Questions
The things people ask first
How much does a new fence cost?
It depends on length, height and the ground. As a rough guide, most garden runs land between a few hundred pounds for repairs and a few thousand for a full replacement with concrete posts. You get a fixed written price before we start, and the price quoted is the price paid.
How high can my fence be without planning permission?
In most back and side gardens the limit is 2 metres. Next to a road or public path at the front it drops to 1 metre. Trellis on top counts towards the height. If your home is listed or in a conservation area, different rules apply. We check this before we build.
Which side of the fence do I own?
There is no automatic rule in the UK, whatever the neighbours say. Your title deeds are what counts. If the deeds do not say, we can often tell from which side the posts face, and it is worth a friendly word with your neighbour before work starts.
Do I need to tell my neighbour?
Legally, usually not, if the fence is on your land and within height limits. But a quick heads-up avoids problems, and we are happy to fit from your side only so nobody else’s garden is disturbed.
How long does a fence last?
Treated timber panels on concrete posts usually give 20 years or more. Timber posts are always the first thing to rot because they sit in the ground, which is why we recommend concrete posts and gravel boards where the budget allows.
How long does the job take?
A typical garden run is one to two days, including removing the old fence. Bigger jobs or difficult access can add a day. We tell you before we start, not after.
Do you take the old fence away?
Yes. Removal and disposal are included in the quote. The garden is left swept and tidy.
