Re: Timber Fencing Double lapped and capped Problem 18Apr 10, 2015 3:04 pm I always thought that the fences all had to follow the lead of the 'first' house in the street/line, regardless of whether the 'first' house is already built or not. For example, the block at the top (or end) of the street would have to have the rails on their side so that the 'outer/flat' side of the fence, which is seen by the public, doesn't have the rails. This would then flow on up the street, so if going left to right up the street, the first house will have rails on the left side fence but no rails on the right side fence, as the next neighbour to the right of them will then have the rails on their left, but none on the right..... If you get me. Not sure if this is actually true but I thought that this was how it worked and it seems to make sense to me. I have no idea about the back fence, though. TBH I don't think I am going to care what side the rails are on. Our back fence has been done by the estate, as we back onto an existing area, and we don't have the rails along the back. I plan on painting all our fences a dark grey for contrast against the plants. The rail side will be harder to paint, but that's all. As someone else has said, the rails side can be handy if you want to run creepers or something like that up the fence. Maybe talk to a fencing company to see if there are any 'rules' - they would be more in the know than anyone.
