WOOD- 2 TYPES:
CEDAR
CEDAR
CEDAR
Cedar has a rich color, and while it may fade over time, you can sustain its color with regular pressure washing. Cedar planks feature a tight grain, and fewer knots than many other kinds of wood, adding to their appeal. It is warm and rich-looking lumber, adding to your home’s overall aesthetic. Cedar is considered a luxury that many homebuyers are willing to pay for. It may only be a slight increase in cost for you, but it could significantly increase your home’s sale price.
PINE
CEDAR
CEDAR
Pine, tends to be much lighter in color, ranging from cream to golden brown. A pine fence is more affordable than other types of wood fencing for a residential fence, so it’s a great option for many home-owners. Pine stands up well in soil, so you don’t need to worry about boards falling. It also does well in humid climates. However, you need to use pressure-treated wood to ensure it lasts.
CHAIN LINK
Pros: Chain link fences are strong, resilient and extremely durable. The open mesh of chain link also means the fence won't block sunlight to gardens and other areas that crave the rays. Cost-wise, chain link is cheaper than wood privacy fencing, lasts longer, and requires no finishing, so its lower cost gets even lower with time.
Cons: Chain link is relatively easy to climb and it's see-through. Standard chain link comes in one color, which is zinc. And painting it is a lot like painting concrete and brick: it turns an inherently low-maintenance material into a three- to five-year pain in the rear.
VINYL
One of the biggest advantages of vinyl fencing is its incredible durability and long-lasting perform. Vinyl fences are virtually maintenance-free, meaning it will not rot, warp, or decay. Many vinyl fence systems also feature decorative caps, rails, and other detailing that add visual interest and a touch of elegance. It can be used for a wide range of fencing applications, from defining property boundaries to creating intimate garden enclosures or even pool safety barriers. A quality vinyl fence can also enhance the security and safety of your home and yard. Vinyl fencing acts as a strong physical barrier, discouraging trespassing and helping to keep children and pets safely contained within your property. Vinyl is 100% recyclable, and many manufacturers now use recycled PVC content in their fence products. This helps to reduce waste and conserve natural resources. When it comes to the bottom line, vinyl fencing proves to be a very cost-effective solution for homeowners. While the initial purchase price of vinyl may be slightly higher than wood or metal fencing, the long-term value it provides more than makes up for the difference.
Wrought Iron
Wrought iron fences have two major advantages. First, they are very durable and can easily stand up to the strongest storms and the heaviest debris. Second, they are stylish and come in a number of classic ornamental looks. Also, being iron, it will eventually begin to rust. This means owners will need to regularly scrape the fence with a wire brush and repaint it to keep up its appearance and durability. Otherwise, your investment will be rusty and unsightly before you know it. Iron is also more expensive than aluminum made fences.
Aluminum
Aluminum fencing is an appealing option because it is affordable, stylish, relatively easy to install, and very versatile. In addition, aluminum is a tough material that maintains its brand-new look for longer and requires little to no maintenance on your part. Aluminum fencing also won’t rust, unlike materials like chain-link or wrought iron.
