Garden Fencing in Leigh, Wigan

Why do some fences seem to last decades while others buckle after the first winter? It usually comes down to the quality of the installation and the materials used. In Leigh, we deal with our fair share of wind and rain, which is why we're big fans of 'Hit and Miss' fencing. This clever design allows the breeze to pass through the panels rather than hitting them like a sail, significantly reducing the risk of storm damage. As local Leigh fencing contractors, we don't just 'slap them in'—we ensure every post is set deep with high-quality post mix and every panel is perfectly level, even on those tricky sloping Wigan gardens.

Are you looking for the heavy-duty strength of closeboard fencing, or do you prefer the traditional look of a picket fence for your front garden? Most homeowners we speak to in Leigh opt for feather edge panels because they're incredibly sturdy and provide a seamless, private border. If you're on a tighter budget, a well-installed waney lap fence can still look fantastic and do the job perfectly. We also supply and fit bespoke garden gates to match your new panels, ensuring your property is fully secure from front to back. We'll talk you through the options, from decorative trellis tops to classic timber fencing, so you get a look that suits your house.

One of the biggest mistakes we see is fence panels sitting directly on the damp soil. It’s a recipe for rot, no matter how well the wood has been treated. That's why we always recommend using gravel boards—whether you prefer the clean look of timber or the indestructible nature of concrete. By lifting the main panel off the ground, you're adding years to the life of your garden boundaries. We use pressure-treated, tanalised timber as standard, which means the preservative is forced deep into the wood rather than just brushed on the surface. It's these little details that save you money in the long run.
