Maintenance Free Fencing

Timber fencing, whilst undeniably visually attractive with its more rustic texture, is an incredibly labour-intensive material to maintain. Most timber will need to be treated, painted, and stained before installation, to help prevent the colour from fading and to protect it from moisture and weathering.

As the bad weather rolls in, another key element of maintaining a so-called low maintenance fence turns to repairing and reinforcing your panels. High winds and poor weather impact fencing considerably, damaging your fence panels and requiring replacement and re-fit.

We understand that the price paid for a composite fencing product exceeds most timber options and that our materials are an investment into your space. Like any good investment, it pays to do your research. When investing in a composite fence, most customers come in with the belief that the product will be a guaranteed “no maintenance fencing product” and unfortunately, many are let down by sub-standard solutions out there on the market that can often be plagued by fading and staining.

Unlike most, NeoTimber® fencing is a capped composite design. This design, first implemented in our decking products, enhances the level of protection from staining and fading. The result is a solution that we believe is the first truly low maintenance fence.

So, exactly what maintenance does your NeoTimber® maintenance free fence boards require? All fencing will need to be cleaned occasionally to keep it looking its best, but you don’t want this to be a regular occurrence or part of your gardening routine. When compared to the process of cleaning timber, alternative composite options and concrete, looking after your NeoTimber® composite fence boards is a far easier and less consuming process.

NeoTimber’s maintenance free fencing boards will only need an occasional clean every 6 months or so, and can be washed down with a hose, sponge and household dish soap. Scrub gently with hot, soapy water, and this should lift most marks.
