Fencing in Norwich

While its importance as an element of garden design is sometimes disregarded, fencing is an essential part of both the appearance and functionality of your garden. Garden fencing tends to differ between the front and back of properties, with taller and more secure wooden fencing typically being used in the rear garden, while the front of the property generally employs smaller sized and more attractive fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to have a low height and large gaps between the wooden slats. Also, it is often painted to enhance its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is commonly used for privacy and to protect the boundaries of a garden, as well as to keep household pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. Because of this, these sorts of fences are roughly 6 feet high and use wooden slats without gaps in between. Due to the additional height, these fences commonly have concrete footings laid between each section to offer stability and stopping 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 wood, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be manufactured from heavily recycled and eco friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
