What Is Board-On-Batten Wood Fencing?

Board-on-batten fencing is a classic vertical wood fence style where wide vertical boards are installed with narrow battens covering the seams between them.

Unlike basic vertical fencing, board-on-batten fencing offers added rigidity and a more finished look, making it a long-term upgrade.

We couldn’t be happier with our new deck, railings and custom gate. The quality is excellent, exactly what we wanted. Working with Star Fencing was the right choice and we will be choosing them again. You won’t be disappointed!

Star fencing replaced a section of my fence that was destroyed in a storm. The Star crew came in and did a great job all in half a day. Installers were very profesional, and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend Star Fencing for all your fence and deck work. Ron and Caroline

After several bad experiences with other contractors, working with Star Fencing was a breath of fresh air. They were a pleasure to work with from start to finish — always on time, did exactly what they promised, and handled all the permit and paperwork bureaucracy for me without any hassle. The quality of the work is outstanding — both the fence and the deck look absolutely fantastic. They were meticulous about cleaning up every day, leaving nothing behind, and were even careful not to damage the grass. It’s rare to find contractors this professional and reliable. I couldn’t recommend them enough!

Highly Recommend! This is the only company to consider! We feel that not only did we receive a quality deck and fence, the level of service provided by the Star Fencing team was beyond our expectations. Star Fencing cares about their customers and they take great pride in their work.

the crew from Star Fencing arrived on monday am and began work on the new deck. by the end of the day the old deck was gone and the new one had the floor completed. Tuesday the deck was finished by mid afternoon and looks fabulous. highly recommend Star Fencing if you are thinking of having a deck either built or replaced.
