Fencing in Tillicoultry

Although its importance as an aspect of garden design is sometimes neglected, fencing is an essential part of both the aesthetics and functionality of your garden. Garden fencing tends to differ between the front and back of properties, with higher and more substantial wood fencing generally being installed in the rear garden, while the front of the property generally features smaller and more ornamental fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to have a low height and large gaps between the wooden slats. Additionally, it is often stained to improve its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is frequently 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. For this reason, these varieties of fences are approximately 6 feet high and use wooden slats without spaces in between. Due to the additional height, these fences typically have concrete footings laid between each panel to offer strength and stopping the fence from blowing over or being damaged in bad weather. Garden fencing panels are generally made of 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.
