Fencing in Halesowen

While its value as an element of garden design is often ignored, fencing is an essential part of both the appearance and practicality of your garden. Garden fencing tends to differ between the front and rear of properties, with higher and more tough timber fencing frequently being installed in the rear garden, while the front of the property often features smaller and more attractive fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to feature a low height and large gaps between the wooden slats. Additionally, it is often painted to enhance its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is typically 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 kinds of fences are approximately 6 feet high and use wooden slats without gaps in between. Due to the additional height, these fences often have concrete footings laid between each panel to offer strength preventing the fence from blowing over or being broken in bad weather. Garden fencing panels are generally constructed from wood. The posts in between the panels are made from either wood, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be constructed from heavily recycled and sustainable composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
