Fencing in Leyland

While its value as an aspect of garden design is sometimes ignored, fencing is an integral part of both the appearance and usefulness of your garden. Garden fencing tends to differ between the front and back of properties, with higher and more substantial wooden fencing frequently being used in the rear garden, while the front of the house usually utilises smaller sized and more ornamental fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to feature a low height and large spaces between the wooden slats. It is also often painted to improve its decorative effect. Fencing in the back garden is typically used for privacy and to protect the boundaries 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 around 6 feet high and use wooden slats with no spaces in between. Because of the increased height, these fences often have concrete footings laid in between each panel to provide security preventing the fence from blowing over or being damaged in high winds. Garden fencing sections are generally constructed from wood. The posts in between the panels are manufactured from either timber, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be made of heavily recycled and eco friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
