Privacy, upkeep, looks, cost and lifespan, compared side by side for North Alabama yards.
Start Here
Most people want one of three things: privacy, keeping pets or kids in, or a better-looking yard. The right material depends on which of those matters most to you, plus your budget and your HOA.
Option 1
Wood is the most popular fence in North Alabama. It gives full privacy, comes in many styles and is usually the most affordable privacy option.
Option 2
Aluminum looks like wrought iron without the rust. It's open, so it won't give you privacy, but it defines the yard, contains most pets and keeps a view.
Option 3
Trex composite gives you a privacy fence that never needs staining or sealing. It costs more up front but avoids the upkeep of wood.
Quick Take
Want privacy on a budget? Wood. Want privacy without maintenance? Trex. Want a clean, open look your HOA will love? Aluminum. Plenty of homeowners mix them, like aluminum facing the street and wood privacy along the back.

"Like to say thank you to the team at Dawfin Fence! I've dealt with fence companies in the past but I have never dealt with one like this... We moved in on a Thursday and by Saturday we had our fence. David stayed in full contact throughout the entire experience making sure everything went perfectly."
"We had Dawfin do our fence and not only did they do a great job with the install they communicated the entire time and kept the job site clean at all times. Highly recommend."
"I had my fence stained and it came out beautifully. It was to HOA standards and the stainer was very meticulous with his work. He even fixed a part on my fence. Quality company!"
"Punctual, professional and the fence looks amazing!"
"They did an amazing job! They were quick to install and cleaned up afterward. I definitely will recommend them!"
