Who needs fencing in George
George is the main town on the Garden Route, with retirement and golf estates, freestanding homes and holiday properties. Estates choose clear view or palisade perimeters, and homes add electric fencing and gates. Dairy, timber and hop farms around George and the Langkloof need stock fencing, diamond mesh and farm gates. Schools and sports clubs fence fields with mesh. High rainfall and coastal air mean galvanised and coated steel last much longer, and fire risk near plantations affects material choices.

Typical fence installation requests in the area come from:
- Estates: estates hire contractors for perimeter and internal fencing
- Homes: homeowners hire contractors to fence boundaries, pools and driveways
- Farms: farmers hire contractors for camps, boundaries and homestead fencing
- Schools: schools hire contractors to fence grounds and sports fields
- Sports clubs: clubs hire contractors for court and field fencing
- Commercial: businesses hire contractors for perimeter, yard and parking fencing
