1. Bamboo screens provide shade
Did you know that the Sunshine Coast has about 300 days of sunshine a year? That’s a long period of time to be exposed to the sun’s harsh rays! Bamboo outdoor screens are a quick and modern fix to shield your family from the sun all year long.
Most ordinary fences are tall wooden barriers that prevent prying eyes or unwanted guests. Bamboo screens can not only block out beams of light from the sun, but they do this without hindering the flow of the refreshing breeze. They are also extremely lightweight, meaning the bamboo outdoor screens can simply be installed onto an already existing fence, balustrade, or pergola.
Another way to retreat from the sun but still enjoy your garden sanctuary is to mount a thatched umbrella over a lounge chair or next to the pool. A thatched umbrella is the easiest solution to create a haven where you can just unwind in the shade with a book in your lap and a refreshing iced tea by your side.
2. A bamboo fence keeps animals out
Animals such as rodents, possums, or even meek insects cause enormous amounts of property damage every year. Living in the subtropical climate of the Sunshine Coast can draw in many pesky, unwanted visitors during the day and night. Bamboo fencing screens will keep all sorts of animals out of your land, helping to safeguard your material goods and health of your garden.
3. An outdoor bamboo screen can also keep animals in

There’s also no denying a bamboo fencing screen’s structure and durability, it won’t break or bend from your dog’s active enthusiasm. A bamboo fence is extremely sturdy, robust, and resilient, making it the perfect fencing screen for medium to large dogs. They’re so resistant in fact they hold up against weight, wind, and weather change, so you can rest easy knowing your boisterous pup will stay enclosed at home.
4. A bamboo privacy fence is water resistant
Bamboo fencing is a great choice for a Sunshine Coast home. As bamboo is a type of grass it is more water resistant than typical hardwood, making it perfect for those few rainy months a year. However, it is important to note that bamboo is not waterproof.
Although bamboo is naturally a strong material, it is constantly subjected to wind, rain, UV rays, dust, pests, and debris being constantly outdoors. The repeating sequence of being subjected to moisture and drying out can create small breaks on the surface of the bamboo. The UV radiation from being in the ever-sunny Sunshine Coast can also cause the fibres to break down, causing damage to your bamboo screens.
There is a silver lining, there are steps you can take to extend the life of your bamboo fence. Examine your bamboo screens every few months for any impairments or pests. You’ll also want to check if the bamboo starts to crack, peel, mould or amass vermin and insects. Catching on to any noticeable concerns rapidly and resolving them as soon as possible will prevent further damage in the future, which could result in more money spent.
Finally, use a bamboo protector and rejuvenator every three years or so to prevent mould and bamboo rot. It’s best to give the bamboo fence a good clean by power wash beforehand to remove any bugs or dust that might have accumulated over time.
