Fencing in Aviemore

While its significance as an element of garden design is often overlooked, fencing is a vital part of both the appearance and functionality of your garden. Garden fencing is likely to differ between the front and back of properties, with higher and more solid timber fencing generally being placed in the rear garden, while the front of the house usually employs smaller and more attractive fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to have a low height and large gaps between the wooden slats. It is also often stained to improve its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is commonly used for privacy and to preserve the boundaries of a garden, as well as to keep household pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. Because of this, these varieties of fences are approximately 6 feet high and use wooden slats without spaces in between. Because of the increased height, these fences commonly have concrete footings laid between each panel to provide security which will help prevent the fence from blowing over or being damaged in high winds. Garden fencing sections are generally constructed from wood. The posts in between the panels are manufactured from either wood, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be constructed from heavily recycled and environmentally friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
