Those narrow passages between Putney's Victorian terraces demand fencing that maximises every inch. Closeboard panels offer the perfect blend of privacy and durability, standing strong against the occasional Thames-side breeze.

Space comes at a premium in SW15, particularly in those charming cottages near Putney Heath. Closeboard fencing creates solid boundaries without eating into precious garden footage. The overlapping featherboard design naturally sheds rainwater, essential given our position between the river and the heath. Many properties here feature awkward slopes and uneven ground levels that standard panel fencing simply can't handle.
Construction begins with concrete posts set deep into the London clay that underlies much of Putney. Gravel boards protect the timber from ground moisture, preventing the rot that plagues lesser installations. Each featherboard overlaps its neighbour by precisely 25mm, creating a windproof barrier. The resulting structure flexes slightly in strong winds rather than fighting them - crucial for exposed gardens near Roehampton Lane.
Twenty years of working between Barnes Common and Wandsworth Park teaches you which timber suppliers deliver boards that won't warp after one wet winter. Local knowledge matters when you're navigating the access challenges of Putney's mix of mansion blocks and period conversions.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Typical SW15 gardens range from compact courtyards to substantial plots, with closeboard installations starting around £85-120 per linear metre including materials and labour. Corner plots near Putney Bridge often require 40-60 metres total.
Absolutely - from the bustling High Street to the leafy lanes around Putney Heath, including all of SW15. Regular projects stretch from Barnes boundary to the Roehampton estates.
Most Putney properties see completion within 2-4 days, though those tricky Victorian side returns sometimes add an extra morning. Weather permitting, naturally.
Every installation carries decade-long coverage against structural failure, post movement, and board separation. The pressure-treated timber resists fungal attack for years beyond standard panels.
Stepped installation follows your garden's natural contours perfectly. Unlike rigid panels, closeboard adapts to slopes without leaving gaps underneath - ideal for those hillside properties overlooking the Thames.
