My back garden runs on a slight slope.
The fence at the bottom (or top as it runs downhill!) of the garden is needing replaced.
I have bought new fence panels and will use 3 of the 4 existing uprights and replace one damaged one.
I have noticed that there is a lot of mud pushing against the bottom of the old panels which has resulted in them breaking.
I have shoveled as much away ahead of inserting new panels but I'm sure I'll have the same problem down the line. In removing the dirt I've noticed a lot of rocks/slates which previous owner must have tried to use as a deterrent but has added to the weight pushing on the panels.
If anyone has had a similar issue it would be great to find out how you got round it!
Cheers,
