Today, we’ll talk about one of our specialties that not every fencing contractor offers: concrete.
Why Concrete
Many people are unaware that concrete fences are one of the most cost-effective fencing options over the lifetime of a fence. Concrete fences are made from steel reinforced concrete that is textured to resemble wood (three rail) or stone (full wall). Unlike wood, concrete fences don’t warp, splinter, or rot, which means they require very little maintenance while also looking at home in backyards, subdivisions, and golf courses.
After installation, fences are coated with sealants that protect them from moisture. Additionally, concrete is resistant to chipping, cracking, and breaking. To clean concrete fences of dirt and debris, simply spray them with a garden hose. For tougher stains, you may follow these simple care instructions.
At Split Rail Fence, we install three-rail concrete fences, which are excellent for high wind areas, as well as full-wall concrete fences from the industry leader StoneTree Concrete Fence Systems. StroneTree offers a variety of fence heights between three and eight feet, with fence heights outside this range available as custom offerings.
Beyond these benefits, our concrete fences are eco-friendly since they are not made from artificial materials and since they do not require deforestation. Did we mention that full-wall concrete fences act as excellent sound barriers? If you’re located near a noisy freeway or intersection, or if you’d love to create a little sanctuary in your backyard that’s insulated from your more exuberant neighbors, a concrete fence is likely your best bet.
