Fencing in Blackpool

Although its importance as an aspect of garden design is sometimes ignored, fencing is a key part of both the appearance and usefulness of your garden. Garden fencing tends to differ between the front and rear of properties, with higher and more tough wooden fencing usually being used in the rear garden, while the front of the property usually utilises smaller and more decorative fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to feature a low height and large spaces between the wooden slats. It is also often painted to enhance its decorative effect. Fencing in the back garden is commonly used for privacy and to preserve the borders of a garden, as well as to keep pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. For this reason, these kinds of fences are roughly 6 feet high and use wooden slats without gaps in between. Due to the increased height, these fences typically have concrete footings laid between each section to provide security preventing the fence from blowing over or being destroyed in poor weather. Garden fencing sections are generally made of wood. The posts in between the sections 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.
