Fencing in Brentford

While its significance as an element of garden design is sometimes disregarded, fencing is a vital part of both the appearance and useability of your garden. Garden fencing will differ between the front and rear of properties, with higher and more sturdy wooden fencing commonly being installed in the rear garden, while the front of the property generally features more compact and more ornamental fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to have a low height and large spaces between the wooden slats. Additionally, it is often painted to improve 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. Because of this, these sorts of fences are roughly 6 feet high and use wooden slats without spaces in between. Because of the additional height, these fences often have concrete footings laid in between each section to provide stability and stopping the fence from blowing over or being broken in high winds. Garden fencing panels are generally constructed from wood. The posts in between the panels are produced from either wood, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be made of heavily recycled and eco friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
