New fencing gives you a solid boundary from the back of the garden right up to the house, with a gate that shuts against the wall where you need one. I put up fencing across Fife, and a finished run should be straight and even, with no gaps between the boards.
The picture is an illustration rather than one of my jobs, but it shows the parts to expect. Square timber posts carry a cap on top, and a capping rail runs along the top of the boards. The gate is ledged and braced, hung on long hinges with a ring latch.
I run JV Handyman & Garden Services, and I am fully insured. I am also a registered waste carrier, so the old fence can leave with me instead of sitting at the bottom of the garden.
If you are thinking about a new fence or gate, send me a photo of the boundary and tell me roughly how long it is. You can read more about my fencing work, and I will come out and have a look before I quote.
