Fencing in Tamworth

Although its value as an element of garden design is sometimes overlooked, fencing is an essential part of both the aesthetics and practicality of your garden. Garden fencing tends to differ between the front and back of properties, with taller and more tough timber fencing typically being installed in the rear garden, while the front of the property typically utilises more compact 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 stained to improve its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is commonly used for privacy and to preserve the borders 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 around 6 feet high and use wooden slats without spaces in between. Because of the additional height, these fences commonly have concrete footings laid between each section to provide strength 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 panels are manufactured from either timber, stone, or concrete. More recently, fence panels have started to be constructed from heavily recycled and eco friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
