Fence Painting

[Palustris]

Out of curiosity, if one does not own a boundary fence, may one actually paint the side of it in your garden a nicer colour than the normal reddish that fences come in?

[bookbinder]

It would be polite to ask the fence owner first.

[hc4361]

You must ask the owner. You can always erect your own fence alongside the existing one

[woofgang]

not polite bookbinder.....essential!

[TonyV]

Talk to owner of fence and decide on colour you both like.

[woofgang]

whatever you want or don't want, you can't do anything to a fence that you do not own without the permission of the owner.

[Peter Pedant]

whatever you do
dont get into a neighbourhood fence dispute

so ask the owneer and if demurs - call it a day

[douglas9401]

Plant good old-fashioned leylandii on your side and see what develops.

[Palustris]

There is already 50 feet of Leylandii in the garden, no-one could possibly want any more.
It was just out of curiosity not actually in a position to paint anything.
