How To Use Trellis To Screen Unsightly Areas

Trellis & garden screening - an alternative use.

Do you have an unsightly object in your garden? Are you wanting to hide your wheely bins, hide a car parking area, oil tanks etc?

Using Trellis or other styles of screen fencing is a great way to screen oil tanks, bin stores and other items or areas that you would prefer to keep hidden from view. They offer versatility in choice of styles to suit any theme from traditional to contemporary, and provide a frame on which to introduce climbing plants if desired.

Climbing plants which are ideal for these area are evergreen jasmine, hydrangeas, clematis but also roses, and deciduous plants too.

 

Installing a screen will enable you to offer an attractive area to your garden, which can be easily and quickly adapted to your own taste.  Using trellis or garden screening panels are the perfect solution.

Trellis panels are a good wind proof structure, allowing the wind to penetrate, thus saving on fence post weakness and by using a high quality but at an affordable price, are a good method to hide these devices in a windy environment. Trellis is available in either a natural or painted finish with many colours to choose from.

In this example, a customer has used one of our 6ft by 6ft panels to create the front of the screen and two 650mm high panels, turned on their side to create the side panels.

"Charging by the hour is fine (solicitors etc do it) but it has to be a realistic amount. ie quite a lot.  If you are experienced and with high end equipment that enables you to do the job quickly to a high standard"
