Prepare your Fence for the Winter
Before winter arrives it is a good idea to get your garden in order to prepare it for the bad weather that arrives throughout the winter months. A fence is something that can often be a problem and if your fence has become old and tatty, then it may now be a good time to get a professional like this fencing Loughborough based company, Direct Fencing, to come and replace your old fence for you.
Before you do this though, you may be able to make repairs to your old fence – if it is just a small area that is damaged, then you can simply replace a post or reinforce the fence if it is leaning to your side. You do not necessarily need to replace the whole thing if you don’t want to.
If you want to brighten up your fence in the summer and also increase the security that it provides you, then rambling roses are ideal for planting around the fence. Not only do they look beautiful, but they are also hardy and easy to care for. In addition to this, their thorny stems will help to prevent intruders accessing your property.
If your fence is in good condition and you want to keep it that way, now is also an ideal time to prepare it for the winter by treating it to make it weatherproof and to protect it from rotting in the rain. There are lots of treatments out there for weatherproofing your fence.
