It's a standard PVC 5' tall x 8' wide panel with a 1' lattice topper.

While white fencing isn't for me in a back garden, I have seen loads of pics here on Houzz with white fences and, although they mostly seem to be over in the USA (let's face it - they tend to have better daylight in parts of North America than we do in the UK) I do like the look of it, though. I especially like the whitewash appearance if you're going for a Cottage Garden as it adds a weathered appeal. I went for black in my garden which looks pretty stylish, especially with the greens and whites in front of it. I used to live in a house with a roof terrace and we were advised at the time to not use white on the inside of the parapet walls as it would glare too much. The chosen option for the wall was pale grey (before it was fashionable) and it worked really well. For this reason, I wouldn't have gone for white fence or white furniture.

Horizontal fencing. What wood ?

The cheapest option is treated softwood battens, 19x38 works well, pretty much all timber merchants will stock these or similar. They still look good, maybe not as good as a Western red cedar in my opinion but less then half the price per linear metre... One thing to keep in mind, if your going to use a nailgun (recommended) its the cost of the nails that will get you!

Help need on what colours to paint fence
Q

If you are set on painting then go with a contrasting colour to the paving, a darker tone of grey for the horizontal slats. As for paint I would choose the Valspa decking paint from B&Q as this is much better wearing and seems to have a better coverage than fencing paints. Also this being designed for decks it does not need as much repainting as fence paint and to some degree be washed down. As for the fence around the lawn area it depends if you are planting around the borders or not. Whatever you do there the fence will go green under the overhanging foliage and will need to be cleaned on a regular basis. If it was me I would be tempted to leave it to weather naturally as once you start painting a fence, you will always be painting it to keep it looking good.

I’d say no. If he wants 4” of your land he can buy it from you! It’s possible to remove concrete posts, or they could reposition the posts so they come at different points along the boundary to the concrete ones. Sounds like they are after the cheapest, least hassle option for them. You don’t have to take this. Stand your ground (literally!)
