Fence installers in Leeds
A fence is only as good as its posts, and as experienced groundworkers we know how to set them properly. That's what keeps a fence straight through years of wind and wet weather.
Fencing-only jobs are welcome. Plenty of our fencing work is a straight replacement of a tired or storm-damaged fence, and you don't need to be having anything else done to book us. If you are having a new patio laid, it often makes sense to replace the fence at the same time so the whole garden looks new.
A good fence gives you privacy, keeps children and pets in, and smartens up the whole property. We fit a range of designs and materials, can match fencing to composite decking, fit side gates to finish the boundary, and take away and dispose of old panels.

Types of garden fencing
Timber is still the most popular choice in Leeds gardens, and there are plenty of variations, including whether panels go onto timber posts or concrete posts with gravel boards. These are the styles we fit most:
Featheredge closeboard
Overlapping vertical boards nailed to horizontal rails. Strong, solid and good value, which is why it remains the most popular fence we fit. Works well with a matching side gate.
Hit and miss
Boards fixed on alternate sides of the rails, so the fence looks good from both sides and lets some light and air through while still giving privacy.
Picket
Lower, open fencing for front gardens and borders, in pointed or flat-top styles.
Composite and uPVC
Low-maintenance non-timber panels that never need painting. See our composite fencing page for the full range.
Composite versus uPVC fencing
Composite and plastic fencing are often talked about as the same thing, but they aren't. Composite is made from a mix of wood fibre and plastic. uPVC fencing is 100% plastic. Both offer the same low-maintenance benefits, and prices and colours vary from one manufacturer to another.
Either can often be fitted into your existing concrete posts, which helps keep the cost down. We're happy to talk through the options and combinations at the survey.
What affects the cost of a new fence?
Ground conditions make the biggest difference. Where post holes are easy to dig, a fence goes up quickly. Where there's old concrete, rubble or tree roots below the surface, clearing a solid footing for each post takes longer.
Reusing sound concrete posts saves money, and so does keeping to standard panel sizes. Where posts do need replacing, we flag it clearly in the quote rather than as a surprise once work has started.
Garden fencing questions answered
Do you take on fencing-only jobs?
Yes. A fence on its own is fine, whether it's a few damaged panels or a whole boundary. We also fit fencing as part of bigger garden projects.
What is your most popular wooden fence?
Featheredge, mainly because of cost. Hit and miss and more contemporary designs are far more popular than they were ten years ago, as people look for a more stylish finish across the whole garden.
Would you recommend composite fencing?
If the budget allows, yes. It looks good and keeps looking good for years with minimal effort. See our composite fencing page for the options.
Will you take the old fence away?
Yes. We can remove and dispose of old panels and posts as part of the job.
How high can a garden fence be without planning permission?
Generally 2 metres, dropping to 1 metre next to a road used by vehicles, including its footpath. Trellis on top counts towards the height.
