Adding a fence to your property using the right fence contractors will add value to your property and to your lifestyle. According to Rehab Financial Group, it is estimated that stone and metal fences come with a 70% return on your investment, and other fence types can deliver a 50% return on your investment. Fences provide security,  privacy, and enhance your property. Fence contractors offer a wide range of fence types to meet every need. These three tips will help you to choose the right fence for your home.

1. What Do You Want Your Fence To Provide?

Most fence contractors will tell you that privacy fences are among the most popular types of fences. Privacy fences are available in wood and in vinyl. The most popular height for these types of fences is six feet. If you are trying to keep prying eyes out of your backyard, a privacy fence is a great option. If you are less interested in privacy and more interested in keeping a clear view of your surroundings while keeping your pets in the yard, a chain-link fence is a good option. If you want to go higher end, a wrought-iron fence is a good option. In other words, before you make the right choice, you have to figure out what services you want the fence to provide.

2. Vinyl, Wood, or Metal?

Not only will you have to choose the shape and size of your fence, but the fence contractors will also give you material options to choose from. If you are looking forward to a no-maintenance type fence then wood is not the best option for you. Wood needs to be maintained. That means periodic sealing, staining, or painting. Vinyl requires no more than a hose down to keep it looking great. Metal is the most durable of the materials but it will occasionally require attention. Ultimately, choosing which material is ideal for your fence comes down to your lifestyle and how much time you want to dedicate to maintenance.

3. Budget May Direct Your Choices

In virtually any home improvement decision, your budget is the driving force. In many cases, homeowners choose their fencing style and material based on their budget before considering any other factors. Speaking with trusted fence contractors is a good way to learn how much fence you can afford. The right fence contractors will have options that fit every budget.
