Privacy boundaries
A calmer garden edge
Closeboard and compatible panel systems can provide a substantial screen. Height, board arrangement and gaps at the ground should be agreed with the surroundings and intended use in mind.

Your garden, considered
Look beyond the fence panel
A well-planned boundary balances privacy with the feel of the garden. In Beckenham, we help homeowners compare closeboard fencing, panel replacements, decorative screening and gates, then develop a specification that accounts for the whole fence line.
A long run, a corner beside a patio and a side passage all place different demands on the design. We look at levels, existing trees and planting, access for materials and how you want each part of the garden to work. Matching every section is not always as useful as choosing the right treatment for each space.
If the existing fence is damaged, we will discuss whether parts can sensibly be retained. New boards need reliable supports, and a repaired gate needs sound posts. Our recommendation starts with the condition of what is there, rather than automatically replacing everything.

Materials & possibilities
Three ways to frame your outdoor space
Bring photos of styles you like, but also tell us what you need the fence to do. A seating screen, pet boundary and front garden fence may call for different details.
Follow the ground without losing the line
Where a boundary changes level, the top line and the bottom gaps need deliberate planning. We can discuss stepped sections, board arrangements and how gravel boards meet the ground. If soil is being held back, that is a separate retaining requirement—not a job to assume a standard fence can do. We also consider existing roots and features before agreeing where new post foundations will go.
From first ideas to finishing touches

Fencing in Beckenham: your questions
Still deciding? Tell us about your garden and we can talk through the next step.
Read our warranty termsCan you install fencing along a sloping garden?
We can discuss an arrangement for a boundary that changes level. The choice between stepped sections and other board layouts depends on the slope and selected system. The survey should also identify any ground-retaining work that needs to be dealt with separately.
Is slatted fencing completely private?
Not necessarily. Visibility depends on the spacing, angle of view and whether the design has a backing or boards on both sides. Tell us if privacy is the main priority so the specification reflects that, rather than choosing only from a photograph.
Can I keep some of my existing fence?
Potentially. We inspect the remaining panels, rails, posts and foundations before proposing a partial replacement. It may be practical to retain sound sections, though new timber can differ in colour and appearance from older weathered materials.
Can you add a gate for garden access?
Yes, gates can be discussed with a new fence or as a replacement. Let us know what needs to pass through the opening, such as bins, a mower or bikes. We then consider width, hinges, latch, ground clearance and suitable gate supports.
Will the fence be suitable for a dog?
Tell us about your pet and the areas that need enclosing. We can discuss height, bottom gaps and gate latches, but no generic design can guarantee containment for every animal. The agreed layout needs to suit your household and the particular garden.
How should I care for new timber fencing?
Keep vegetation from putting pressure on the fence, avoid piling soil against timber and check gate hardware periodically. Follow the treatment instructions for the chosen product. We will explain care requirements and the workmanship warranty terms that apply to your quote.
