Fences

 

Do you need a new fence? 

Well before you decide what sort of fence you want consider the following:

Well laid brick, concrete block or stone fences can last more than 100 years with almost no maintenance.

Modern metal fences like pool fences or metal yard fences or even colourbond steel fences last 30-70 years again with little or no maintenance.

Timber fences last around 10-25 years but require constant maintenance such as staining or painting.  They do look good but they can be hard work.

And there are many other fencing options such as:

Cast concrete rails that look like timber farm fences

Plastic fences that look like painted wood

and lots more.

Hooroo!
