Fence Trends: Adding Appeal To Your Landscape With Aluminum Fencing
If you are looking for something that will add definition and curb appeal to your home landscape, install a good fence.
Popular right now for the fall season is maintenance free aluminum fencing that resembles wrought iron with self-latching hardware for safety purposes.
If aluminum fencing is not your style, maintenance free vinyl is always top choice, especially white vinyl fencing.
Both types of fences add new textures and complement earth tones to give your landscape a more natural look.
Remember fences and gates are no longer merely functional. Use your fences and gates to define your property and provide structure for landscape elements such as garden plants.

The Process And Benefits of A Wood Lattice Fence
Are you looking to install a wood lattice fence in your backyard? If yes, this article will provide you information on the process of building a wood lattice fence, as well as the benefits.
A wood lattice fence is a great fencing to install in your backyard or in your front yard to boosts your curb appeal. The process of installing this fencing is moderately difficult.
The cut list of the fencing is normally 36 by 51 inch panels. This should be repeated for each panel. Roughly 43 inches of post should be exposed above ground. The line must be positioned and the postholes need digging. A professional will wrap the posts to keep water from seeping between the wood pieces.
Sleeves are cut and assembled by a professional fencing company. Then weep holes are drilled and the lattice is cut. Once this is done, the lattice is laid on the frame and post spacing is set.
A Custom Western Red Cedar Lattice Fence is perfect for home privacy, while still allowing you as a homeowner to have contact with your neighbor. You can even allow plants and vines to grow on your lattice fence to add more privacy while giving an inviting impression.
This is the perfect fence for gardens and front porches. Use it for your vegetable gardens and flowerbeds. The fence can keep your vegetables and flowers protected from intruders and pests.
With a lattice fence you have the option of customization while having the appeal of having a handmade structure. Since a lattice fence is made of strips of wood, it can be placed in crisscrossed and diagonal patterns. You can have small diamond patterns or squared shaped holes.
If you are ready to have a lattice fence installed in your home, hire Hercules fence.

As seen on HGTV’s “Curb Appeal”
When HGTV’s hit show, “Curb Appeal,” needed some help turning Jessica and Bryant Wilson’s plain, suburban home into an attractive, seaside-themed bungalow, it turned to Hercules Fence for a vital component.
One of the first things that designer Christopher Ralston identified to “bring the beach to the ‘burbs” at the Wilsons’ house was a white picket fence to “frame the yard and give it a classic look.” We were honored to be called upon to handle this part of the project and flattered when Jessica Wilson said the yard looked like a movie set with the fence around it.
When you watch the video, you’ll see that the fence we installed wasn’t your traditional wood picket fence but rather one made of PVC vinyl and already assembled in sections. This made it easy to install and even easier for the Wilsons to maintain. It had all the look of a classic picket fence without the hassles of having to paint or replace old wood.
What you didn’t see in the video was “Curb Appeal’s” production schedule. Installing the fence had to be precisely sequenced with all the other work going on and completed within a tight timeframe. We were up to the challenge and extend such service to meet all of our customers’ needs.
The Wilsons’ relatives helped design and build much of the porch, its furniture, and the landscaping around the house. We’re therefore doubly honored to be called in for what was very much a family project. We now like to consider the Wilsons members of our extended family. Contact us to lean how we can add curb appeal to your home.
