If you’re looking for fence installation Columbus Ohio, then you may be wondering about the different options. A wood privacy fence and chain link fence are the two types of fences you see probably see most often in your neighborhood, across the street, or in the surrounding area. The truth is, they are both excellent options for a given purpose and are quite reliable. That’s where many people get caught up between the two and don’t know which one to choose. Don’t worry because Columbus Fence Co is here to help you choose the best option given your circumstances.

When it comes to the curb appeal of your home, wood fencing does an excellent job to beautify and add value to your home.

Wood fencing is very versatile as it can feature different designs and endless finishing options. Depending on your climate, you can also use different kinds of wood, some of the most popular include spruce, cedar, and treated pine. Each will stand up to the elements a bit differently and provide a different look and feel to your home.

Maintaining both of these fences is easy and not too costly. With a wood fence, you will only need regular checks to ensure there is no damage, and the design is still in shape. You must check to see if the nails are in place and powerwash periodically to maintain their beauty. Columbus Fence recommends that fences be restained every 3-5 years, depending on the climate and exposure to the elements. 

Chain link does require periodic checks to remove any rust that may be present. If applicable, vinyl fabric inserts in your chain link fences require even less maintenance.
