Frequently asked questions

Is this advice specific to my fence?

The guides are general practical advice. Every garden and boundary is different, so call or send us a photo and the area and we will look at your actual job.

Can you give legal advice about boundaries or planning?

No. We are fencers, not solicitors or planners. Where a guide mentions ownership or height limits it is general information, so check your deeds and your local council.

How do I ask about a job after reading a guide?

Call 07585 303903, message us on WhatsApp or use the form on this page with the fence location and what you need.
