Fencing your garden can serve many different purposes, from security, to decoration, to privacy, and there are plenty of material choices and style options to choose from, depending on budget and your personal taste. Let us take a look at the three most popular options for fencing around a garden area, and the reasons why they are the most popular choices.
Wood fencing
Wood fencing a property is a popular fencing choice due to how inexpensive it is to have erected for gardens. Wood can also be tailored to a great deal of styles, to ornate carved enclosures, from a straightforward picket fence. This makes it a very popular choice of fencing material. The down side to using a wood fence is that it will require regular maintenance as a way to keep it looking good and preserved. Treated or wood fencing will need to be stained with oil. Or, for painted wood, will need to be retouched from time to time. Wood is rotting and prone to splitting in harsher conditions or wetter. However, regular maintenance will keep your wooden fence looking great for years.
Metal fencing
Metal is strong and durable. If security is high on your list of priorities, it is a particularly good option. It’ll also last for years if care is taken to keep it maintained. If it is not maintained, the downside is it’s prone to rust and peeling paintwork. Make sure not to forget components for example screws and hinges, of the fence.
PVC fencing
PVC fencing is a more modern popular option. It has become popular due to having a low maintenance requirement. From having PVC fencing installed what puts most people off is the cost of having it installed. PVC fencing is much more expensive than other fencing options. However, although pricey, PVC fencing can last for several years with no real attention.
The trick to making sure that lasts for years is down to good installation and good maintenance procedures. It needs to be installed correctly, which includes regular checks for any problems or damage and deep trenches for fencing to last. If you don’t have the necessary skills to erect one yourself, fence contractors might be contacted to erect the fence for you. Make sure the fence installation is carried out by a qualified and experienced company with a good track record. Search in your local directly online to source a qualified experienced chain link fence installation company, and always check for examples and references of their work. Most companies will be happy to provide a quote that is free, helping you to work out which company offers the best value for money.
