Why Precast Concrete Fence is Great for HOAs

October 7, 2017

Property upkeep and maintenance is one of the biggest expenses for most home owner’s associations. But there is an easy way your HOA can save on maintenance and repair costs: a precast concrete fence, such as our RhinoRock Fence, is perfect for use around neighborhoods and subdivisions, and it can help your association save money over time. Keep reading to see how.

How Precast Concrete Fence Saves Your HOA Money

Many HOAs, especially those in urban and suburban areas, have fences or walls around the border of the neighborhood. These walls can be great for keeping residents safe and happy and for preserving property values inside, but they often come with a lot of costly upkeep and maintenance.


Wood fences, for example, need to be stained and treated on a regular basis, and they also need frequent repairs to replace damaged or rotten boards. Stone walls require less maintenance than wood fences. However, they are expensive and time-consuming to install, and they are heavy enough to cause problems on soft or uneven ground.


The solution? Precast concrete fencing. Unlike a wood fence, a concrete fence will last for decades without any special maintenance and will be able to stand up to even the most extreme wind, rain, and heat. But unlike a stone wall, a precast fence is fast and easy to install and is light enough to use over any ground. Providing the best balance between the strength and durability of stone and the flexibility of a wood fence. Over time it can save your HOA tens of thousands of dollars in maintenance and upkeep costs without any of the other drawbacks of stone walls.

Other Benefits of Precast Concrete Fence

Along with saving your HOA money, let’s take a look at some of the other benifits that come from these types of fencing:

Appearance

Another great feature is that it mimics the appearance of an old-world stone wall for a fraction of the price. A precast concrete fence is available in many colors and styles to suit the look of your neighborhood, and it won’t fade or degrade over time.

Strength

Another benefit of precast concrete fencing over wood fences is how much stronger it is. Even though the precast panels only weigh 230 lbs. apiece, they are extremely strong. They provide excellent security for residents, and they are able to stand up to heavy winds and snow/ice loads. They’re also dimensionally stable – in other words, it won’t expand or contract with changing temperature or humidity levels. In the end, these fences are one of the strongest and most versatile fencing products on the market.

Ease of Installation

A final benefit of precast concrete fencing is how easy it is to install. Because the precast concrete fence panels are so light, they can easily be brought to almost any installation site. They don’t require any heavy equipment to install and can easily be put in place without disturbing lawns or landscape features. This is a big benefit to HOAs replacing an existing fence as it avoids creating problems with damaged lawns or gardens in the neighborhood.

There is plenty of information on the internet about building and installing your own vinyl fence. However, that doesn’t always mean it’s a good idea to do it yourself. There are a few advantages that you get from working with a professional fence installer like Future Outdoors. Advantages of Professional Fence Installation Time Savings One of the biggest advantages of having your fence installed professionally is saving time versus installing it yourself. Fence installations can be tricky and time consuming, especially if you don’t have much experience. However, our experienced fence crew can install a new fence in just a day or two – and you won’t have to do any of the work yourself. Financial Savings Another major advantage of working with a professional fence installer is that you can actually save money. Depending on the type of fence you want to install you will need to buy materials, tools, and hardware such as screws, nails, or brackets. You will also need to factor in the costs of material delivery and the removal of any waste or old fence materials. In contrast, the cost of a professional fence install takes all of these factors into account. Plus, professionals have the tools and equipment they need already, and can buy materials in bulk at a discount. These savings are factored into your costs, so you often end up paying less than you would when you install on your own. Higher Quality Fence installations can be tricky. It’s important to make sure all the posts are set deep enough, totally secure, and standing straight and level. The panels need to be secure, level, and properly lined up. Corner angles must be measured correctly, and gates need be be secure and strong. If you don’t have the necessary skills or experience, it’s likely you could make a mistake that affects the quality of your finished fence. Professional fence installers, on the other hand, do have the necessary skills. They can install your fence quickly and without mistakes, and even guarantee the quality of your new fence with a warranty. In other words, you don’t just get a higher quality fence – you also get peace of mind. Less Stress Along with ensuring a higher quality result, having your fence installed by Future Outdoors also ensures you don’t need to worry about it. Installing your fence yourself can be stressful, especially if you are trying to get it done quickly or do it in your free time. When you get your fence installed, you don’t need to worry about the process and simply get to enjoy the result. No Code Violations Finally, getting your fence installed ensures you won’t suffer from any legal problems. Codes and permits can be big obstacles to DIY fence installations, especially if your home is part of an HOA. You will likely need to provide plans to your local permit office and get the necessary permits for your area. When you work with Future Outdoors to have your fence installed, though, you don’t need to do any of this work. We take care of all the permits for you, and ensure your fence is built according to code.

One of the biggest considerations is what material you want your pergola made from. Many pergolas these days are made of wood, but that doesn’t mean wood is the best choice. A wood pergola has all the same problems that a wood deck or fence has. Namely, wood pergolas need regular upkeep and maintenance, and they are vulnerable to moisture, insects, and time.
