FAQs

Do you need the neighbours' permission to put up a trellis?

You're not allowed to make any changes to a fence owned by your neighbour. This means you can't attach a trellis or use preservatives. You can only put up a trellis on a fence on your side.

Does the trellis count as fence height?

It depends on your local authorities. A trellis is a temporary structure; to others, it’s a garden wall or fence. If you want it classed as a temporary structure, make sure it is not over 2 metres in height.

Where is the best place to put a trellis?

The best place to put a trellis is where the climbing plants do not suffocate. Think of the possibility of the trellis shading any nearby plants and position it correctly. Placing it along the north edge of the fence or in the backyard ensures maximum sunlight for the surrounding greenery.

Can I put a trellis on top of my garden fence?

You can put a trellis on top of your garden fence. First, talk to your neighbours about the plan. The extended height may affect the light reaching their garden or hinder their pets' ability to move around. You must also understand your local authority’s definition of extended fences.

What veggies grow well on a trellis?
