From sprawling properties to small city lawns, there are a variety of reasons residents in Portland, Oregon need fences on a landscape. From privacy to safety, or simply the need to separate one space from another, a fence can make a big difference to your property. However, fences don’t have to be (and often shouldn’t) purely functional. A fence near your home should be something that enhances your property while it’s serving a purpose. With the right materials, your fence can serve as a focal point and a feature that increases your property value.
