FAQs – Garden Fencing

What types of garden fencing are most popular?

In Fishponds and across Bristol, closeboard fencing, featheredge fencing, and slatted fencing are among the most popular choices. Closeboard and featheredge options are valued for privacy and durability, while slatted fencing offers a more contemporary appearance with airflow and light penetration. Picket fencing, lattice panels, and post and rail systems are also commonly selected depending on the property style and intended use.

Do I need permission to install a new garden fence?

In most residential situations, planning permission is not required if the fence is under two metres high, or under one metre if it borders a public road or footpath. However, restrictions may apply to listed properties, conservation areas, or shared boundaries. It is advisable to confirm boundary ownership and check local guidance before installation to avoid disputes or compliance issues.

How long does professional fence installation take?

The time required depends on the length of the boundary, ground conditions, access, and the type of fencing being installed. A straightforward garden fence replacement may take one to two days, while larger projects or sites requiring groundwork preparation may take longer. Our team will assess the site and provide a realistic timeframe before work begins.

What is the best type of fencing for privacy and security?

Closeboard and featheredge fencing are widely regarded as strong options for privacy and security. These styles use overlapping vertical boards fixed to sturdy posts set in concrete foundations, creating a solid barrier. For added durability, treated timber, concrete posts, and gravel boards can be incorporated to reduce moisture damage and extend lifespan.
