ugly chain link fence
I read a previous post here about changing the look of a chain link fence with wood but that link is no longer accessable.
Here's my problem, any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated, I really need a solution. I have a totally fenced in backyard, problem is it is chain link and although it is in good shape I have a few issues which make it less an ideal. First I need privacy, My backyard is flanked by four other backyards, plus there is a cul-de-sac street one house over and our backyard can be seen by several other yards plus anyone taking a stroll down the street. It is a kreally nice neighborhood but I need a little privacy in my own space. Second our dog likes to bark at anybody taking a stroll down that street and this is more than annoying to us and I'm sure them, so I need to block them from her line of vision. Third the people directly behind us are growing a weed garden and the weeds are now 4 ft. tall and they don't seem to notice, so I don't want to notice either. Fourth, one neighbor has a very large great dane that does not like our dog and his barking and the ensuing racket between the dogs is nerve racking, therefore I need to block him as well. First idea was to rip out the chain link and replace with all privacy. Problem is I don't want to disturb the neighbor's flower beds and trees or worse kill them trying to dig up cement and posts. Also I don't really want to create a totally enclosed box for my yard. One neighbor in particular and I like to kibbits across the fence and I don't want to completely shut that neighborliness off. Sorry the post is so long but had to give you the whole scoop so you'd understand. Is there ANYTHING that can be done? Anybody?
