WHICH DECK MATERIAL SHOULD YOU CHOOSE?​
The materials we use for these structures depend on the location and installation environment. A wall built in a coastal area will be different than one built in the mountains. An exposed place may require more resistant materials, while at other times, it will be beneficial to use materials that blend into the surroundings better.
We also use various construction techniques for retaining walls depending on their design and usage: single-sided inclined walls (like Type I), double-sided inclined walls (like Type II), braced walls (like Brace & Tie), and cantilevered walls.
Common materials for this type of work generally include:
- Block
- Brick
- Pre-cast concrete
- Poured-in place concrete
- Stone
Fences Installation
Fences installation comes with both advantages and disadvantages. While many types of fences can be installed, most homeowners choose to install wooden or metal fencing. It’s because they do not require much maintenance over the years but still offer all the promises of security for your home along with beautiful views. However, it’s essential to know the different materials used to install fences.
Wooden Fences
Different types of woods are used for fencing. The most common is redwood, cedar, pine, and spruce. These wood varieties are soft enough to be cut with standard tools like saws. Wooden fences provide a classic style to your home but need painting or staining every few years for upkeep. They also offer reasonable insulation from the sun's heat.
Metal Fences
Metal fences are typically made up of aluminum alloys with high strength-to-weight ratios compared to steel. This makes installing easy, especially if you have tall fences around patio areas or pool decks. Iron fences can rust very quickly if treated with poor quality materials, so beware when purchasing them for installation purposes.
CHAIN LINK FENCES​
One of the most common types of fences is chain links. This type of fencing is installed to keep animals and children in or out, depending on its use. It also provides privacy while still allowing light to enter your home. However, installing them can be very expensive, so research beforehand about installation costs.
Wrought Iron Fences
Wrought iron fences are often made up of 90 percent pure iron, with some being painted for enhanced aesthetics. Although they are visually appealing, they need regular repainting due to rusting. They are strong but at the same time inexpensive, which makes this ideal for any property ranging from commercial spaces to single-family homes. Another great benefit is that they are naturally fire-resistant, making them the perfect type of fence for locations near fire hazards.
Your Walls, Your Way
Retaining walls, fences, and gates provide visual appeal and enhance property value, as well as increase security and give your yard a finished look. A retaining wall can also protect your property from shifting soils, landslides, and erosion.

Gate Installation
Gates installation is one of the most common types of home improvements today. It is a perfect solution for various purposes – from making a walkway in a yard to creating an additional entrance to your home. There are many different options for choosing the type of gate that best suits your needs, and there is no limit to their aesthetics.
The materials used range from wood and iron to vinyl, aluminum, or PVC, and any combination of style and design. In addition, each material has its advantages regarding cost, maintenance requirements, etc. At OrangeBlue, we make sure to offer the best price for quality installation service, fast turnaround time, and quick delivery of materials, so you are guaranteed to get what you need in no time.
Wood
A wood gate is a perfect choice for homeowners looking to enhance their home's aesthetics while keeping the costs down. It's one of the most popular options in residential applications because it can be stained to match certain architectural styles.
Iron
Iron gates require more effort in terms of installation and regular upkeep - however, they offer a timeless look that enhances the appearance and beauty of any property.
Aluminum
Aluminum gates are an excellent choice if you're looking for a modern, sleek look. They require less maintenance than iron and can last a lifetime if properly maintained. The biggest advantage of using aluminum is that it doesn't rust, so no painting or replacement will be necessary over time.
PVC
PVC or Composite gates are a popular choice for homeowners looking for the utmost convenience and low-maintenance requirements. They will never warp, rot or fade even after years of usage. In addition, they do not need any additional preparation before being painted - choose the color you like and have the gate installed!
Vinyl
Vinyl gates offer a unique look that is both stylish and affordable. This means you'll be able to enjoy all of the benefits without breaking your budget or spending more time on upkeep than you'd like. Unlike metal gates, vinyl ones do not need any preparation before being painted - choose the color that suits your home best!
