Private Outdoor Spaces in Vancouver, BC

A privacy fence can make a significant difference to how you experience your backyard, especially in Vancouver neighbourhoods where homes and outdoor spaces are often positioned close to one another. A well-planned privacy fence creates a greater sense of separation from surrounding properties while also defining your yard and contributing to the overall appearance of your home. At Cantico Forest Group, we design and install privacy fencing around the way you want to use your outdoor space, considering the desired level of privacy, fence style, property layout, and material requirements.

Privacy Fencing Options for Your Property

Solid Board Fencing: A solid board design provides a strong visual barrier and can create a more secluded environment for backyards, patios, and other outdoor living areas.

Shadow Box Fencing: Shadow box fencing offers a distinctive appearance while providing privacy from different viewing angles, making it a versatile option for residential properties.

Stockade Fencing: A traditional stockade design creates a defined boundary with closely positioned boards, providing a straightforward solution for homeowners seeking greater seclusion.

Start With How You Want to Use Your Yard

Privacy means something different for every homeowner. Some people want a quiet space for relaxing, while others need greater separation around a patio, pool, garden, or family area. Understanding how you intend to use the space helps determine the appropriate height, layout, and style.

We also consider the relationship between the fence and the existing home and landscape. A privacy fence should provide the desired enclosure without looking disconnected from the rest of the property.

Planning Around Your Property

Before installation, we assess the area where the fence will be constructed, taking measurements and identifying features that may influence the layout. Trees, structures, changes in ground level, access points, and existing landscaping can all affect the installation.

Property boundaries and applicable local requirements are also important considerations when planning a new fence. Addressing these details early helps establish a practical installation plan and reduces the likelihood of avoidable complications.
