Building a Fence: Key Considerations and Expert Tips for Your Backyard Transformation

Planning a home improvement project for your backyard can be daunting, but with an experienced installation crew, wide range of materials, and custom designs, building a fence has never been easier. Whether you have a tight budget or a grand vision, we've got you covered. Read on for key points to consider when planning your new fence installation.

Keep the Peace with Your Neighbors:

Avoid surprises and maintain good relationships with your neighbors by discussing your fencing plans with them in advance. It's important to know your property lines and any rules or regulations set by your HOA. Our expert team at Jensen Fencing will help you identify and mark your property lines accurately, ensuring a smooth process without any future disputes.

Find the Perfect Height:

Privacy and security are key considerations when determining the ideal fence height. Be sure to check your local zoning laws and any HOA restrictions. Our knowledgeable team can assist you in choosing the right height, taking into account the slope of your yard and the neighborhood aesthetics. Don't feel boxed in by a towering fence – consider varying the design to enjoy different views of your surroundings.

Materials that Speak to Your Home:

Your fence should reflect your home's personality, and choosing the right material is crucial. Consider your budget, maintenance requirements, and aesthetic preferences. At Jensen Fencing, we offer a variety of options – wood, aluminum, vinyl, chain link, and pool code fencing. Wood exudes timeless charm but requires occasional maintenance, while vinyl is low maintenance and cost-effective. Our experts will guide you through the pros and cons of each material.

Don't Forget About Gates:

Gate entrances often get overlooked, but they are essential for convenient access to your backyard. Plan for at least two gates – one for pedestrians and another for equipment. A narrow gate might be fine for people, but cumbersome for larger items like furniture or yard equipment. Opt for a 4-foot wide gate to accommodate all your needs.
