Garden Fencing in Urmston, Trafford

Let's be honest, the wind can really whip through Trafford, especially during those winter storms we seem to get every year. There's nothing worse than waking up to find your fence in your neighbour's garden. That's why we don't just slap up panels. We focus on the foundations. If you’re in a particularly breezy spot, we often recommend Hit and Miss fencing. It's a clever design where the boards are staggered, allowing the wind to pass through rather than acting like a sail and blowing over. We use rapid-setting post mix to ensure everything stays exactly where it should, even when the North West weather is at its worst.

Choosing the right style can be a bit overwhelming, can't it? If you're after something heavy-duty, you can't go wrong with Closeboard (or Feather Edge) fencing. It’s made of vertical overlapping boards that offer incredible strength and total privacy. If you’re on a tighter budget but still want a clean look, Waney Lap panels are a classic choice. For front gardens, we often install traditional Picket or Palisade fencing—it adds a lovely bit of kerb appeal without blocking the view of your home. Everything we supply is pressure treated—or tanalised—which means the timber is protected against rot and those pesky wood-boring insects right from the start.

Ever noticed how fences often rot from the bottom up? That’s usually because the timber is sitting directly on the damp soil. We always suggest using gravel boards—either concrete or treated timber—to act as a protective barrier. It keeps the main panel off the ground, significantly extending the life of your fence. When it comes to posts, we can fit traditional wooden ones for a seamless look or sturdy concrete posts if you want something that’s practically indestructible. If you have a post that’s already leaning but the rest of the fence is fine, we can even install concrete spurs to reinforce the base and save you the cost of a full replacement.

One of the biggest headaches with a new fence is what to do with the old, rotten one. Don't worry about hiring a skip or making endless trips to the tip. We're licensed waste carriers, so we'll take down your old fencing and dispose of it responsibly as part of the job. Our team handles everything from the initial site clearance to the final tidy-up. We pride ourselves on being tidy workers; we treat your garden with the same respect we’d treat our own. No mess, no fuss—just a beautiful, sturdy new boundary that’ll stand the test of time.
