Types of Garden Fencing We Provide

Finding the right fence for your garden depends on your personal taste, needs, and budget. We offer several fencing styles to help you create an outdoor space that looks great and provides the security you need.

Picket Fences

If you love a timeless look, picket fences are a great option. They have evenly spaced vertical boards attached to horizontal rails, which define your yard without fully blocking the view. Sunlight can pass through, keeping the garden bright and open while ensuring children and pets remain safely inside. You can choose decorative, pointed, or rounded tops to suit your style. Painting them white adds a classic feel, but you can also use any other color to match your home. Picket fences are also helpful for supporting low-growing plants, creating a welcoming border around your property.

Wooden Panel Fences

Wooden panel fences are a practical and versatile choice for many homes. They are made from high-quality timber and come in designs such as overlap or more decorative patterns. These panels provide good privacy and security, and you can paint or stain them in any shade to suit your garden theme. Because individual panels can be replaced or repaired, wooden fences are easy to maintain. With regular treatment and care, they can last for years, offering a warm and natural look to your outdoor area.

Closeboard Fencing

For strength and durability, closeboard fencing is hard to beat. Also known as featheredge fencing, it uses vertical boards that overlap on horizontal rails and sturdy posts. This design creates a solid structure that stands up well against wind and offers strong privacy. Closeboard fences can be built in different heights, which helps meet both security needs and style preferences. They also work on sloped ground without leaving gaps at the bottom. When treated with preservative, closeboard fencing resists rot and insect damage, making it a reliable option that will serve you for a long time.

Composite Fencing

Composite fencing is made from a mix of recycled plastic and wood fibers, creating a strong and low-maintenance option for your yard. It resists rot, mold, and insects, so it stays in good shape without regular treatments. Many models are designed to look like natural wood and come in various colors and finishes. Because it uses recycled materials, composite fencing is a friendlier choice for the environment, and a simple wash with soap and water is often enough to keep it clean.

Trellis Fencing

Trellis fencing uses slim wooden strips arranged in square or diamond-shaped openings, bringing a decorative element to your garden. Light and air can pass through freely, making it perfect for supporting climbing plants such as roses, clematis, or honeysuckle. It can also create partial screens or help divide sections of your yard without closing off the space. You can use trellis panels on their own or pair them with solid fencing to increase height and add visual interest.

Metal Fences

Metal fences, often made of steel or wrought iron, add both security and style. They come in many designs, ranging from clean, modern lines to ornate patterns. Metal fencing usually requires minimal maintenance and can be powder-coated in various colors to resist rust. Because these fences offer clear visibility, they are often used around front gardens, patios, or driveways to showcase landscaping while still defining boundaries.

We provide these fencing choices so you can find the best match for your needs, ensuring your fence not only serves its purpose but also enhances the beauty and value of your home.

Our Installation Process

Garden Fencing Consultation

We begin by talking with you about your style, budget, and practical needs. During this stage, we also take a close look at your garden and recommend the fence that best meets your goals.

Site Preparation

Once you decide on the fencing style, our team clears the space, removes any old fencing, and marks the new fence line to keep everything organized.

Securing the Posts

After the site is ready, we place strong fence posts into the ground and use concrete to keep them in place. This step is key to ensuring that your fence stands firm and remains stable over time.

Attaching Panels or Boards

When the posts are secure, our installers either attach pre-made panels or build the fence by adding individual boards. Each section is checked carefully to make sure everything lines up correctly.

Final Checks

We then fasten all the fittings and straighten any parts that need adjusting. This helps the fence look neat and professional.

Cleanup

To wrap up, we remove any leftover materials and tidy the area. Once we finish, your new fence will be ready to use.

Maintenance and Care

Regular Washing

Wipe away dirt and debris with a soft brush or a gentle spray of water from a hose. This helps the fence look fresh and prevents buildup.

Protective Treatments

Apply stains, paint, or wood preservative every few years to protect against moisture and harsh weather.

