Streatham's mix of period homes and newer developments creates interesting fencing challenges. Victorian terraces along Streatham High Road often share awkward boundary lines, whilst properties backing onto the railway need robust screening. Every garden from Furzedown to Streatham Hill has its quirks - sloping plots, mature trees, and those tricky shared alleyways between houses.
Modern panel systems have revolutionised garden boundaries. Pressure-treated timber withstands decades of British weather, while clever post designs accommodate Streatham's notorious London clay movement. Installation depth matters here - shallow foundations crack when clay shrinks in summer. Smart installers know to dig deeper, use proper concrete mixes, and leave expansion gaps that prevent warping.
Twenty years fitting fences between Streatham Common and Tooting means understanding local soil conditions inside out. Regular customers recommend neighbours because results speak louder than advertisements.

Most terraced properties in SW16 run 25-30 metres of boundary fencing, typically £1,800-£2,500 including removal of old panels. Corner plots or houses near Streatham Common station often need 40+ metres, pushing costs towards £3,000-£3,500.
Absolutely - from Streatham Hill down through SW2 to Furzedown, including all those streets off Mitcham Lane. Regular work happens around Streatham Common, particularly those Edwardian properties needing discreet modern boundaries.
Weather permitting, most Streatham gardens see completion within 3-5 days of starting. Larger boundaries or complicated access might stretch to a week, especially navigating those narrow Victorian side returns.
Every installation carries decade-long protection against rot, warping, or structural failure. Should issues arise within ten years, replacement happens at no charge - though properly installed panels in Streatham typically outlast their warranty considerably.
Streatham's hillside location means stepped installations are common. Panels follow ground contours using gravel boards and adjusted post heights, creating level runs that look professional whilst managing dramatic slopes effectively.
