Fencing in Carrbridge

Although its value as an aspect of garden design is sometimes neglected, fencing is an integral part of both the appearance and useability of your garden. Garden fencing is likely to differ between the front and back of properties, with higher and more tough wooden fencing typically being installed in the rear garden, while the front of the home often utilises smaller and more decorative fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to have a low height and large spaces between the wooden slats. It is also often stained to improve its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is often used for privacy and to maintain the boundaries of a garden, as well as to keep domestic pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. Due to this, these styles of fences are approximately 6 feet high and use wooden slats without spaces in between. Due to the increased height, these fences typically have concrete footings laid in between each panel to provide stability and prevent the fence from blowing over or being damaged in poor weather. Garden fencing sections are generally made of wood. The posts in between the sections are made from either timber, stone, or concrete. More recently, fence panels have started to be constructed from heavily recycled and sustainable composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
