If you live in a neighborhood or area with a Home Owner’s Association (HOA), you may be wondering what the process is for getting your new aluminum fence approved. Here, we’ll go over HOA fence approval and how to make sure your new fence meets the standards.
Utility Marks and Fence Installation Tips
While there are many fence installation tips that are incredibly useful to have on hand, what you do before you start digging is just as important as the before and after. Before you begin any project which requires extensive digging, it is important to call DigAlert at least two full days beforehand. When you call DigAlert at 811, they alert the owners of non-private utilities. Utility companies use a system of color coded utility marks. If any of these utility marks or adjacent or run through your work area, you are required to hand expose 2 feet on either side of any preexisting lines, so you are aware of their location before you use power equipment.
What are Aluminum Fence Scrolls?
This is a common question when the topic of fence decorations comes up. While aluminum fence looks great on its own, some homeowners like the elegant look of a decorated fence, either with finials or aluminum fence scrolls.
It’s easy to upgrade aluminum fencing with simple decorations. Fence scrolls are a very popular option for this purpose. Below, we’ll take a look at exactly what scrolls are in fence decoration, and how they’re used to boost curb appeal!
Why to Choose Aluminum Fencing Instead of Iron Fencing
If you’re ready to improve the look and safety of your home through fence installation, consider aluminum fencing. The right kind of fence can add style and security to your home, making it a true showcase. Traditionally, wrought iron was used to maintain a timeless and elegant look, but it is also incredibly expensive and high maintenance, requiring careful maintenance to keep it from rusting. Aluminum fencing can keep that ornamental look of iron fencing without that ornamental pricetag. Aluminum fencing is practical for a variety of reasons.
