Types of fencing

It is always a hard decision picking the style of fence that is pleasing to the eye and will fit your needs. There are so many options available! The four main types of residential fencing we install are wood, vinyl, chain link, and aluminum. Depending on the reason you are installing a fence, we can help make your fence decision easier. 

If your are installing a fence to protect your pets or keep unwanted pets out; wood, chain link, or vinyl are great options. Chain link is affordable, hard for a pet to chew through, add a bottom rail to the chain link fence and it would take Houdini to escape from it. If you have a prey driven dog, we always recommend a privacy fence so they can not see what’s on the other side. This helps decrease the temptation to take off after the neighborhood cat roaming around. 

If you’re looking to add privacy or just do not want to see the neighbors from your back deck, vinyl fence or wood fence are great options. Each one can be customized with different colors and styles. I always say if you can think of it, David ( company owner) can create it! There are so many custom wood privacy styles I tell our customers to browse Pinterest to gather ideas of what they like. Show David a picture and let him take it from there bringing it to life! Vinyl fencing comes in a variety of options. You can add different rails to it, lattice the top, or change the post caps to a style you want. This is also a wonderful choice if you do not want to maintenance a fence. 

Aluminum fence is beautiful around a pool! It’ll help keep the kids out and give you an extra layer of security. A lot of HOAs will go for this option as well. I always tell customers to check with their HOA prior to making any fencing decisions.
