Fencing in Aberdare

Although its importance as an element of garden design is often neglected, fencing is a vital part of both the appearance and functionality of your garden. Garden fencing will likely differ between the front and back of properties, with higher and more secure wood fencing generally being placed in the rear garden, while the front of the house often employs more compact and more decorative fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to feature a low height and large gaps between the wooden slats. It is also often painted to enhance its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is typically used for privacy and to preserve the boundaries of a garden, as well as to keep pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. For this reason, these varieties of fences are approximately 6 feet high and use wooden slats with no gaps in between. Due to the increased height, these fences commonly have concrete footings laid in between each section to provide security preventing the fence from blowing over or being broken in high winds. Garden fencing sections are generally made of wood. The posts in between the panels are produced from either wood, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be constructed from heavily recycled and eco friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
