Adding a Privacy Fence
If you ask a person what they mean by ‘privacy,’ you’ll get a myriad of answers: social media privacy, medical privacy, personal privacy, and more. But, one thing is sure--we all value our privacy. That’s why adding a privacy fence to a home adds comfort, ambiance, and value. But, a privacy fence also offers more than privacy. Today, we’re going to talk about some of the things a privacy fence provides in addition to privacy.
The value of privacy depends on the homeowner. Some have a pool or backyard sanctuary that they want to be protected from prying eyes. But privacy goes in the other direction, too. The homeowner’s neighbors also have their privacy because their backyard is protected, as well. A homeowner with a privacy fence doesn’t have to look at his neighbor’s gnome collection or watch him play horseshoes. So, a privacy fence can save a homeowner from eyesores.
Sound
A privacy fence muffles and diverts sound. Those who are having a quiet conversation in the backyard don’t need to share it with the neighbors if they have a privacy fence. Because a privacy fence muffles sound, the sounds of traffic, barking dogs, arguing kids, and other audio detritus is dampened.
Other features
A privacy fence has additional features that make it desirable, too. For example, The area within the privacy fence is protected from odors of properties in the surrounding area. It’s not a big deal when it’s a barbecue, but it can be convenient when it’s the dog run.
A privacy fence offers security, as well. The very features which ensure privacy for the home also provide protection. The only thing lacking is a gate, which is easy to rectify. Matching a privacy fence with a high gate is almost a foregone conclusion. With both, a homeowner will have not only privacy but also peace of mind.
Pool code
Pool codes have become more of an issue in recent years, and, in addition to sheltering swimmers from nosy neighbors, a privacy fence will protect wandering children from visiting--or even seeing--a swimming pool. We can help ensure your privacy fence is code compliant, too.
Aesthetics
A privacy fence is beautiful. Because the homeowner selects the material, the rail placement, height, color, toppers, and picket style, they have full control in the finished product. This offers them the chance to be creative and select a privacy fence that encompasses all of the things they love best about a fence. The finished product should be one that not only offers them all of the benefits of privacy fencing but serves as their hand-selected sentinel.
