Concrete Gravel Boards
Concrete gravel boards are the foundation of a strong, long-lasting fence. They create a protective barrier between your wooden panels and the ground, stopping moisture from creeping in and causing rot. Unlike timber gravel boards, concrete is tough, durable, and built to withstand the elements for decades.
Our gravel boards will slot right into place if you’re using slotted concrete fence posts. And when the time comes to replace your fence panels, you won't need to start from scratch - simply swap out the panel and leave the gravel board where it is.
