We design, supply and install fencing that stands up to family life and the British weather, with options to match both front gardens and long rear runs. Homeowners near Downham Fields and around Grove Park choose us for neat lines, solid posts and gates that close properly. Expect a professional finish and minimal disruption from start to final tidy-up.
Downham’s established residential estate includes 1920s cottage estates, 1930s semis and post-war housing, each with different boundary layouts and access. We regularly work with shared side passages, long garden fences and mixed old-and-new sections where a consistent look matters. Whether you want extra privacy between neighbours or a smarter frontage, our solutions are tailored to the property style and plot shape. We also advise on height, sightlines and child/pet safety.
We start with a site visit to check levels, ground conditions and any weak points in existing posts and panels. You’ll receive clear options on materials, finishes and upgrades such as gravel boards, concrete posts or acoustic fencing where noise is a concern. Our team works to a planned schedule, keeps pathways clear, and removes waste responsibly. Local homeowners trust us because we communicate well, turn up when we say we will, and stand behind our work.
As fencing contractors in London Borough of Lewisham, we’re used to Downham’s mixed access—some plots have narrow side returns and limited parking. We plan deliveries and waste removal to keep disruption down, especially near schools and busy routes by Bonus Pastor Catholic College. Ground can vary from firm to softer patches after wet weather, so we choose the right post depth and fixings. We also help you stay aligned with boundary expectations common across Catford and Bellingham streets.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs in Downham vary by fence type, height, access and how much old fencing needs removing. As a guide, budget around £90–£160 per metre for panel fencing, and roughly £120–£220 per metre for close board fencing, installed. Metal fencing and acoustic systems are typically higher. Gates often add £250–£900+ depending on size and ironmongery. We provide a written estimate after a site visit.
Most straightforward garden fence replacements take 1–2 days, while longer runs or multiple boundaries may take 3–5 days. Repairs can often be completed within a few hours, depending on whether posts need resetting. Timescales are influenced by access (narrow side paths are slower), ground conditions, the number of corners and gates, and whether we’re fitting concrete posts or acoustic fencing. We confirm a schedule before work begins.
In many cases, garden fencing is permitted development, but there are limits—especially for front boundary heights and fences next to highways or footpaths. Corner plots and visibility splays can also affect what’s acceptable. If your property is subject to specific restrictions, we’ll flag this during the survey. We can advise on typical rules in the London Borough of Lewisham and help you choose a compliant height and design.
Yes. Our workmanship is covered by a 10-year warranty for peace of mind. This covers installation-related issues such as posts working loose, fixings failing prematurely, or gates dropping due to fitting. Natural movement in timber, storm damage, and accidental impact aren’t usually covered, but we’re always happy to inspect and advise. We also use quality materials and recommend treatments and maintenance to extend lifespan.
We install close board fencing for privacy, panel fencing for a clean, cost-effective boundary, and picket fencing for front gardens. Trellis toppers are popular for extra height with a lighter look, while metal fencing suits modern or low-maintenance frontages. For noise-sensitive spots, we can specify acoustic fencing. We’ll help you choose post types (timber or concrete), gravel boards, finishes, and a gate style that matches your property.
