Fences and Hurricanes: What You Should Know

Now that hurricane season has ended, it’s the time to assess your fencing situation and consider upgrading to a fence that can withstand the possible storms of next season. An upgraded, hurricane-ready fence from Best Fence Company of Jacksonville will last for years and can be fabricated to meet wind load requirements.

Wood is No Good

Do not let your fence end up like this one above. A major downside of wooden fences is their ability to withstand Florida’s natural elements. Wooden fences are prone to damage including termites, mold and rot. They are especially susceptible to weather damage be it heavy rain, strong winds and more. A wooden fence is no match for a hurricane with 70 mph winds. Best Fence Company of Jacksonville understands their consumers’ needs for a fence that can "weather" the elements, which is why we offer alternative fencing options.

“With Hurricane Matthew passing and lots of trees down, we are pleased to inform that our fence is in perfect condition.”- Kati, Best Fence Client

Vinyl Could Be Vital

Vinyl fences are growing in popularity. At Best Fence, vinyl fences are one of our most popular fence styles. We are proud of our vinyl fencing because it is maintenance free, highly durable and constructed with top quality, heavy-walled extrusions, all of which provide a beautiful fence that will remain beautiful and sturdy for years.

Compared to wood fences, vinyl fences will not deteriorate, chip, warp, crack or peel. Vinyl fences are even virtually impervious to Florida’s humid weather and saltwater environments. Homeowners do not have to worry about vinyl fences fitting in with their home’s style because each vinyl fence is customizable. Check out some beautiful examples on our website.

Aluminum and Vinyl Fences

Aluminum All the Way

Another great option is Aluminum fencing, which is also a more durable material than wood fencing. Like our vinyl fencing, aluminum fencing is manufactured for Florida’s harsh climates. Aluminum and vinyl fencing are maintenance free and will not deteriorate extensively over time. Our aluminum fences have undergone intensive salt environment testing and surpasses the 3000 hour salt spray test.

Aluminum fences are double coated in a polyester powder, which is stronger than baked on enamel finishes on other fence styles. Homeowners do not have to compromise design or creativity when choosing an aluminum fence because Best Fence offers a variety of adornments to personalize each aluminum fence.

If you have a wooden fence and are ready to upgrade to a hurricane-proof fence, Best Fence Company of Jacksonville is here to work with you to create a beautiful and sturdy fence.

What Makes A Good Neighbor?

Robert Frost made the phrase “good fences make good neighbors” famous in his poem about two neighbors who mend a wall dividing their homes.

Why Fall is the Best Season to Build a Fence

Fall is here, pumpkin spice drinks are everywhere, and the scent of cinnamon wafts through your home.

The interior of your home embraces fall and its cooler temperatures and warmer colors, but your lawn can feel dull after the summer. Spruce it up with a brand new residential fence to complete your home’s fall look. Get a head start on your neighbors who may wait until the spring to start enhancing their homes as they prepare for those summer barbecues. Here are four reasons fall is the prime time to build a fence.

Less Hassle, More Enjoyment

Spring is a busy time for everyone from families, couples and singletons. Keep your spring time hustle and bustle to a minimum by jump starting your fence building/construction before the mayhem begins in April. While you’re stressing out over spring cleaning, spring breaks and summer preparations, you won’t have to worry about your yard. It will have already been improved upon with a well-crafted fence, so you can enjoy the outdoors and entertain your friends and family.

Pool Ready in Time for Summer

Pools are a great feature of a home, especially in the summertime. Whether you have kids or just want to enjoy the outdoors lounging by the pool, enclosing the pool area with a fence is always an important addition. If you build your fence in the Fall, you won't find yourself in a situation where you're trying to install it at the last minute later on when the Sun is back and the kids are melting! Don't wait and take care of it now. Best Fence Company of Jacksonville guarantees approval by county inspectors and will work with your Homeowners Association or Management Company to ensure your fence meets any covenants and restrictions in your community.

Seasonal Promotions

Best Fence is currently running some promotion, when you purchase 150 linear feet or more! Now you can save $100 off of your project whether it is a fence to enclose a pool or one to enclose your entire yard. For those customers who want an aluminum fence, Best Fence will arch your second aluminum gate (as a decorative feature) at no additional cost to you. For those customers who desire a vinyl fence, we’re offering a “Victorian Stake” Lattice Accent to your vinyl fence, should you want to add a bit more pizzazz to your fence.

