Who has time to kill on fence maintenance? Probably not you, right? You’re busy with other stuff in life and don’t want to be worrying about mundane tasks like fence maintenance. 

However, a beautiful fence does a lot for your landscaping. Is there a way to have your cake and eat it too? Yep! With professional fence installation from Palisade Fence Co. 

Let’s look at the best fence materials for long-lasting fencing here!

Iron Fencing

Iron fences last a long time. After all, iron is strong and will not warp or rot. Rust can be a problem, but nothing that a little bit of sanding and repainting can’t handle. Thankfully, this job is only needed infrequently to keep your fence in tip-top shape. 

Furthermore, as iron oxidizes, it develops a gorgeous patina over time. This means your fence only gets more beautiful with age. What could be better than effortless home improvement?

Vinyl Fencing

Vinyl fence materials are extremely versatile both in style and function. If you’re looking to avoid fence maintenance as much as possible, vinyl fencing is the way to go.

You can wash it every once in a while with mild detergent and a garden hose, and that’s it. The material is naturally resistant to rotting, warping, and insect infestations and holds up well for years. 

On top of all this, there is a huge variety of vinyl fence looks you can choose from. Some of them are “look-alike” options that imitate the look of wood or other fence materials. Others have the distinct look of vinyl, but come in a wide variety of colors to match any landscaping theme. 

When looking for your next home improvement project, a new vinyl fence is an excellent choice. Vinyl fence installation can be tricky, however. Thus, we recommend that you let the pros at Palisade Fence Co. handle the task!

Wood Fencing

Wood as a fence material isn’t what most people think of as low-maintenance or long-lasting fencing. Wood is prone to rotting, warping, and attracting destructive insects.

However, when wooden fence installation with the right fence materials is done correctly, this type of fence is both beautiful and long-lasting. In fact, it can be one of the best home improvement investments you make in your home. 

Certain woods, like redwood and cedar, are more resistant to pest invasions. Plus, redwood is actually resistant to warping and shrinkage. Though cedar can rot, this problem is easily avoided by installing the fence on a concrete base, so the wood doesn’t contact the soil.

Both kinds of wood are gorgeous. Cedar develops a silvery gray finish over time that is even more regal than at installation.
