Low maintenance
Composite panels do not normally require the repeated painting, staining or oiling associated with timber fencing. General cleaning is usually the main routine care requirement.

Modern garden boundaries
Composite fencing built around your property
From replacing tired timber panels to creating a complete new garden boundary, composite fencing provides a clean, modern finish with far less routine maintenance than traditional painted timber fencing.
A practical alternative to timber fencing
Composite fencing panels are designed for homeowners who want privacy, definition and a smart finished appearance without committing to the regular painting, staining and treatment that traditional timber fencing often needs.
Every fence installation should be planned around the property itself. We consider the existing boundary line, levels, access, neighbouring structures, wall junctions, changes in direction, gate positions, posts and how the finished fence will connect with patios, decking, lawns and side entrances.
ATHLONE ROOFING & PVC can handle the full installation rather than simply swapping panels into an unsuitable or unstable existing structure.

Why composite fencing?
Designed for modern, lower-maintenance gardens
Composite fencing combines a contemporary appearance with straightforward day-to-day care and can work particularly well alongside composite decking and railing.
Consistent appearance
Uniform panels and posts create clean lines across garden boundaries, helping the whole outdoor area look more deliberate and professionally finished.
Privacy and screening
Full-height composite fencing can create a more private garden environment around seating areas, patios, hot tubs, side passages and rear boundaries.
Works with composite projects
Fencing can be coordinated with composite decking and railing so the visible finishes, corners and overall style work together across the garden.
Different applications
Composite fencing for boundaries, privacy and garden design
The same fencing system can solve very different problems depending on where and how it is used.
Rear garden boundaries
A complete composite boundary can replace tired timber panels and give the garden a more modern, consistent backdrop. This is especially effective where the garden is being landscaped or upgraded at the same time.
Side boundaries
Composite fencing can provide a clean, private division between neighbouring areas or between the garden and side access routes.
Patio and seating-area screening
Strategically positioned fence panels can create a more private, enclosed feel around an outdoor dining area, patio or social seating space without necessarily fencing the whole garden.
Side passages and utility areas
Shorter fencing runs can screen bins, storage areas, side passages and practical parts of the property that you may not want visible from the main garden.
Driveway and front garden boundaries
Where appropriate for the property and local requirements, composite fencing can help define a driveway, front boundary or access route while maintaining a clean modern look.
Garden dividers
Panels can be used within the garden to divide play areas, seating spaces, storage areas or planting zones and create a more organised layout.
Wind and visual screening
Solid or near-solid panel layouts can help create sheltered-feeling areas and reduce direct sightlines, although the suitability of any installation depends on exposure and the site itself.
Complete exterior upgrades
Composite fencing can be installed alongside decking and railing to create a coordinated exterior scheme across several areas of the property.
Installation details
The details that make a composite fence look right
Good fencing is about much more than the panels themselves. Alignment, support, post spacing and how the fence starts and finishes all affect the final appearance.
Post layout
Post positions are planned to suit the panel system, boundary line, corners, entrances and any changes in direction.
Panel alignment
Panels are fitted consistently so the top line, vertical joints and spacing remain balanced across the installation.
Corners and returns
Internal corners, external corners and fence returns are planned carefully so the finished boundary looks intentional from both directions.
Ends and wall junctions
Where fencing meets a wall, gate, existing fence or open end, the termination is considered as part of the overall finish.
Replacement fencing
Replacing old timber fencing with composite panels
One of the most common reasons for choosing composite is to replace an ageing fence that needs repeated repair, painting or panel replacement.
Assessment before replacement
Before fitting new composite panels, the existing fence line should be assessed rather than assuming the old posts and supports can simply be reused.
- Condition of existing posts
- Stability of the boundary line
- Changes in garden level
- Existing concrete or timber supports
- Access for removal and installation
- Gate and entrance positions
- Wall or building junctions
A cleaner long-term upgrade
Replacing worn timber panels with composite can remove the cycle of repainting and repeated panel deterioration while giving the garden a more contemporary appearance.
Where the existing supporting structure is unsuitable, we can discuss a more complete replacement so the new system is installed on a proper basis rather than compromised by old components.
Planning the boundary
From first measurement to final panel
A good composite fence depends on careful setting out, suitable supports and clean finishing at every junction.
1. Site assessment
We look at the boundary line, existing fencing, levels, access, gates and surrounding garden features.
2. Layout planning
Panel runs, posts, corners, returns and access points are planned before installation begins.
3. Posts and supports
The supporting system is prepared and aligned before the composite panels are fitted.
4. Panels and finishing
Panels are installed consistently before corners, ends, caps, gate openings and adjoining composite work are completed.
Gates and access
Keeping the garden secure without losing practicality
Fencing still needs to work with the way you enter, maintain and use the property.
Garden gates
Where a compatible gate solution is suitable, gate openings can be planned as part of the fence rather than cut into the layout afterwards.
We consider the opening width, route through the garden, adjacent posts, steps or paving and how the gate aligns with the surrounding panels.
Side access
Side passages often need a combination of privacy and straightforward access for bins, bikes, garden equipment and maintenance. The fence layout can be planned around that use.
Access for maintenance
Where utilities, drains, sheds or service areas sit behind a fence line, access requirements should be considered before the installation is finalised.
Combining fencing and railing
In some gardens, a full-height fence may be suitable for privacy while lower composite railing is better around a deck or social area. The transition between the two can be planned as part of one exterior project.
Composite combinations
Fencing, decking and railing that work together
Composite products can be combined across the same property to create a more consistent and lower-maintenance outdoor scheme.
Composite decking
Use matching or complementary fencing to frame a new deck, create privacy and complete an entertaining area.
Composite Decking →Composite railing
Combine full-height fencing with lower railing around raised decks, steps and social areas.
Composite Railing →Privacy zones
Create screened areas around patios, outdoor dining, seating or practical storage without changing the entire garden boundary.
Garden transformations
Coordinate fencing, decking and railing so the whole exterior project shares the same visual language and finishing quality.

Questions answered
Composite fencing FAQs
Does composite fencing need painting?
Routine painting or staining is not normally required. General cleaning requirements depend on the product installed and the environment around the property.
Can composite fencing replace existing timber panels?
Yes, but the existing posts and supports need to be assessed first. It is not always sensible to install a new composite system onto an old structure that is already deteriorating.
Can composite fencing be used for privacy?
Yes. Full-height or near-solid panel systems can be used to create privacy screening around garden boundaries, patios, seating areas and side passages.
Can you install just one section?
Yes, depending on the site and product system. Composite panels can be useful for localised screening even where the whole boundary is not being replaced.
Can a gate be included?
Where a compatible gate arrangement is suitable, an opening can be incorporated into the overall fence layout.
Can composite fencing be fitted on a sloping garden?
Potentially, yes. The layout needs to take account of the change in level, panel system, post positions and the way the finished top line should look.
Can I choose the colour and style?
Composite fencing systems are available in different styles and colour families. The exact options depend on the product system chosen.
Can damaged panels be replaced individually?
That depends on the age and compatibility of the existing system and whether matching components are available. We can assess whether a localised repair is practical.
Do you also install composite decking?
Yes. ATHLONE ROOFING & PVC also provides composite decking and composite railing, allowing several exterior composite elements to be planned together.
Can fencing be added beside an existing deck or patio?
Yes. The fence can be planned around the existing outdoor layout, provided suitable support, access and boundary conditions are available.
