The Clear Cedar Difference
For anyone who wants the border of their yard to look cleaner and more refined, the clear cedar fence board upgrade is one of our favorite options to offer. The absence of knots creates a uniform, elegant appearance that transforms your fence from functional to exceptional.
Pristine Visual Appeal
Knot-free boards create a clean, uniform appearance that enhances your property's curb appeal and gives your fence a premium, refined look.
Long-Lasting Uniformity
Clear cedar boards maintain their consistent appearance over time, staying more uniform for years compared to standard tight knot cedar.
No Falling Knots
Even the highest grade tight knot Western Red Cedar is prone to having knots fall out over time. Clear cedar eliminates this issue entirely.
Better Stain Acceptance
Clear cedar accepts stain more evenly without the variation that knots create, resulting in a more consistent, professional finish.
Premium Western Red Cedar
Still harvested from the same premium Western Red Cedar known for its natural durability and resistance to decay, just without knots.
Perfect for Discerning Homeowners
Clear cedar is ideal for properties where aesthetics matter. Whether you're preparing to sell, want to enhance your outdoor living space, or simply take pride in your home's appearance, clear cedar delivers the premium look you're after.


The Knot Problem
While tight knot Western Red Cedar is a quality material, knots present several challenges over the life of your fence:
- •Knots can shrink, loosen, and eventually fall out, leaving holes in your fence
- •Knots create visual inconsistency and can make staining uneven
- •Areas around knots are more prone to cracking and splitting
- •Knots can weep sap, especially in hot weather
- •Larger knots can create weak points in the board
An Investment in Beauty
Clear cedar represents a premium upgrade that pays dividends in curb appeal and longevity. Your fence becomes a showcase feature rather than just a boundary marker, adding value to your property and pride to your home.
