Close board Fencing in Bristol
Traditional close board fencing is a strong wooden screen fence constructed on site suitable for both level and sloping ground. It consists of gravel boards running along the bottom with a number of arris rails clad with featheredge boards, all of which is fitted between mortised posts.
The quantity of arris rails used depends on the height of the fence and generally speaking 2 rails are used for fences up to 1.5m high and 3 rails used for taller fences.
Posts are normally set at 3m intervals but in some instances, a longer section may be used in order to avoid an obstruction such as tree roots, pipes, etc.
We fit wooden posts and gravel boards as standard and concrete posts and gravel boards are available as an option.
