New Webisode and Music Video Show How Bufftech® Vinyl Fence Can Provide the Perfect Finishing Touch for Home Outdoor Living Spaces

CertainTeed® Living Spaces® Facebook® Home Makeover Contest Video Series Premieres Third Webisode, Beautifully Frames 2013 Winner’s Elaborate Garden

(Valley Forge, Pa.) – The Bielfelt family of Mentor, Ohio is now starring in their third webisode of the 2013 CertainTeed® Living Spaces® Facebook® Home Makeover Video Contest series. In this newest webisode, the contest-winning family sees their vision realized with a picturesque, low-maintenance CertainTeed® Danbury Concave traditional white vinyl fence to frame their historic home’s beautiful lawn and gardens. An original, fence-themed music video, which was recently named a 2014 Telly Award winner, is also now available.

CertainTeed 5-Star Fence Contractor Austintown Fence Company of Austintown, Ohio consulted with the contest winner, Paula Bielfelt, regarding the best choice of fence to accent the century-old home. After going over the extensive Bufftech® catalog of options, Owner Ernie Yocum helped Paula select the Danbury fence to provide the most complementary curb appeal. A “good neighbor” fence, it features an aesthetically pleasing, durable through picket style with no visible fasteners and the same look on both sides.

In only two days, a crew of four installed the fence down the home’s perimeter. The step-by-step process, including the installation of a heavy duty, internal aluminum frame keyed gate, is explained and illustrated in a fun, easy-to-follow storyline.

Austintown Fence Company has a strong reputation for precise installations of a wide array of low maintenance, high performance fence and railing systems in the Mahoning County, Ohio area for 46 years. The contractor is also featured in the complementary music video, which features an original country song and the imagination of a homeowner who explore the many options available in the Bufftech product family.

“I noticed how perfectly straight Austintown Fence contractors did the line and the height,” remarked Paula. “The painstaking detail they take in their work really shows...it’s just perfect.”

Grand prize winner of the $75,000 exterior makeover contest, the Bielfelts are the subject of an award-winning video series documenting the renovation of their 100-year-old home. The series follows the family, along with CertainTeed 5-Star Green, 5-Star Fence and Master Shingle Applicator contractors, from the planning stages of the renovation through its completion and big ‘reveal’ celebration. In the first two webisodes, the homeowner selected multiple products, including Cedar Impressions® and Monogram® siding, Restoration Millwork® trim, EverNew® decking and railing and Landmark™ Pro roofing.

In addition, the Bufftech music video, based on an original country music song, was recently honored with two 2014 Telly Awards, which recognize the best film and video work of advertising agencies, production companies, television stations and corporate video departments from around the world. The video earned a Bronze Award for Internet/Online Commercial — Household Products/Packaged Goods and a Bronze Award for Internet/Online Programs, Segments or Promotional Pieces — Infomercial.
