This comprehensive fence guide will lead you toward choosing the best privacy fence for your home.

Adding a privacy fence to your home is a great way to make your home safer for your pets and family, but there are many other benefits as well. Privacy fences can help to increase the value of your home, should you choose to sell. They also can help reduce the cost of your homeowner’s insurance, depending on your policy. Not to mention, they can add a beautiful touch to your home and yard that helps to define your property.

As you begin to consider the different options, you will quickly realize that there is a lot of variety in privacy fence material and styles. Styles range from highly ornamental to extremely secure. The best way to find the right style is to work with a professional to see what your community allows and what will give you the results you desire. Along with the style options, you will also need to consider the material that will work best for your home. This comprehensive fence guide will lead you toward choosing the best privacy fence for your home.

Wood

Wood has become the standard for privacy fences thanks to its strength, durability, and aesthetic. Depending on the type of wood, there are different strengths and weaknesses. It is important to note that all wood requires regular maintenance to keep it clean, free of rot, warping, and pests.

Vinyl

When it comes to low maintenance fencing, vinyl is an excellent option as it doesn’t attract pests and it will not rot or warp. However, it still needs regular cleaning and cannot be painted like other options. It does come in a variety of colors, which allows it to be matched to the color of your home.

Bamboo

As the most budget and environmentally friendly option, bamboo is a unique fencing alternative that might be interesting to those in warmer climates. Unlike wood and vinyl, bamboo does not hold up well in colder climates and may not last as long. However, it is a stunning and unique privacy fencing option that might be right for you.
