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 pool fencing requests in the area come from:
- Estates: estates fence communal pools and clubhouse pool areas
- Homes: homeowners fence pools so young children and pets cannot reach the water
- Farms: farmers fence homestead pools and farm dams near the house
- Schools: schools fence swimming pools so learners can only enter with staff
- Sports clubs: clubs fence swimming pools and splash pads
- Commercial: hotels and guesthouses fence pools for guest safety
