Types Of Privacy Fencing Materials You Should Consider

4 November 2021 by Devon Ramos

When you think of having a privacy fence installed, you may think of a traditional wood slat fence. In some cases, you may consider a more modern vinyl material fencing instead. The truth is, these are not the only two privacy fencing options you have. There are several other options that may be ideal for your home, landscaping, and lifestyle. Here are a few of the other material options to consider and what to know about each option. 

Living Fencing

Living fencing deals with any fencing material that can be considered as plant life and alive. For example, you may have a fencing contractor that uses natural bushes and vining plants to build a fence. This means that you can have a fence throughout the year, avoid artificial or manufactured materials, and tend to your fence through normal plant maintenance. This is ideal for people who live in a suburban area and want to have some privacy from their fencing without the industrial look of fencing. The type of living fencing you can have will greatly depend on your location and weather conditions. Your fencing contractor can suggest options for you during a consultation. 

Horizontal Bamboo Fencing

Horizontal bamboo fencing uses a fencing method and a fencing material you may not be aware of. Bamboo is a sustainable material that is part of the grass family though is often confused as a sustainable wood material. Bamboo can be cut and laid in a horizontal pattern to give a unique look to your fencing. This gives you privacy, a unique horizontal pattern, and the use of a sustainable material that is ideal for eco-minded homeowners. Bamboo is also durable and can hold up under most moderate to mild weather conditions. 

Decorative Brick Fencing

If you want something that offers privacy, is durable, and is easy to maintain, then you may want to consider decorative brick fencing. The brick can be treated for various weather conditions. It can also be painted or kept in its natural color state. Decorative bricks come in various styles including cut patterns and designs as well as multi-colored options that can be placed in different patterns. These stacked patterns can ultimately create a fencing option that is unique, durable, and offers the privacy you may need. 

These are just a few of the materials and methods available for your privacy fencing project. If you are ready to move forward with your plans, contact your fencing contractor. They can help discuss the options you have and determine if they will work for your landscape. They can also answer any questions you have regarding the fencing and installation process.
