Garden Fencing in Stockport, Stockport

Most homeowners we chat with aren't just looking for a quick fix; they want a fence that'll still be straight and true in a decade. That's why we're big fans of closeboard or feather edge fencing. It's a heavy-duty option where vertical boards overlap, creating a solid barrier that’s significantly tougher than your standard budget panels. If your garden is particularly prone to the wind—which is common for properties near the M60 corridor or the more open parts of Stockport—you might want to consider a 'Hit and Miss' design. This clever style allows the breeze to pass through alternating boards, taking the pressure off the posts so your fence doesn't act like a giant sail during a storm.

Have you ever noticed how some fences start rotting at the bottom after just a couple of seasons? It's usually because the timber is sitting directly on the damp Manchester soil. To stop this, we always recommend using gravel boards—either concrete or pressure-treated timber—at the base of your panels. These act as a protective buffer between the wood and the wet ground, significantly extending the life of your investment. We also give you the choice of sturdy concrete posts or traditional tanalised (pressure-treated) timber. While concrete is the 'set and forget' low-maintenance option, modern treated timber posts look fantastic and offer plenty of longevity when installed correctly with high-quality post mix.
