Fencing in Saundersfoot

While its value as an element of garden design is sometimes overlooked, fencing is an integral part of both the appearance and functionality of your garden. Garden fencing will differ between the front and rear of properties, with taller and more strong wood fencing frequently being installed in the rear garden, while the front of the property often features smaller sized and more ornamental 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 coloured to enhance its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is typically used for privacy and to protect the borders of a garden, as well as to keep domestic pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. For this reason, these varieties of fences are around 6 feet high and use wooden slats without gaps in between. Because of the additional height, these fences typically have concrete footings laid between each panel to offer stability and stop 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 timber, stone, or concrete. More recently, fence panels have started to be manufactured from heavily recycled and sustainable composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
