Fences are good on their own, but adding a personal touch to your residential fence can make it look great.
Choosing the right fencing for your home aesthetic goes a long way in elevating the look of your residential property. There are several different materials and many different styles available to make it so you can find the perfect fence for your home. However, sometimes it’s fun to head off the beaten path and try out other avenues. There are several different options to be considered if you decide you want to personalize your residential fence.
Paint
A wood fence has a great look, even when it’s simply left uncovered or stained. However, if you find your fence needs a little pick-me-up, a coat of paint can go a long way in making your fence feel more like it’s yours. You can choose to paint the exterior, interior, or both sides of your fence. If you have kids, you could paint it in a rainbow pattern. If you want something more stylish, you can match the color to accents on your home such as shutters or the front door. A painted fence can add a pop of brightness to an otherwise drab area.
Powder Coat
Paint won’t do the trick with metal fences, but they can be powder coated. Powder coating is a special method for adding color along with a protective outer layer to metal objects, including fencing. Fencing companies offer a limited range of powder coated metal fences in standard colors, but custom powder coating can be done in any color or finish if you’re looking for something more specific.
Landscaping
If you don’t want to customize your fence directly, you can add landscaping embellishments around it to make it livelier. Flowers, shrubs, and bushes can all be added around a fence line to give it a pop of color, luxury, or even intrigue. Perimeter landscaping can be very beautiful and greatly elevate the look of any property or fence. This also hides the contact point of the fence with the ground, making your fence look more like it was grown rather than installed. The visual effect can be very appealing.