Scenery Is Everything

The autumn leaves falling down, filling your freshly fenced-in yard will make for a picture perfect scene. With a fence and gate from Best Fence, your home is sure to be the stand-out home in the neighborhood. Don’t let the prime season pass you by!

Most Popular Fences in Jacksonville

At Best Fence Company of Jacksonville, we frequently are asked what the most popular fence styles are in Jacksonville. While there are myriad options available with Best Fence, there are a select group that we consider to be both our favorites and very popular choices. These are styles that can be seen already in use all over Jacksonville and St. Johns County, in neighborhoods like Nocatee, Durbin Creek, Bartram Park and all around Northeast Florida. Take a look at some of our top options below and keep in mind many of these options are often available in others colors like black, bronze, white, and tan.

Aluminum - Ascot

This aluminum fence style is a popular choice in Northeast Florida for a couple of key reasons. Not only does it have the smaller railing system at the bottom to help keep small pets inside your yard, but it is also a fence that is frequently built according to Florida pool codes. When building a pool in Florida, you must enclose it with a fence that is meets pool codes. Best Fence Company is very knowledgeable about these pool codes and will help guide you towards the best and proper decision on your pool fence.

Victoria with Quad Finials - Aluminum

If you are looking for an ornamental touch to your fence, many clients opt to include finials, which are the decorative adornments on the top. The Quad Finial pictured here is one of the more popular designs. Finials, like our fences, are available in multiple colors including black, brown, white, and even green.

Baron Picket - Vinyl

Home owners looking for a white picket fence style for their home have enjoyed this Baron style of vinyl fencing. You do not need to use actual wood to get a picket fence look and feel to your yard! Vinyl is much more durable and requires far less maintenance. MANY more picket style fences can be seen here.

Privacy Tongue & Groove - Vinyl

This fence is a popular choice for those who are looking for privacy in their yard. Another reason why people choose this fence is because it will not corrode and is virtually impervious to Florida's hot and humid weather. Vinyl fencing is especially great for homes by the beach since it has surpassed our 3,000 hour saltwater spray test.

Backyard Projects: DIY Garden Pots

From pots, garden boxes, seeds, fertilizer, and more...gardens can be expensive and confusing! Have you ever planted something then realized you didn’t label it or you have no idea what it is after it has sprouted? Well not anymore, here are 3 DIY Ideas that will help make your garden flourish with beauty and functionality! The best part is that they are inexpensive.

Project Number 1: Chalkboard Painted Pot

Materials: Clay Pot, Chalkboard Paint, Stencils, Pencil, Painters Tape, and Chalk.

First make sure your clay pot is clean of any dirt, dust, soil, water, etc. then you are going to trace the stencil of your choice onto the pot with a pencil. The next step is to place painters tape on the outline of your trace to ensure you get perfect paint lines. After that is complete, paint away and label the pot as desired!

You will never lose track of your vegetables, herbs, or flowers again!
Project Number 2: Space Saver Veggies

This project is a great way to save space and to keep pesky critters out of your flowers or vegetables.

Materials: a shoe organizer that hangs and a hanger of your choice.

Simply take the shoe organizer you found at a bargain store, under your bed or a new one you bought and fill each opening where a shoe is supposed to go with soil and other wanted nutrients. Then simply plant the seed or plant and hang on the fence or a hanger stand of your choice. With this simple garden trick you never have to worry about your garden getting mowed over, dug up, or smashed by kids, lawn men, or even spouses!

Project Number 3: Upside Down Tomato Plant Hanger

This project can be a little tricky but it’s green, inexpensive, and your tomatoes will forever thank you!

Materials: Small Tomato Plant, Empty 2 liter plastic bottle, Duct Tape, Single Hole Punch, String, Soil, and Sharp Knife or Scissors.

