Fencing in Crowthorne

While its value as an element of garden design is often overlooked, fencing is an essential part of both the appearance and practicality of your garden. Garden fencing is likely to differ between the front and back of properties, with taller and more tough wooden fencing commonly being placed in the rear garden, while the front of the home generally utilises smaller sized and more ornamental fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to have a low height and large spaces between the wooden slats. Also, it is often coloured to improve its decorative 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 without gaps in between. Because of the additional height, these fences typically have concrete footings laid in between each section to provide stability preventing the fence from blowing over or being destroyed in poor weather. Garden fencing panels are generally made of wood. The posts in between the sections are produced from either timber, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be constructed from heavily recycled and eco friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
