Thinking about a new fence this season? A well-built fence can quietly add value to your home by improving privacy, safety, and curb appeal—three things buyers (and appraisers) notice.
• Privacy = usable outdoor space. A 6' wood privacy fence turns your yard into an “extra room” for relaxing, pets, and kids.
• Safety & security. Enclosed yards reduce concerns for pets/kids and deter cut-through foot traffic.
• Curb appeal. Clean lines and the right style (wood, vinyl, chain-link, ornamental) make the exterior feel finished and cared for.
• Fewer “projects” at sale time. Proper post depth, braced gates, and quality hardware reassure inspectors and buyers.
Local tips:
• Set posts to correct depth for Monroe County soils.
• Plan gate width for mowers and deliveries.
• Stain/seal wood after a short dry-down to extend life and keep it looking great.
