In urban settings retaining walls are often needed to hold back soil which has been built up during construction or from the building of garden beds or levelling off the land. Treated Pine or sleepers are the preferred material for retaining walls. The size of the timber used and the spacing of the posts will vary depending on the height of the wall and the load it is expected to carry. The use of steel posts combined with treated pine whaling is common in larger retaining walls carrying large loads. Retaining walls can often be combined with the construction of the fence to become a single structure.
A wide range of custom gates can be built to match the style of your fence. Gates can be either single pedestrian gates or double gates for vehicle access.
Standard Paling Fence
This type of fence is constructed from timber palings. A single
layer of palings is used. These palings are butted up against each other and nailed onto
rails. The rails are attached to posts. All posts are cemented in place in the ground. Posts are trenched
from the side, not centre mortised, for a better fit and appearance.
Picket Fence
Picket fences are commonly a front boundary fence. They are also often used for block offs and returns at the side of a house just to provide a bit of variety or so they can be seen through. Modern materials like treated pine is now the predominant material used for picket fences. There are endless styles and varieties of picket fences that can be constructed and they are a great way to lift the appearance of almost any house.