Frequent Inspections

Check the fence for loose parts or damage, especially after strong winds. Addressing problems early can help you avoid bigger fixes later.

If you need extra help, our team can handle ongoing maintenance so your fence stays in top shape for years to come.

We Use Quality Materials

We choose premium materials from reputable Gloucestershire suppliers, making sure your new fence is built to last. By using timber that is specially treated to protect against rot and insects, we help your fence stay strong and in good shape for many years. If you prefer a more eco-friendly approach, we also offer sustainable options that reduce environmental impact without sacrificing quality.

Patio Installation

A well-planned patio can turn your garden into a comfortable spot for relaxing, socializing, or enjoying meals with family and friends. By blending the indoors and outdoors, a patio gives you a pleasant extension of your home for daily use or special occasions. We offer professional patio installation to help you get the most out of your yard, no matter its size or style.

Why Install a Patio

Adding a patio to your garden brings many advantages. It creates extra living space where you can host barbecues, read a book in the sun, or simply unwind with a cup of tea. Because patios require less upkeep than lawns and flowerbeds, you can spend more time enjoying your garden instead of maintaining it. A well-built patio can also boost the appeal of your home, potentially increasing its overall value.

Our Patio Installation Process

Consultation and Design

We start by listening to your ideas, noting down your tastes and budget. Our team then looks at your outdoor area to identify the best placement and size for your patio. We help you pick materials and designs that fit both your personal style and the character of your home.

Site Preparation

Once the plan is set, we clear the space and check the ground to ensure it is ready for construction. In many cases, we level the area or add drainage solutions to prevent water from pooling.

Foundation and Base Layer

A stable foundation is key to a patio that stands the test of time. We lay a solid base of compacted gravel or hardcore, which supports the paving materials and reduces shifting or sinking later on.

Laying the Paving

With the foundation ready, we position your chosen pavers, such as natural stone, brick, or concrete slabs. Our team carefully arranges each piece to maintain consistent spacing and alignment, adding visual interest with different patterns if you prefer.

Finishing Touches

After the main surface is in place, we fill the joints with mortar or sand to secure everything. We can also install edges, steps, or other features that complete the design and help the patio blend smoothly with the rest of the garden.

Cleanup and Inspection

Before we consider the project finished, we tidy the area and make sure no debris is left behind. Finally, we inspect the patio to confirm it meets our standards and ensure you are pleased with the result.

Personalizing Your Patio

Every outdoor space is unique, and we offer many ways to make your patio stand out. You can choose from different shapes, such as square, circular, or free-form designs. If you have a favorite look or color scheme, pick from a range of paving materials and finishes that match your home’s style. You might also include built-in seating, planters, or outdoor lighting for extra comfort and ambiance.

Pairing Patios with Fencing

Our patio installations work especially well when combined with a new fence. Fences supply privacy and security, while a patio gives you a relaxing surface to spend time outdoors. By choosing materials and colors that complement each other, you can create a garden setting that feels welcoming and cohesive.

Quality Materials and Workmanship

We are committed to using dependable materials and proven methods so your patio remains strong and attractive for years to come. Our skilled installers take pride in paying close attention to details, from laying the foundation to sealing the final pavers. Proper leveling and drainage methods help prevent standing water and uneven surfaces.

Caring for the Environment

We aim to reduce our impact on nature by making careful choices in materials and handling waste responsibly. We often partner with suppliers who focus on sustainable resources. During the installation, we also do our best to protect existing plants and trees, leaving your garden in good shape.

Common Questions

Do I need permission for a ground-level patio?

Most ground-level patios do not require special approval. However, if your property is listed or lies in a protected area, different rules might apply. We can guide you through any regulations so you stay compliant.

How long will my patio last?

When built with sturdy materials and regularly maintained, a patio can last for many years. We use reliable products and methods to make sure your outdoor surface stays in good condition.
