Fencing in Waterlooville

While its importance as an element of garden design is often ignored, fencing is a vital part of both the aesthetics and functionality of your garden. Garden fencing will differ between the front and back of properties, with higher and more solid wood fencing commonly being used in the rear garden, while the front of the property often makes use of smaller sized and more attractive fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to feature a low height and large spaces between the wooden slats. It is also often painted to enhance its ornamental effect. Fencing in the back garden is typically used for privacy and to maintain the boundaries of a garden, as well as to keep household pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. Due to this, these styles of fences are about 6 feet high and use wooden slats with no gaps in between. Due to the added height, these fences commonly have concrete footings laid between each section to provide security preventing the fence from blowing over or being ruined in bad weather. Garden fencing sections are generally made of wood. The posts in between the panels are produced from either wood, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be made from heavily recycled and environmentally friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
