Fencing in Spalding

While its significance as an element of garden design is sometimes disregarded, fencing is an integral part of both the aesthetics and useability of your garden. Garden fencing tends to differ between the front and rear of properties, with higher and more sturdy timber fencing commonly being placed in the rear garden, while the front of the property generally utilises smaller and more ornamental fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to have a low height and large spaces between the wooden slats. Also, it is often painted to improve its decorative effect. Fencing in the back garden is commonly used for privacy and to maintain the borders of a garden, as well as to keep household pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. For this reason, these varieties of fences are about 6 feet high and use wooden slats with no gaps in between. Because of the additional height, these fences commonly have concrete footings laid between each section to offer stability and prevent the fence from blowing over or being destroyed in bad weather. Garden fencing panels are generally constructed from wood. The posts in between the sections are produced from either timber, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be constructed from heavily recycled and eco friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
