Fencing in Rhayader

Although its significance as an element of garden design is sometimes ignored, fencing is a key part of both the aesthetics and practicality of your garden. Garden fencing will likely differ between the front and rear of properties, with higher and more strong wood fencing generally being installed in the rear garden, while the front of the home often utilises smaller sized and more ornamental fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to feature a low height and large gaps between the wooden slats. Also, it is often painted to improve its decorative effect. Fencing in the back garden is generally used for privacy and to maintain the boundaries of a garden, as well as to keep pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. Because of this, these varieties of fences are around 6 feet high and use wooden slats without gaps in between. Due to the added height, these fences generally have concrete footings laid in between each section to provide security and prevent the fence from blowing over or being broken in bad weather. Garden fencing sections are generally constructed from wood. The posts in between the sections are made from either wood, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be constructed from heavily recycled and eco friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
