Timber is also a hard wearing material that requires very little maintenance to stay looking good for many years, so once you have your privacy screen in place, you can enjoy your pool or hot tub, safe in the knowledge that nobody can see into your backyard.
And if you want to add some extra colour to your privacy screen, try planting a few climbing plants around the base of the screen and within a few years, the foliage will have grown and if the plant has flowers, your backyard privacy screen will be a riot of colour and verdant greenery during the spring and summer months.
