Those sprawling gardens typical of KT18's Victorian properties deserve protection that doesn't compromise their character. Security fencing has evolved beyond industrial mesh – today's solutions incorporate everything from acoustic barriers for homes backing onto Ashley Road to wildlife-friendly designs that complement Epsom Common's natural borders. Many homeowners discover their insurance premiums drop significantly after proper perimeter installation.
Height restrictions vary between 2m for rear boundaries and 1m for front gardens facing public highways, though planning relaxations exist for corner plots common in Stoneleigh. Anti-climb features integrate discreetly through curved tops or close-board spacing, while CCTV mounting points can be pre-installed during construction. Ground conditions around chalk-heavy areas like Langley Vale require specific post-setting techniques to prevent movement over time.
Twenty years navigating Epsom's planning quirks means knowing exactly which designs sail through approval. Local installers understand why properties near the racecourse need acoustic considerations, or how Ashtead's tree preservation orders affect fence-line placement.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Standard 1.8m close-board security fencing runs £85-120 per linear metre installed. Premium steel palisade or composite systems range £140-200 per metre, while basic chain-link with concrete posts starts around £45 per metre for larger plots.
Absolutely – from the grand houses around Epsom Downs (KT18) through to modern developments in Stoneleigh (KT17) and established neighbourhoods throughout West Ewell (KT19). Regular work extends into neighbouring Ashtead and Banstead too.
Typical residential installations complete within 3-5 days once materials arrive. Larger commercial sites or properties requiring extensive groundwork might extend to 2 weeks. Planning approval, where needed, adds 6-8 weeks upfront.
All installations carry decade-long structural guarantees covering posts, panels and fixings against defects or premature failure. Galvanised steel components include 25-year anti-corrosion warranties, while powder-coated finishes guarantee 10 years colour-fastness.
Definitely – topping systems like rotating spikes or electric fencing often enhance existing boundaries without full replacement. Wall-mounted extensions add 40-60cm height while preserving original brickwork, particularly useful for period properties where demolition isn't viable.
