Front Fence

Helen

Want to replace front fence, what type of fence? Can't decide! Any one have some ideas, have you completed such a project? I am stuck! would like something that looks good but won't cost heaps! My house is getting restumped shortly, so savings will mostly go there & have to start saving again. Knowing what kind of fence will be helpful in reaching that goal.

Hi Helen,

Where does one start?  It really all depends on what style of house you have, and most importantly, what style you like.  Do you want it to complement or hide the house?  Do you want to cut down noise?  Do you intend growing vines/plants on it.  There are just so many styles and materials that one could go nuts just trying to decide what type of fence you want.  Timber slats (horizontal, vertical and angular), brick (face and rendered), metal (colourbond, plate, laser cut etc).  Finishes are also endless.  Painted, natural, preserved rust and the list goes on and on.  Suggest posting a picture of your house frontage so we can get a better idea.
Good luck with choosing.
Cheers'n'beers
