Selecting the Right Fence for Your Home

Here at Greenhill Fencing Inc., our fence contractors in Montgomery County, PA and its surrounding areas are passionate about helping customers select the right fencing styles and layouts for their properties. To help you decide which design is most appropriate for your home, we describe four varieties below and the advantages that each of them offer:

1. PVC. When it comes to PVC fencing designs, you can choose from a lattice top, privacy or standard picket fence with either a spindle, flat or gothic top; all of which are virtually maintenance free and are built to withstand whatever the elements might throw its way. Moreover, you can have confidence in knowing that this style won’t break down or begin to fade because of the sun. Most customers generally install PVC fencing in their backyards to promote a safer, more private outdoor environment for their families, friends and guests.

2. Chain-link. Available in a variety of colors, chain-link fencing is the perfect option for those customers who are mainly interested in enclosing a section of their property. These fences are highly durable, require little to no maintenance, and still offer an ideal level of visibility. So if you’re determined to create a boundary for pets, a garden, overgrown shrubs or anything else, chain-link fencing will satisfy your needs.

3. Aluminum. Providing the “look” of wrought iron without the high cost, aluminum fencing continues to be a popular choice among those customers wanting to follow through with a pool fence installation in Chester County, PA and its surrounding areas. This variety of fencing is typically available in both black and white. Like chain-link fences, aluminum fences are designed to function more as an enclosure than a means of privacy. No matter where you install an aluminum fence, though, you can trust that it’ll work to improve your property’s overall curb appeal.

4. Wood. From lattice top, spaced picket and shadowbox to solid board, spaced picket and post & rail, there are so many different wooden fence styles to choose from. Although there’s no denying that these materials will eventually deteriorate due to the weathering effects of Mother Nature, nothing beats the traditional, natural “look” of a wooden fence. Whether you intend to implement a boundary, gain more privacy, or improve the security of your property, you can trust that any of the wooden fence designs will suit your needs.

Now that you have a better idea as to which style of fencing will work best for your property, it’s time to take the next big step: receive a free estimate from the professionals at Greenhill Fencing Inc. by filling out a contact form on their website or by calling 267-329-3005.

Ready to enjoy all the benefits of having a fence on your property? Here are ten reasons to move forward with a fencing project this winter:

If you live on a busy road and are forced to deal with headlights lighting up the inside of your home, a fencing contractor in Montgomery County can help you feel less exposed to the outside world.

Maybe you want to put up a divider between you and your bothersome neighbor. You might be a little hesitant at first to install a fence but, in the long run, it’ll make for a much more peaceful relationship.

Your pets are your life and you’re determined to create an enclosure for your cats and dogs, so they can have some freedom, run around and enjoy nature all day long.

Everyone loves your huge backyard; but, right near the property line, there’s a bunch of shrubbery and poison ivy that your guests don’t usually end up realizing they’d touched after leaving the party.

Finally, you installed that pool in your backyard that you’ve been talking about for years. Well, now it’s time to call a fencing company in Montgomery County, PA to install a pool fence—because that’s the law.

There’s a beautiful garden on your property where you grow vegetables and herbs. Now, you love it and work on it all the time, but it’s overflowing and desperately needs to be contained.

You plan on you moving out of your current home in a few years and are now beginning to believe that installing a fence will improve its curb-appeal.

Or, maybe you love where you live and want to stay there forever. That’s why you want to improve the aesthetics of your home and become the envy of all your neighbors.

Let’s say you just moved into a new home in a neighborhood that you didn’t realize was the the shortcut between the two busiest roads in town. Anyway, you want your kids to play in the yard, but you’re scared that you’re just way too close to a busy street.

After a minor incident, you’re determined to improve the safety and security of your home by putting up a tall border around your entire property.
