Fencing in Keston

While its significance as an aspect of garden design is often neglected, fencing is an integral 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 secure timber fencing commonly being used in the rear garden, while the front of the property often features smaller sized and more attractive fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to feature a low height and large spaces between the wooden slats. Also, it is often painted to enhance its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is often used for privacy and to maintain the borders of a garden, as well as to keep pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. Due to this, these sorts of fences are about 6 feet high and use wooden slats with no spaces in between. Because of the added height, these fences typically have concrete footings laid in between each panel to offer security and stopping the fence from blowing over or being damaged in poor weather. Garden fencing sections are generally made of wood. The posts in between the panels are produced 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.
