One of our long-term customers wanted a bit more privacy in her garden without replacing the fence. We suggested adding trellis panels. She chose pressure-treated wood and painted each panel a soft green. After fixing them along the top, the garden felt open yet private. Her climbing roses finally had something sturdy to grow across, and the whole space looked refreshed.

After another weekend of strong winds and broken lap panels, you decide it’s time for a proper fence with no more quick fixes or short-term repairs. 

You want something that stands up strong to the British weather. On our website, two options stand out. The Trade Featheredge Panel offers solid quality at a fair price, and The Beast Closeboard Panel looks built for strength and years of service.

We talk about fencing a lot in the office here at G&G (it’s at the heart of what we do). Not just the sizes or the stock, but what people are asking for and how their tastes continue to change. When we spoke to the team about what’s stood out this year, a clear pattern came up. Customers still want traditional fencing, but theres been a rise in clean lines and muted colours.

Slatted vs. Double Slatted Fence Panels (or Should You Build Your Own?)

Slatted fencing has become a popular choice for people who are after a garden that feels open but still has some privacy. The tricky part is deciding which type to choose.

You can use standard panels or double-slatted panels, which provide more coverage, to build your own using timber battens. There is no right or wrong answer, as we all have different gardens and tastes.

We’ve helped hundreds of people choose the right fencing for their gardens, so we decided to put together this handy little guide to help you make the right choice.
