Smart boundary solutions deserve careful consideration, especially with Morden's mix of post-war semis and modern developments. Panel fencing strikes that perfect balance between privacy, security, and maintaining good neighbourly relations.

Gardens across SM4 tell unique stories - from the compact plots near Morden tube station to those generous spaces backing onto Morden Park. Installing panel fencing here requires understanding local ground conditions, particularly the London clay that shifts with seasonal rainfall. Years of working in streets from Crown Lane to Hillcross Avenue have taught us exactly how deep those posts need to go.
Concrete gravel boards form the foundation, lifting timber panels clear of moisture-prone soil. Each panel slots precisely between posts set at exact 1.83m centres, creating clean lines that complement both Victorian terraces and newer builds. Weather-treated timber receives additional preservative coats before installation, essential given how quickly untreated wood deteriorates in our damp winters. Capping rails crown the structure, channelling rainwater away whilst adding that finishing touch.
Living in Morden means understanding community - something reflected in how we approach each project. Whether it's scheduling work around school runs or ensuring minimal disruption to neighbours in those tightly-packed St Helier estates, respect shapes every installation.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most three-bed semis in areas like Lower Morden require 15-20 panels, bringing costs to £1,200-£2,000 including posts and gravel boards. Corner plots or those backing onto allotments often need 25+ panels, pushing budgets towards £2,500-£3,000.
Absolutely - from properties along the A24 through to quiet cul-de-sacs near Morden Hall Park. SM4 forms our core patch, though we regularly work in neighbouring Morden Park and St Helier areas too.
Straightforward runs along clear boundaries typically wrap up within 2-3 days. Properties with mature shrubs to work around or sloping gardens towards Beverley Brook might stretch to 4-5 days.
Every installation carries decade-long coverage against structural failure - posts pulling loose, panels warping, or gravel boards cracking. Natural weathering and timber colour changes remain outside warranty scope, though proper maintenance keeps fences looking sharp well beyond ten years.
Stepped installation handles most slopes beautifully, with panels remaining horizontal whilst posts adjust to follow ground contours. Steeper drops might need raked panels or retaining elements, but there's always a solution that looks purposeful rather than awkward.
