Why You Should Consider Fencing as an Option
Five reasons homeowners and businesses in the Lower Mainland install fencing — from resale value to insurance premiums to keeping the dog out of the tulips.
A fence isn't just a boundary marker. It's an investment that pays back in security, property value, and everyday quality of life. Here's what people rarely think about until they install one.
1. Defined property lines
The single most common source of neighbour disputes is uncertainty about where one lot ends and another begins. A surveyed fence line ends the conversation.
2. Security and insurance
For commercial and industrial sites, a proper perimeter fence often reduces insurance premiums and is a hard requirement for storing equipment or inventory outdoors.
3. Kids, pets, and pools
BC building code requires pool enclosures, but even a standard 5-foot chain link keeps toddlers and pets in — and coyotes and deer out.
4. Privacy and noise
Cedar and ornamental with privacy slats reduce sightlines and cut road noise by a surprising margin.
5. Resale value
Realtors consistently list fenced yards as a top-ten feature buyers ask for, particularly on family and pet-friendly properties.
