How can I fill this gap in my fence?

My fence on one side doesn't completely meet the garden wall in the one corner and it's a bit of an eyesore. The fence is asbestos so I can't nail anything to it and it's a bit pricy to replace at this point in time. The garden wall is brick. Is there any way that I can fill this gap in an aesthetically pleasing manner?

Re: How can I fill this gap in my fence?

Hello @SunnyZim87 

 

I propose using 90 x 22mm Decking H3 Treated Pine - 2.4m and joining them side by side with the offcuts of the same panel. These are treated pine panels and can be used outdoors. I then suggest anchoring the panels to the brick wall using Ramset 8 x 50mm Universal Anchor - 4 Pack. In order to blend in, the panels can be painted to the same colour as the brick wall.

 

Let me call on our experienced members @Nailbag, @AlanM52 and @Dave-1 for their recommendation.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Hi @SunnyZim87,

 

I am thinking about something that is lightweight, non-intrusive and requires a minimal amount of time to install - corrugated poly roofing sheet.

Cut off a section to fill the gap and secure to the post with building adhesive.

Don't forget safety and the protective clothing thing.

 

Cheers
