At Mustang Fencing, one of our core values is providing quality craftsmanship while ensuring our clients feel truly heard. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with a fantastic client, Eric Ceron, on a project that exemplifies this dedication. Eric reached out to us for a major fence upgrade at his home on Galveston Island, Texas. He wanted a 6-foot Double-Sided Privacy Cedar Fence with a Double Coated Camel Stain Finish to enhance both privacy and aesthetics. This was one of those projects where everything clicked — from the initial consultation to the final installation, the entire process was seamless, and the outcome was exceptional.
Initial Consultation and Understanding Eric’s Needs
From our first conversation with Eric, it was clear that he was looking for something special. He wanted a fence that not only provided security and privacy but also matched the natural beauty of his property on Galveston Island. Living in a coastal environment, durability was essential, and cedar wood stood out as an ideal choice due to its resistance to rot and its long-lasting qualities.
Eric also emphasized aesthetics. He wanted the fence to complement the earthy tones of his home, so we discussed various finish options. We ultimately decided on a Camel Stain Finish, which would give the cedar wood a rich, warm look while enhancing its natural grain. The double coating would provide added protection from the elements, ensuring that the fence would maintain its appearance for years to come despite the salty air and humidity typical of Galveston Island.
Customizing the Design for Maximum Privacy and Appeal
Privacy was a key concern for Eric, and we completely understood. We specialize in Privacy Fences because we know how important they are for peace of mind. After discussing various design options, Eric opted for a Double-Sided Privacy Fence. This type of fence is perfect because it looks great from both sides — meaning it would enhance not only Eric’s property but also his neighbors’ views. This decision also aligned with our philosophy of ensuring good relationships between homeowners and their neighbors.
We planned the fence to be 6 feet tall, which is ideal for creating a secure and private outdoor space. The double-sided design, coupled with the rich camel stain, would also elevate the curb appeal of his home. We took measurements of the property, noted the natural landscape, and carefully considered the slope of the yard to ensure a perfect fit.
The Installation Process
Installation day was exciting! Our team arrived on a crisp, sunny morning, ready to bring Eric’s vision to life. One of the unique aspects of working on Galveston Island is the natural landscape — the sandy soil can be tricky, but our crew is experienced with the area and knew exactly how to navigate these challenges.
We started by carefully setting the cedar posts, making sure they were securely placed and aligned. The cedar wood, known for its resilience in harsh environments, was the perfect material for this coastal location. As we installed each panel, the fence began to take shape, and it was immediately clear that the double-sided design was a great choice. The Double Coated Camel Stain Finish added a beautiful warmth to the wood, creating a fence that was not only functional but also a work of art.
One thing we pride ourselves on is communication during the build process. Throughout the day, we kept Eric updated, making sure he was involved in the progress. We also made sure to minimize disruption to his daily routine, completing the project within the expected time frame.
The Final Reveal and Eric’s Reaction
By the end of the project, the transformation was remarkable. The 6-foot Double-Sided Privacy Cedar Fence provided the perfect balance of security, privacy, and aesthetic appeal. The camel stain gave the cedar a gorgeous hue that truly enhanced the look of the entire property. When Eric came out to see the finished fence, his reaction made all our hard work worth it.
He couldn’t stop admiring the craftsmanship and attention to detail. The fence not only met his expectations but exceeded them. Eric commented on how much he appreciated the thoughtfulness of the design, particularly how the fence looked equally good from both sides, a feature his neighbors were quick to praise as well.
