Fencing in Bridgend

Although its value as an aspect of garden design is often ignored, fencing is an essential part of both the appearance and functionality of your garden. Garden fencing will differ between the front and rear of properties, with higher and more tough timber fencing commonly being placed in the rear garden, while the front of the home usually utilises 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. Also, it is often painted to enhance its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is commonly used for privacy and to maintain the borders of a garden, as well as to keep domestic pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. Because of this, these sorts of fences are approximately 6 feet high and use wooden slats with no spaces in between. Because of the additional height, these fences typically have concrete footings laid between each section to provide strength and stop the fence from blowing over or being damaged in bad weather. Garden fencing sections are generally made of wood. The posts in between the sections are manufactured from either timber, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be constructed from heavily recycled and sustainable composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
