February Is for Lovers—Backyard Lovers!

Rekindle Your Passion For Outdoor Living

Ah, February—the month of love. While everyone is busy picking out roses and heart-shaped chocolates, let’s not forget about another love that deserves attention: your backyard! That’s right, your outdoor space has been patiently waiting for a little TLC, and now is the perfect time to show it some love.

Think about it: in just a few short months, the sun will be shining, the kids will be running barefoot through the grass, and the grill will be sizzling with the promise of backyard barbecues. But will your yard be ready for all that fun? Or will you be staring at a weathered fence and a worn-out deck and battling overgrown weeds while everyone else is lounging in their perfectly prepped outdoor paradise?

Now is the perfect time to show your backyard some love—and at STL Fenceworks, we’re here to help you do just that.

Start with the Lawn—It’s the Heart of the Yard

A great backyard starts with a healthy, vibrant lawn. Winter may have left it looking a little dull and patchy, but don’t worry—it just needs a little encouragement. Think of late February and early March as a wake-up call for your grass. A good pre-emergent treatment now keeps pesky weeds from taking over when things start growing again. And if your lawn has some bare spots (thanks to a rough winter or an energetic pup that is obsessed with running the same path, over and over), aerating and overseeding now will give the grass a head start before spring.

And let’s not forget about the landscaping. Those bushes that look like they’ve given up on life? A good pruning will do wonders. That mulch that’s faded to a sad gray? A fresh layer will instantly boost curb appeal and keep weed growth down. Your yard wants to look its best—it just needs a little help from you.

A Strong Fence = A Safe and Stylish Yard

If you’ve got kids or pets, your fence isn’t just a backdrop—it’s what keeps them safe. And after standing guard all year long against wind, rain, and the occasional soccer ball, it’s probably in need of some love. Now is the time to upgrade to something durable, beautiful, and built to last.

STL Fenceworks proudly installs top-of-the-line, American-made vinyl fence materials sourced directly from our trusted manufacturer, Homeland Vinyl. These fences are engineered for durability and low maintenance—no warping, no cracking, no fading—just year after year of effortless beauty.

Is classic elegance more your type? Our ornamental aluminum fencing from Jerith Manufacturing is the perfect choice. As the originators of the component aluminum fence system, Jerith fences offer timeless style, superior strength, and zero rusting—so you can enjoy beauty and security without the hassle of a high-maintenance relationship.

Whether you’re upgrading for privacy, safety, or curb appeal, STL Fenceworks has the perfect fence to complete your backyard transformation.

Your Deck Deserves a Love Letter, Too

Picture this: a warm spring evening, sparkling string lights overhead, and a beautiful, maintenance-free deck beneath your feet. If your current deck is showing its age, now is the time to replace it with something that will stand the test of time.

STL Fenceworks proudly installs Wolf Serenity™ Decking, a superior PVC deck product that combines durability with elegance. Unlike traditional wood decks that require constant sanding, staining, and sealing, our deck product is resistant to moisture, fading, and heavy foot traffic. That means you can spend more time enjoying your outdoor space and less time maintaining it.

A deck is more than just a structure—it’s where you fall in love with outdoor living. Whether you're dreaming of a cozy spot for quiet mornings or a sprawling entertainment area for weekend gatherings, we can bring your vision to life with a deck that’s as beautiful as it is low maintenance.

Thinking even bigger? Maybe it’s time to expand your deck, add built-in seating, or create a covered space so you can enjoy it rain or shine. Your backyard is an extension of your home—why not make it just as inviting?
