Composite Fencing: A Sustainable and Cost-Effective Solution
In recent years, the landscape of garden fencing has witnessed a notable shift. The escalating cost of timber coupled with its inherent maintenance demands has paved the way for the ascendancy of composite fencing. This article elucidates why composite fencing is increasingly becoming the preferred choice for discerning homeowners.
The Economic Realities of Timber Fencing
The global pandemic triggered a sharp rise in timber prices. Traditional timber fences necessitate annual treatment with wood preservatives to combat rot and decay. Over time, these maintenance costs accumulate, placing a financial burden on homeowners. Moreover, timber fence posts are susceptible to rot, requiring eventual replacement, thereby adding to the overall expenditure. In contrast, composite fences, despite a slightly higher initial investment, offer long-term cost savings due to their minimal maintenance requirements.
Strength and Longevity
At Blaenavon Garden Services, we specialize in the installation of "Eco Fencing," a premium composite fencing system. The system utilizes 1800mm x 300mm boards, each representing one foot in height, offering flexibility in achieving desired fence heights up to a maximum of 1800mm (6 feet).
The Eco Fence posts, available in 1.8m and 2.4m lengths, boast a unique internal steel box channel filled with concrete. This innovative design significantly enhances their structural integrity compared to conventional timber posts.
Sustainability and Minimal Upkeep
Our composite fences are manufactured from 75% recycled plastic, aligning with the growing emphasis on sustainable practices. The only maintenance required is periodic cleaning with soap and water or a power washer. Their resistance to rot further minimizes long-term upkeep.
Conclusion
While timber has long been the conventional fencing material, composite fencing presents a compelling alternative. Its exceptional durability, negligible maintenance demands, and environmentally conscious composition position it as the optimal choice for contemporary gardens.
