- Panel fencing/close board fencing: with a heavy duty construction, this type of fencing affords maximum privacy and security.
- Post and rail: usually used as a boundary fencing in a field or large garden.
- Garden trellises: an optional addition to the top of fences to allow for climbing/trailing plants.
- Picket fencing: attractive, simple and effective in cases where privacy is not a concern.
- Custom fencing: let us make you the envy of your neighbours with fencing designed and built to your specification.
If you would like to discuss your decking options, please get in touch. We can create a wealth of different solutions, from single to multi-level decks, efficiently utilising your space to bring your home life into the great outdoors! Our most commonly installed decking options are:
- Traditional wood: tanalised to prolong life span, this is our most popular option, and the most economical option, at least in the short term.
- Modern composite: this can be recycled, is extremely low maintenance and more long lasting than the traditional wood, but does have a higher initial price.
- Top quality, commercial tanalised wood. We prefer to use this standard of wood when possible, as it has a far superior life span and provides a strong and sturdy deck area.
The most popular type of paving we use is natural stone. It has been used for thousands of years and provides a long lasting, hard-wearing base. Its colour is variable, not determined by chemicals or dyes but by the site the stone was quarried. Modern technology means that this stone can be sized, shaped and designed to your specification. Stone is a very low maintenance option once laid.
There are three main types of man made paving: riven effect, textured and decorative.
- Riven effect paving mimics the appearance of old stone flags yet is made from cast concrete. These flags are often laid using a random pattern effect. It is well worth investing in good quality riven paving, as supplied by ourselves, rather then grabbing the first flags you find at your local DIY shop, as there is a huge difference in performance.
- Textured effect slabs have a surface that has been altered in some way during manufacture. This can produce a coarse, polished or smooth finish, often created in a wet press.
- Decorative finish covers the remainder of the man-made paving types. From ‘wood look’ to bricks, imitation cobbles and railway sleepers, these types of paving can create the perfect finish for a particular style or theme of a garden.
At Bourne Again Gardens we create a patio with a maximum life span. All patios are laid into a wet mix of sand and cement, so once dry they form a solid base. Once the base is dry, the area between slabs is pointed with a wet mix, which prevents weeds from growing between your paving, completing the bond and ensuring a long life for your patio area.
We also offer a patio revival service, where we lift your existing patio, level the area and relay your patio at the same level. This will give it a new lease of life and is a popular option with clients who have had their current patio in place for several years.
There are a great number of different sizes, colours, textures and types of gravel to suit all gardens. We can source them all, ready to lay on footpaths, driveways, borders and between patio areas for that functional yet decorative finishing touch.
