The Benefits of Timber Fencing
Wood is one of the world's oldest building materials and the fact that it continues to be used for thousands of applications all over the world to this very day is a testament to its plethora of unmatched qualities, benefits and advantages. It is especially useful as a material from which to create strong, attractive fences and Greengates, your local builders merchant, can supply you with everything you need to achieve exceptional results whether you are a fencing professional or an enthusiastic DIYer.
Timber fence panels, whether of the close board or waney lap variety, are extremely fast to install and the process is much easier than you might imagine. Compared to steel, composite or concrete alternatives, timber fencing is also a cost effective option. If any repairs are needed, it's a quick matter to simply replace the panel, with no need to take down the entire fence. Together, these qualities mean that you will have more time to simply enjoy your garden and more money to spend on things to improve it. It's a classic win-win situation!
A garden is (or at least should be!) an organic space, displaying the beauty of nature to its best. As a natural, organic material, timber ties in beautifully with this requirement and so is one of the most attractive options when it comes to creating an aesthetically-pleasing garden fence that coordinates perfectly with the environment.
As compared to other materials, timber is a sustainable choice as it is a renewable resource. At the end of its useful lifespan, timber can be used as fuel for barbecues, chimineas and fire pits, all of which you can buy for your garden with the money you have saved buying the fencing in the first place!
Fencing is an absolutely vital garden feature. It acts as a deterrent to keep intruders out while simultaneously providing a barrier that keeps kids, vulnerable adults and pets safely inside without you having to worry. It also acts as a screen that allows you, your family and your friends to enjoy being outdoors in complete privacy.
