Good Neighbor Cedar Fencing in Lake Stevens, WA
Good neighbor cedar fencing is designed to look the same on both sides, making it ideal for shared property lines. Alternating boards provide privacy while offering a balanced, attractive appearance for neighbors.
Why Lake Stevens Homeowners Choose Good Neighbor Fencing
When building on a shared property line with a neighbor, nobody wants to look at the 'ugly side' with exposed horizontal stringers. Our Lake Stevens Good Neighbor fence uses an alternating board-on-board or centered-panel construction so both properties enjoy an identical, finished cedar face. The overlapping picket design also allows wind to pass through gently, dramatically reducing wind load during winter storms.
Unlike prefabricated panels sold at big-box home improvement stores that rack and warp on sloped ground, Light Rock builds every good neighbor fence stick-built on-site in your yard. This allows our carpenters to follow natural Lake Stevens terrain contours, align every top cap cleanly, and reinforce critical wind-bearing posts.
Key Specifications & Features
- 100% symmetrical design—identical finished face on both sides

- Overlapping boards maintain privacy while allowing storm airflow

Light Rock Advantage: By allowing high Pacific Northwest winds to filter through the alternating board overlap, Good Neighbor fences experience up to 35% less lateral wind pressure.
