    In Canada we like to make sure the pretty side of the fence faces outwards not towards the property- this adds property value by making the yards look better from the street- this also ensures hardware cant be tampered with from the ourside- part of code especially if there's a pool ect.. Beautifuly built and looks great!

      Where I live in the US, it’s REQUIRED to put the finished side out, or they make you take it down and do it over. Obviously this is different from place to place, but people like to think their rules/experience must be true for everyone, everywhere. 😂

    Ready seal cedar color is what I used on my own fence but its been about 3 or 4 years and needs a new coat already. However, i put Cabot on my deck and after a year it still looks like the day i put it on. Cordovian leather color semi solid. When applying you can tell the thickness of the stain is much higher quality than the watery ready seal. I have never used Thompsons Water Seal so not sure on that one.

    What’s with the ladies’ ear protection? (J/k; those who know, know.)
    Screws down there, eh? Here we have to use nails because screws will break with the extreme (-45F to 115F, 5%-100% humidity) range. We use nails so they can move around a LITTLE. My fence with nails is great; my DIY neighbors’ with screws have half their boards/sections popped every year.

    Nice work. The only upgrade would be to use brush-killer on the fence two or more weeks before trimming. If you spray-kill the plants/vines & wait long enough they'll pull off by hand. In ivy situations I'd want 90 or more days for the plants to dry b/c somehow it always get in my eye.

We couldn't use the neighbor's yard for installation. The back portion, which faces the apartment building across from me, we placed the boards on the outside, as it just looks much better.

    If I understand correctly, the pickets you used are not treated. I'm considering using untreated pine on my future fence plus staining and sealing after installation. Since the pickets are not in contact with the ground I'm not sure what the problem would be with this but many people object to it. What do you think? Great video Handyman, thank you.

    I mean to each their own but I probably would have not left the fence posts exposed for aesthetics. Maybe no one sees that but I think building some wood box posts with 1x6s and 1x4s would have been slick. But also I wouldn’t have hired a handy man to build the fence. I would just build it myself so who am I to say anything at all. Especially coming from the guy that waits for the fence panel or pickets to blow over due to rotting, hack it back up, then wait for it completely disintegrate before replacing jt.
