Wood privacy fences look good for all of 6 months. After that they look like absolute shite. 5 years in and they look ghetto as frick usually because no on maintains them.

truth...gotta periodically restain them in order for a fence to stay looking good...

my hoa requires it, but it would be hard for me to keep up with if they didn't hound me about it...

A lot of truth. Most of these can be overcome if you get a good pattern/design and use some landscaping properly.

However, if you are a DIY'er and looking to save lots of money then the chances of doing it right go down.

Yeah well I need a fence. It'll be expensive as hell to hire. My yard is pretty flat. It would just be a matter of marking off.

So I need to avoid home Depot for the wood?
