Fence Painting: The Ultimate Guide

Looking to personalise your garden? Painting your fence is a brilliant way to brighten up your surroundings. Whether you want to simply refresh your garden with a fresh coat of fence stain, or you want to switch up the look completely with a bold and colourful fence colour. Painting a wooden fence is a quick and easy job to do. Read this step-by-step guide and we’ll walk you through the process.

1. Prepare your surroundings

First and foremost, ensure you pick a day when the weather is clear and dry. Then, clear the area around your garden fence. Cut back any trees or shrubs or tie them back to make sure they’re out of the way of your workspace. Move garden furniture out of the way and cover your patio, decking, or lawn with plastic sheets to protect it from any paint splashes.

2. Wash and sand your fence

Your fence may be covered in dirt and cobwebs from the harsh winter. You’ll want to remove any dirt, debris or flaking bits of old paint so that it’s ready for a new lease of life. A stiff brush will usually do the trick, but if your fence is really caked in dirt, you can use warm soapy water to help get it off. If you do use water to clean the fence, make sure it’s thoroughly dry before attempting to paint.

3. Apply the fence paint/stain

It’s time to get painting! Choose fence paint with a tough and durable formula that has been specially designed to be used on exterior wood. Whether you use a paintbrush or paint sprayer is up to you.

If you’re using a fence paint brush, ensure that you paint following the direction of the wood grain for a smooth finish. Make sure you start from the top and slowly work your way down so that you catch any paint and avoid waste. If you’ve got a large surface area, a fence sprayer will help you get the job done quickly. Ensure you wear a dust mask and goggles and make sure you’ve covered the areas surrounding the fence properly, as there will be a little bit of overspray.

Allow the paint or stain to dry for as many hours as the tin advises and reapply coats as needed.

4. Clean your tools

Your tools are important, make sure you can use them again! If you’ve used water-based paint, you can simply wash your brushes in warm, soapy water. If you’ve used oil-based paint, you’ll want to soak your brushes in white spirit to get the paint off. This is because oil and water don’t mix.

Take a Look At Our NEW, Contemporary Fencing

When looking for perfect fencing, it can be difficult to find something that matches your unique style, everywhere seems to have similar styles. Here at eDecks, we know that struggle, so to combat fencing disappointment we’ve released four new contemporary styles!

Contemporary Lattice Fencing

First up are our contemporary lattice fence panels, a sleek alternative to traditional fencing; by being a semi-solid decorative panel, they are ideal for creating a lighter garden where privacy is not an issue. These panels would look amazing alongside a modern extension or city garden, they would also work well as a garden divider to add more depth and act as a trellis for climbing plants. They are also handmade in our very own factory and pressure-treated to BS8417 at our treatment works to maximise the lifespan of the timber by up to 15 years. This treatment creates an effective barrier to infestation by insects and fungi so the panels will look fantastic for years!

Hightop vertilap Fencing

These panels have a rustic look that’s hard not to love. This design is a fencing staple known for its durability. Handcrafted by our skilled panel makers, the high top vertilap panel takes a traditional featheredge design and gives it a modern twist with the top edge cut out. They are also pressure treated to improve longevity and fixed using galvanised nails throughout for long life. Packing feather edge boards tightly together and the sturdy back supports means that strong winds and the elements are no match for these panels. These boards are truly made to last. Again, these panels are handmade and pressure treated in our workshops so they have real quality.

Lattice top overlap Fencing

If you’re a fan of traditional fencing this new style might be for you. Expertly handcrafted, lattice top overlap fence panels are a hybrid of two popular products combined to create a stylish new design. These panels provide the sleek modern feel of a slatted panel, but with the added benefit of extra privacy and protection that some people may prefer, with the solid waney edge effect on the lower part of the panel. They are dip treated to a nice golden brown colour in our own factory, care is taken to see the panels are preserved thoroughly. Not only all that, but they are also compatible with concrete posts, so they can easily replace your current panels!

Composite Fencing: The Low Maintenance, Environmentally Friendly Solution For Your Garden

Choosing the correct fencing for your garden can be difficult, especially as we approach the harsher winter months, but composite fencing may be the answer to all your concerns! In this article we will help you decide if this fencing is right for you, discussing the pros and cons.

What is composite fencing?

Most garden fences are made from soft or hardwoods, and whilst composite fencing is a newer product it is set to change the game with fencing choices. Composite fencing offers many unique features and is even made from recycled materials to help you reduce your carbon footprint, which is more important today than ever.

Composite fencing is made from a mixture of plastic and wood, these elements together give the fencing a natural wood look whilst the plastic makes maintenance much easier and gives your fencing a much longer lifespan, up to 20 years. Meaning you save money and the planet! What’s not to love?

Is composite fencing right for you?

Every garden has different needs, but everyone can agree that a 20-year guarantee on fencing is unbeatable.

Not convinced yet? here are just some of the top attributes of composite fencing:

  • The combination of wood and plastic makes the fencing extremely strong, it can withstand high impact
  • More weatherproof than standalone wood products, meaning no moss build up from rainfall
  • Environmentally friendly manufactured from 75% recycled materials
  • Stronger than concrete posts
  • Simple to install at home without professional help

However, there may be some factors that make you decide against composite fencing:

  • It can be more expensive than soft or hardwood (However treatment for wood fencing can end up costing more!)
  • There is less customisation than wood fencing – but it can look much more modern!
