Those chalk downs around Banstead create unique challenges for property boundaries. Closeboard fencing adapts brilliantly to uneven terrain, providing privacy without compromising on the character of your SM7 home.

Victorian properties near Banstead High Street often sit on plots with significant level changes. Traditional closeboard construction handles these slopes naturally, with vertical feather-edge boards overlapping to follow your garden's contours. The result? A solid boundary that doesn't require extensive groundwork or unsightly stepped panels.
Each board gets individually fixed to horizontal rails, creating exceptional wind resistance - crucial when those autumn storms sweep across Epsom Downs. Pressure-treated timber resists moisture penetration, while the overlapping design allows natural expansion and contraction. This flexibility prevents the warping and splitting that plagues cheaper panel systems, particularly important given Banstead's clay-heavy soil that shifts seasonally.
Twenty years fitting fences between Nork's bungalows and Tadworth's newer developments teaches you what works locally. Understanding how Surrey clay behaves, knowing which timber suppliers deliver properly seasoned wood - these details matter when you're investing in your property's boundaries.