An Upside Down Tomato Plant Hanger is easy, once the 2 liter bottle is empty. The first step is to cut the bottom off of the empty 2 liter. A good place to cut the bottle is right above where the 5 little nubs are at the bottom. Then you are going to tape the edges of the bottle you just cut so it is not sharp. After that, go ahead and punch holes through the tape and bottle with the single hole puncher. Remember to make as many holes as you need to hang it and to make the holes big enough to hold your string. Finally you are going to put the tomato plant through the bottle. The easiest way to do this is to start from the bottom of the bottle and send the plant through the lid of the bottle. Last, add soil and hang where the plant can get the desired sunlight.

What Fence Is Right For You?

They may be cute, cuddly, and fluffy but are rabbits and other critters destroying your hard work? Here are a few tricks that may help keep these critters out of your garden. Placing an inflatable snake around your garden can keep the rabbits from even thinking about getting close to it. The trick is to make the snake look real and move it around the garden often. Another strategy would be adding coffee grounds to your garden.

Coffee grounds add nutrients to soil and it deters pests such as picky deer, slugs and even cats. The last quick trick up our sleeve is soap. Cut your fresh smelling soap up and put it along the outsides of your garden. The smell may help keep the squirrels from eating your precious fruits and veggies you have worked so hard to grow.

Clean the Fence Regularly The most efficient way to clean your vinyl fence will be to mix some non-abrasive house hold detergent with water and gently sponge away any dirt or grime that’s accumulated on the fence.

Regularly Inspect the Posts and Post Caps
Sometimes environmental factors like excess heat or cold can loosen posts and the stability of the fence. It’s important to walk the fence line and double check the condition of the posts.

Fence Etiquette to Avoid Disputes with Neighbors

One of the best ways to be a good neighbor is to practice proper fence etiquette. When you follow local zoning regulations, make respectful choices, and maintain communication with your neighbors, you’ll be able to install a new fence and stay on amicable terms with them. As you plan your next fence project, keep the following tips in mind.

Zoning Regulations and HOA Rules
It’s important to check local regulations for setbacks, height, and additions restrictions. Keep in mind that there are usually other rules for corner lots. Look into your Home Owner Association (HOA) rules as well.

Property Lines
Before you put up a new fence, talk to your neighbors. Make sure that you know where the property lines are and let them know that you’ll be doing a little construction. Some people find it beneficial to put their fences one or two feet inside of the property lines to avoid disputes. The more proactive you are at communicating with your neighbors, the better.

Positioning
Keep in mind, it’s considered best practice to put the better side of a fence facing towards the neighbors. Put yourself in your their shoes and think how you would feel if you had to look at the ugly side of their brand new fence every day. You don’t want to be the kind of person who does this to the other neighborhood residents.

Maintenance
Every fence requires some level of maintenance. Some materials, such as wood, require more frequent cleaning and re-sealing and other materials, such as vinyl. Even when neighbors aren’t thrilled about your fence, they are less likely to complain if it’s attractive. If you need help on fence cleaning advice, check out our website.

5 Things to Know Before You Build a Fence

Know What Type of Fence You’re Looking For

Before you install a fence, its important to first ask yourself the purpose of the fence. Are you trying to add a decorative element to your home? Maybe you’re trying to create privacy for your family? Whatever your purpose, a fence can function in many ways so do your research and choose one that works for you!

Do Your Research Into Building Codes

Installing a fence is not as easy as buying the material and putting the labor in. Its crucial that you research your homeowners and neighborhood association codes. These regulate the rules for fence height, look and material. Its also important to outline your property line so the fence is properly installed on your actual property and not your neighbors.

Be Courteous of Your Neighbors

To avoid any confrontation down the road, it’s important to be open and up front with your neighbors about your plans to install a fence. If your neighbor decides to share the fence, make such agreements in writing and only after the property boundaries have been professionally determined.

Consider the Climate Factor

When deciding which fence to choose, factor in the climate aspect of where you live. In colder climates, anchors may be needed and a certain depth for posts should be secured in order to avoid cracking in a cold snap. In warmer climates, vinyl is your best material as wood is susceptible to water damage.

Hire Professionals

Professionals understand the intricacies of zoning, permits and fencing requirements that come with the job. While many companies can help you design a great looking fence that will be the envy of the entire neighborhood, only local companies know how much that six-foot fence is going to cost you, by way of a free estimate.
