How high can my fence be?

Like many things when it comes to building or constructing anything on your property, there are specific regulations that you have to adhere to when erecting a garden fence in order to avoid having to obtain special planning permissions. The height of the fence is one of the factors that has a restrictions on it. In the UK a garden fences can be no higher that 2 meters on most perimeters but only 1 meter high if it is adjining a road. There are of course exceptions to the rule and if you do require a fence to be higher for any reason then it may be possible to do so but you will need to discuss it with your local council to obtain the permission to do so.

Do I have to treat my fence?

You may be wondering if you need to treat your fence once we have installed it for you. In most cases, your fencing will have been pressure tested to ensure there is no rot or decay, however we do also recommend that you have your fence treated if possible at least once every few years. This is not necessarily a requirement, but it certainly helps prolong the lifespan of the fence, and prevents it from wearing down ahead of time. If you're able to do this yourself, feel free to purchase your own treatment and apply it to the fence when you can. Otherwise, our team of professionals will be more than happy to assist you with this process, and we use only the very best fence treatment products to ensure the best finish, that lasts a long time.

It is often the case that the fence on your left hand side, as you look out towards your garden, is the one that you are responsible for maintaining but in actual fact there is now hard and fast rule about this and it can be different for each property, it just depends how it was set up when the property was sectioned off or built. In some cases, if you are at the end of a terrace you may be responsible for 2 fences as you have no neighbour to one side. So before you get into any disputes with your neighbour about who has to repair or replace a broken fence, it is worth checking property information pack that you would have received when you purchased the house. If you do not have that available then your local council should be able to check the town planning records to see who owns what.

What is the cheapest fence to install?

Wooden fences are typically the cheapest fences to buy and install owning to the fact that wood is cheaper than metal and it is simpler and quicker to erect a wooden fence then it is a metal one so the labour will cost you less. There are some other factors that dictate the cost of a fence further and that is the style and the type of wood used. Wood like pine is a lot cheaper than a wood such as cedar or oak so is more commonly used. The style can change the price further as a design that uses more wood and provides more protection and privacy will cost more than a fence that is not overlapped and uses less wood but provides less protection and privacy. As mentioned already metal fences tend to be more expensive and again the style and type of material determines the end price. A solid Iron fence will cost more than an aluminium fence and a chain link fence that uses less material will cost more than a palisade fence.
