Fencing Bedfordshire

In most back gardens, you can have a fence up to 2 metres high without planning permission. For front gardens, the limit is usually 1 metre. We’re familiar with local Bedfordshire regulations and will ensure your fence meets all requirements.

It really depends on your priorities. For maximum privacy, close board fencing is an excellent choice and one of our most popular installations. If you have a lovely view you’d like to keep, post and rail fencing works beautifully, especially in rural settings. Let’s speak about your needs and find the best fit for your space.

For maximum security, we would recommend palisade or mesh fencing. Palisade is designed to deter intruders with its tough, intimidating structure, while mesh fencing is incredibly strong and difficult to climb. We can assess your site and recommend the most suitable solution.

If the fence is entirely on your property, you don’t need permission. That said, informing your neighbour in advance can help avoid misunderstandings and make the process smoother.

Concrete posts are extremely strong, weather-resistant, and long-lasting, making them a popular option. Timber posts, however, give a more natural look for a garden setting. We use pressure-treated wood for added durability, typically lasting 15–20 years or more with the right care.

Larch lap panel fencing is a cost-effective choice that provides good privacy without the higher cost of decorative or heavy-duty styles. Using timber posts instead of concrete can also reduce expenses. We’re happy to provide a free quote with options to suit your budget.

Absolutely. Painting can refresh your garden instantly. We recommend letting a new fence settle for one season to allow the pressure treatment to fully cure, which helps achieve an even finish. Always use exterior wood paint for the best results.
