Best Fence For New Home

Settling in to your newly built home but suddenly realize you need a fence because a pond is too close and inviting for your kids? Perhaps your dog can’t be trusted to stay in the yard?

Whatever the reason, you find yourself looking for a local, experienced fence contractor who can help you select the right fence for your needs.

Midwest Fence has been building Twin Cities fences since 1947 and has a team of experienced fence specialists who consult with our clients to make sure they have the fence they need and want.

First Decide On A Privacy Fence

The first step is to know if you’d like the fence to offer privacy. Privacy wood fences are a typical choice, particularly for new homes.

Privacy fences have no space between slats and, at six to eight feet tall restrict sight lines and access.

Wood fences offer a style appreciated by many homeowners as wood offers a unique look that can be customized in a variety of ways.

Get Look Of Wood With PVC Or Composite

Trex FenceWhile treated oak fence posts and slats will withstand weather, regular maintenance is recommended to make the wood last.

A similar look to wood can be found with PVC fencing. Posts are strong and the material can withstand the elements, particularly if not in full sun all days.

Composite materials continue to come to market, providing a wood like appearance and functionality — nails and saws are used — but the boards are made from recycled fibers.

Options If Privacy Fence Isn’t Required

If privacy isn’t a top priority, and you’d like the breeze and natural elements to flow through the fence there are a variety of options.

They include a picket fence made of wood, vinyl, composite or aluminum. Chain link fencing offers similar functionality to picket fences.

These fences provide an open feel, don’t typically need to be as tall and encloses pets and children.

Choosing The Best Fence For A Family

When it comes to choosing the best yard fence for your family there are many things that come into consideration and Midwest Fence has all the choices to cover exactly what your family might need.

A chain link fence is an option, and a popular choice for many reasons. More affordable than wood or iron, a chain link fence can feel transparent and can allow the light in for a family that does a lot of gardening. Galvanized steel make these fences durable and strong, and a good choice for the type of climate changes that come in the Midwest area. If installed correctly, the chain link fence is virtually maintenance-free, needing only a hosing off with soap and water.

But some families might want a little more coverage than a chain link fence can offer. Another option is the wood fence — either privacy or wood picket fence. Wood fencing can easily adapt to any shape of a yard and is therefore very versatile. Fence posts are installed in concrete and are very sturdy. …

Pros and Cons of Trex Fencing

The traits that make Trex fencing desirable include durability and low maintenance and also a lasting beauty. Trex fences offer durability and performance that you can’t get from wood and it comes in a variety of color and style choices.

The traits that lead to not using Trex fencing include the cost, some limitations in design and color and installation can be difficult. Composite fences typically come in prefabricated panels in a fixed size and design. Customizing them is difficult and can void a warranty and painting composite materials is tricky.

While those are generally considered the cons, they can also be viewed as a positive because Trex fences require little or no maintenance beyond cleaning with a hose. …
