Outdoor Privacy Screens Tailored to Your Property

At Action Home Services, we understand that every backyard is unique, which is why a privacy screen should never be a one-size-fits-all addition. We first listen to your needs, then design and install cedar privacy screens tailored to your yard’s layout, the entire outdoor space, and the level of privacy you want to achieve. We aim to create a screen that feels natural in the yard while improving functionality and overall visual appeal.

The size of your privacy screen will depend on the specific area you want to protect and the space around it. Some homeowners need screens for a patio or dining area, while others want to create more privacy around a lounge space, garden, or hot tub.

During the planning stage, we will carefully measure the intended location and take the surrounding conditions into account. For instance, we must ensure your privacy screens complement the nearby structures, landscaping features, access points, and your overall home’s architectural style. Remember, we use 3D modeling to preview.

Your Privacy Screens, Your Design

Our team will help determine the height and width of your cedar. The screen needs to be tall enough to block unwanted views effectively, while the width should be sufficient to cover the necessary area without making the space feel too closed in. Once these details are confirmed, we build a custom cedar privacy screen that aligns with your preferences and needs.

To help protect the finished cedar privacy screens, we will apply a high-quality exterior wood finish that resists moisture, UV exposure, and everyday outdoor wear. The right finish not only helps preserve the screen over time but also enhances the natural beauty of the cedar, so the privacy wall looks warm, polished, and long-lasting.

Ready-Made (Screen Kits) vs. Custom Cedar Privacy Screens

Online retailers and many home improvement stores provide pre-made privacy screens in various materials and styles. Ready-made cedar screens can be a practical option for homeowners who want a faster and simpler way of adding more privacy to their outdoor spaces. Note that these privacy screens come in pieces that can easily be assembled on-site.

Ready-made cedar privacy screens are usually available in standard sizes and designs. They work well if the installation process is straightforward and you need minimal privacy. Given that the screens are pre-made, they may not fit your space perfectly or match the style of the existing backyard like a more tailored option would.

Custom cedar privacy screens, on the other hand, offer much more design flexibility. They are designed around the exact dimensions of your home, the area you want to protect, and the overall look you want to achieve. This allows for better placement, more effective privacy, and a finished look that feels more natural and more polished.

At Action Home Services, we design custom screens that align with specific requirements related to the right height, width, spacing, and finish to suit both the space and the surrounding outdoor design. Our team will work with you to provide stylish solutions that add privacy to your desired area and last for many years.

Here’s a more simplified comparison between custom and ready-made cedar screens.

Benefits Of Cedar Privacy Screens

Cedar privacy screens can help to increase your home’s privacy, functionality, and value. The natural properties of cedar wood make it an excellent choice for creating durable, weather-resistant barriers that withstand the elements. The tight grain pattern also resists splitting and cracking. Cedar is naturally pest-resistant, meaning it won’t be damaged by insects or other pests such as termites or carpenter ants. Its ability to withstand extreme temperatures and weather conditions without warping or rotting is also a testament to its durability and longevity.

Their attractive colour and texture add to the aesthetic appeal of your outdoor space. Installing such a feature is an easy way to boost your home’s curb appeal and create a tranquil atmosphere for you and your family. If you’re looking for an easy way to add both protection and beauty to your home, cedar privacy screens are definitely worth considering!

What makes cedar a good material for privacy screens?

Cedar is a popular choice for privacy screens because it combines natural beauty with strong outdoor performance. It has warm tones, attractive grain, and a more refined look than many other wood options. It is also naturally more resistant to moisture damage, insect infestation, and everyday outdoor wear, which makes it well-suited for custom privacy screens.

How long can a cedar privacy screen last?

A cedar privacy screen can last for many years when it is installed properly and maintained over time. Its lifespan depends on the quality of the wood, the construction method, the exposure to weather elements, and how well it is cared for. Routine maintenance and protective finishing can help keep the screen visually appealing and functional much longer.

Do cedar privacy screens need to be stained or sealed?

Occasional staining or sealing for cedar privacy screens can protect the wood from the damage associated with moisture, sun exposure, and general outdoor wear. A quality exterior finish can also enhance the natural appearance of the cedar screens. While some homeowners prefer a more natural weathered look, protective finishing is usually recommended for longer-lasting results.

Where can I install cedar privacy screens?

Cedar privacy screens can be installed in many outdoor areas, depending on where privacy or separation is needed most. Common locations include patios, dining areas, lounge spaces, gardens, hot tub areas, poolside settings, and side yards. The best placement depends on the property layout, surrounding sightlines, and how you intend to use the protected area.

What’s the cost of cedar privacy screens in Toronto?

The exact cost of installing cedar screens in a residential or commercial property depends on the total area you want to protect, the choice of materials, and more. Therefore, we recommend that you request a free quote from a reputable contractor, like AHS.

How much maintenance does a cedar privacy screen need?

Cedar privacy screens need moderate maintenance to stay in good condition over time. This may include occasional cleaning, periodic inspections, and reapplying stain or sealant when needed. The exact level of maintenance depends on the exposure conditions and the finish used, but regular inspections and maintenance can help extend the lifespan of your cedar privacy screens.
