But the solution is simple. Think ahead and design your garden for longevity and minimal maintenance. Choose plants for the climate and take care following planting instructions to ensure they\u2019ll get the necessary sunlight and water. Plus, think about their positioning. If they\u2019re going to drop leaves all year round don\u2019t plant them near your pond or pool and don\u2019t line your footpath with them. Be strategic and save yourself the hassle later on.<\/p>\n<p>The other major way to keep maintenance costs down is to invest in quality to save yourself time down the road. Choose quality paving that won\u2019t need constant cleaning or repair. Invest in furniture that will stay looking good despite the elements, and choose a durable ToughGuard20 fence that is designed to last. All ToughGuard20 fences are made from powdercoated aluminium, so you won\u2019t need to worry about rust or corrosion. Aluminium is renowned for being long lasting and durable even under the most extreme weather conditions. This means your ToughGuard20 fence will stay looking good for years to come, with minimal maintenance required. To maintain your ToughGuard20 fence simply remove dirt and grime on a regular basis to prevent any build up. It\u2019s that simple.<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1399 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/ToughGuard20-blog-garden-fencing-low-maintenance-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"539\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 960px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 960\/539;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1399\" src=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/ToughGuard20-blog-garden-fencing-low-maintenance-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"539\" \/><\/noscript><\/h2>\n<h2>Turn your garden into a vacation worthy retreat<\/h2>\n<p>A big trend we\u2019re seeing in 2019 gardens are vacation worthy backyards. These backyards feature a stand-out element that takes your garden to the next level. A popular example is a well-curated pool area. Don\u2019t just dig a hole, put up a standard pool fence and call it a day. Pay attention to the details and create a poolside retreat that can be enjoyed for many summers to come. Create your signature pool area using quality tiles, lush plants, stylish and durable furniture and a quality ToughGuard20 pool fence. ToughGuard20 create stylish yet secure pool fences. ToughGuard20 fences feature a patented design that was developed to add strength by transferring impact and ground movement more evenly around the post. This creates a strong and sturdy pool fence for maximum security. So when you\u2019re creating your backyard luxury retreat, be sure to include a trendy glass pool fence with ToughGuard20 balustrade posts for the perfect combination of security and style. Plus, top your area off with a set of weatherproof speakers and you\u2019ve got a vacation spot right here in your backyard.<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1398 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/ToughGuard20-blog-garden-fencing-decor-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 960px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 960\/640;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1398\" src=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/ToughGuard20-blog-garden-fencing-decor-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" \/><\/noscript><\/h2>\n<h2>Brighten up your backyard<\/h2>\n<p>In 2019 we\u2019re seeing bold colours coming back into style.
