Wooden Fencing York


Wooden fencing is probably the most popular available. It is a cheap and versatile material that is still durable and good looking. Wooden fences can come in different styles, from wooden panels to posts and bars. Our wooden panel fences are particularly popular for homes and gardens. These are tall and provide a substantial barrier, making them perfect for creating an island of tranquillity in any town or city. Thanks to their height, they can also provide excellent privacy and security too. Our wooden fences are treated to ensure they are resistant to mould, rot and decay, and so you can be confident that they will last for years to come. When installed with a concrete post and gravel board base this combination provides maximum protection and robustness to you wooden panels

Plastic Fencing | Composite Fencing | PVC Fencing


While wooden fencing is highly popular, sometimes a wooden fence panel with concrete posts just isn’t what you'd picture for your garden. Thankfully we also have a selection of other fence types and materials that can suit anyone. Our selection covers a range of materials, including metal, plastic and composite fencing. Plastic fencing is also known as PVC fencing or composite fencing. There are subtle differences between them regarding the % of materials used to make them up but they all are growing in popularity. Like wood, composite fencing is available in a variety of styles, from panels, boards to picket fencing and come with both composite and metal posts to provide a complete system. PVC picket fencing is a popular choice for pool fences, or to surround a pond. Regardless of the material you choose, our professional team will be able to install it with ease and will leave you with a great looking fence, which requires virtually no maintenance to stay looking fantastic for many years to come.

Metal Fencing


If you're looking for decorative garden fencing then a wrought iron fence may be your best option. Many different designs and styles are available from spear top, to ball top. As metal railing allows for greater visibility a small metal fence is a great way of marking your front garden boundary. A front garden metal railing fence enables you to show off your plants and shrubs and maintain full front door visibility which is a security benefit. High metal fencing is ideal for security fencing.

Concrete Fencing


This is a popular choice for landlords and for boundaries running along public footpaths. Fitting a number of gravel boards into concrete posts provides a very strong, robust and maintenance free fence solution. The main options in terms of finish are either smooth faced or rock faced and con be either double of single sided.

Gates


When our customers get fences installed, we usually find that they are interested in gates as well. Like fences, we have an extensive range of gates available. These also come in a variety of materials and styles. We will be able to measure and fit a gate wherever it is needed, whether it is a within a garden or across a driveway. We will ask if you want a gate installed with your fences, where appropriate, and we can also incorporate them into existing fences and walls. Thanks to the variety we have, no fence will look out of place.

Fence Removal


Redecorating and reshaping a garden is a labour-intensive task. With their size and weight, fences can prove to be particularly challenging to remove. To add to that, they will often have foundations making this task even harder. As well as being able to install fences and gates, we are also capable of removing them too. Our experienced team will be able to remove and dispose of any fence you need to get rid of. They can also help to remove any fence foundations and the surrounding ground to ensure that your garden is in the best possible condition for you to renovate it.

Wooden Fencing Explained


With such a wide variety of wooden fence panel styles to choose from we've put together a small guide below to help explain some of the names and options available:

Lap Panel Fencing | Overlap Fencing
Larch Lap Panel Fencing | Traditional Fence Panels


Although this type of fence panel has several names it is one of the UK’s most popular mainly due to its budget price as the cheapest fencing option. It is made up of horizontal slats and framed with battens including a vertical batten or battens in the middle of the board to give extra support. As this is the cheapest fence panel it is not the most robust and is therefore if most susceptible to damage in strong wind.

Lap wooden fence panels

Featherboard Fencing | Closeboard Fencing


This wooden fence panel is the most popular due to its cost and that it is more robust and sturdy than lap panel fencing. The panels are constructed using tapered boards which are slightly overlapped over each other and onto the framework.

Picket Fencing


This style of fencing is typically for decoration and boundary marking in front gardens and for sectioning areas in back gardens such as pools, ponds or patio areas. As well as wooden picket fencing PVC picket fencing is growing massively in popularity due to its low maintenance requirements and availability in a number of colours with white PVC picket fencing being the most popular.

Slatted Fence Panels


If you are looking for fencing where privacy is less of a consideration slatted fence panels are a good option. As well as dividing fences they are often used to section off different parts of a garden and are relatively good for creeping plants to work themselves through the panel gaps.

Hit and Miss Fencing


​This wooden fence panel is created by placing alternate smooth horizontal boards to both sides of the main panel and supporting battens. As a result the panel looks the same from both sides. This can be done the other way round too where alternating boards are place vertically to supporting beams but is less common.

Woven Fence Panels | Horizontal Weave Fencing


Using a strong frame, treated horizontal wood is weaved in between the vertical battens. The end result is a strong fence panel which looks the same from both sides with the vertical battens providing part of the aesthetic appeal of the panel.

Fence Panel Tops


The top of your fence needn't be solid and flat. Wave finishes are available in a variety of styles including a trellis to the top one or two feet of your fence. Also a number of composite and metal wooden fence tops are available which provide additional protection to the top of your fence which is subject to the most wear and tear from the elements and bird life. These tops are a great addition to keep the top of your fence in great condition.

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • Which is the best garden fencing?

    Within composite fencing, there can be a large spread of prices as well as designs with some of the most costly being many times more than wood. However, composite panels fitted come without the maintenance demands so the cost you put on that will depend on you.  If you have existing concrete posts utilising composite fencing panels designed for this post option can be a sensible choice if your posts are in good condition but your wooden panels are not. Cheap dip treated fencing is generally a false economy as they will need treating on a frequent basis in order to last. So if you are on a budget but want good looking long-lasting fencing concrete posts, gravel boards with a pressure treated panel which you like the design style will be a sound choice.

  • Are composite and UPVC fencing the same?

    Not exactly - UPVC fencing will be 100% made of plastic whereas composite fencing will be made up of more than one material and the case of fencing and decking this be wood with plastic. However, the wood content will be often only be a few %. Most of the plastics used in UPVC and composite fencing is also from recycled sources so both are a good environmental option.

  • How often should I treat my wooden fence panels?

    If you went for a cheap dip-treated wooden fence then you will need to treat almost every year if you want to try to get your fence to last about 10 years. If you chose pressure-treated panels you could get away with only applying a sealing coat once every 3-5 years.

  • What is the most popular garden fence?

    Featheredged or Closed board panels, which are sometimes also called vertical lap fence panels are by far and away the most popular. These are good all-rounders in terms of price and strength as long as you choose a pressure treated finish.

    Each year we see more and more requests for composite fencing and the lower end Ceo fencing provides a competitive alternative to more intricate wooden fence panels designs. In terms of other popular wooden designs, slatted garden fence panels are also much more popular in recent seasons - both the single slat and double slatted versions. The double slatted version is also known as hit and miss fencing.
