There are fun and creative ways to match your new fence to your existing landscape.
There is an unbelievably wide variety of fencing options available. There are vinyl, wooden, and different types of metal in a variety of styles. Within these materials and styles, there are various colors available as well. Metal fences can be coated, wood can be stained, and vinyl can be manufactured in different colors. So how do you make your fence match the rest of your property? We can help with that!
What Style Are You Going For?
It is important to keep your home’s style in mind. If you’re going for a homier vibe,
you may choose a wooden or vinyl picket fence. If your home’s style is a bit more
regal, maybe a wrought iron fence would work better. When shopping around, keep
a picture of your home on you to hold up with various options so you can get a
better visual on how these might look on your property.
Community Association Regulations
Most neighborhoods have rules that limit fencing choices. They typically want more
“traditional” colors and styles to maintain a more uniform look in the community.
Find out what these rules are before choosing your fence to avoid any
unpleasantness later.
Talk to Your Neighbor
If your property shares a border with your next-door neighbor, it’s especially
important to talk to them before making any fencing decisions. Do you only want to
paint or stain one side of the fence? You can do that, but you may not like how it
looks. If you and your neighbor can agree on a fence choice, it will make both of
your lives far more pleasant.
Blend the Color
If you don’t have a community association telling you what to do, it’s still not a good
idea to paint your fence yellow. Yes, that shows you’re a very creative person and
creativity should be celebrated, but if it doesn’t match your plants or your home do
you really want to keep re-painting every time you decide to change your garden?
