Early Spring Fencing Thoughts

Was Wiarton Willie correct or are we experiencing “Fool Spring?” in Ontario? Nevertheless, perhaps your thoughts have turned to updating your fence when you know winter is definitely over. This is a good time for a refresher about your fencing materials.

If the fence is to surround a backyard, chances are it will be wood. It’s cost-effective, quite easy to maintain through the years, can make space more private and you can stain or paint it to suit your taste. Aluminum fencing may be used as a way to define property lines as it quite affordable and the install is easy. But you should know that its use doesn’t make your backyard private. These facts also come in to play with using wrought iron but it’s one of the more expensive choices even though it’s very appealing visually. Aluminum and wrought iron fencing are known to be used in the front of a home. Chain link fencing is the least expensive fence that is used to define property lines, its installation is fairly easy and its quite low maintenance. The use of vinyl in fencing is gaining popularity these days. Vinyl material is durable and easy to maintain. Depending on the vinyl fence you choose it can offer privacy and noise resistance.

You’re probably wondering about the cost and that if you have the budgeted the correct amount for a new install or upgrade. Perhaps your neighbours are thinking about their fencing needs. This could be the time to have a conversation. A lot of the cost will depend on the materials used, and the businesses you speak with discuss your needs and your budget. Each type of fence has a cost and if you go with a wooden fence, the type of lumber used will make a difference when pricing is discussed. Don’t forget about your budget. You’ll see photos of aesthetically pleasing fences, but each type has a different cost attached. A trusting fencing company will be aware of your needs, wants and, of course, budget. There may be extra costs that you’re not aware of, so ask what they may be and how much the cost would be.  You should be prepared financially for any eventuality. When you have made the decision of the type of fencing that would meet your needs, ask when the installation would start. Also discuss how long the installation process will be from start to finish. While interviewing fencing businesses, inquire how the work is actually performed. Some inconvenience may occur. This would be good to know if you have kids and pets that need to be looked after.
