Composite Fence Boards

Composite fence boards offer a modern and sophisticated option for fencing your garden or outdoor space.

Each composite fence board in our range has a six-hole honeycomb core, which allows it to better withstand the elements, providing a stronger, more durable structure as an alternative to traditional timber fencing.

Choosing the Best Fence Boards for Your Garden

With such a wide range of fence boards available, it can be difficult to decide which works best for your garden. There are several factors to consider, such as the material’s durability and aesthetic appeal, your required fence board dimensions, and the type of posts which will support your fence.

We supply a range of timber and composite fence boards, both of which are fantastic options for any garden, and can offer unique benefits depending on your requirements. Before purchasing your new fence boards, it’s helpful to assess your individual needs and consider the following factors:

  • Durability: When installing your new garden fence, you’ll want to ensure that it will last as long as possible to avoid time-consuming maintenance or replacement costs. Whilst timber boards are typically pressure-treated and dip-treated to provide increased protection against the elements, composite fence boards can often outperform traditional timber fence panels in their longevity and natural resistance to rot, insects and weathering.
  • Appearance: Whilst the strength of your fence boards is important, they can also be used to complement your garden’s design. As such, it’s helpful to consider the desired look of your new fence. Timber fence panels are an excellent option if you’re looking for a more traditional, natural effect to blend in with your outdoor space, with some landscapers even taking a more modern approach with horizontal timber decking board fences. Alternatively, composite decking offers more versatility with a spectrum of colours available, and a sleek contemporary design.
  • Cost: To ensure that your garden design project remains on budget, it’s important to consider the cost of your fence boards in advance, as well as the added costs of structural elements such as fence posts and concrete gravel boards or kicker boards. Timber fence panels tend to be less expensive than composite boards upfront, but can be more costly in the long term as they require replacing more often. It can also help to consider whether you’ll need to include costs for professional installation.
  • Environmental Impact: Our environmental footprint is becoming an increasingly important factor when making home design decisions. Although timber fence boards are a renewable resource and typically sourced from well-managed forests, composite panels are considered a uniquely eco-friendly option for fencing owing to their recycled composition.
  • Maintenance: Different fencing materials require different levels of upkeep. Timber panels, for example, demand a little extra attention through regular treatments and coatings to decelerate natural decomposition. Maintenance time can be mitigated slightly by installing closeboard fencing instead of fence panels, but for a low-maintenance option, composite fence boards are favoured owing to their natural resistance to wear and tear.
