Northfield is a large suburb on the south side of Birmingham, with a mix of older semi-detached homes, terraces and post-war estates. Gardens here are often compact and many back directly onto neighbours, so fence jobs tend to be about getting a straight, tidy run in a tight space and agreeing the boundary with the people next door.
Tight gardens and shared boundaries
Before replacing a boundary in Northfield, it is worth checking who owns it. Your deeds may say, and a quick word with the neighbours before we start saves problems later. We work to the existing line, measure each run and make sure the new panels sit neatly against sheds, walls and the corners of the house.
Access and clearing up
Many Northfield houses have narrow side passages, so the old panels often have to come out and the new ones go in by hand. We plan for that when we quote. The old fence is taken away when we finish, and if you only need a few panels or a post replaced you can read about our repair or replace guidance first.
What every job includes
- Measuring the boundary and agreeing the style and height
- Taking out the old fence and clearing it away
- Concrete posts and gravel boards under every run
- Gates hung on solid posts to match
Questions about Northfield
Do you cover all of Northfield?
We cover Northfield and the B31 postcode, along with nearby Kings Norton and Longbridge. Send us your postcode if you want to check.
Can you get panels down a narrow side passage?
Yes. We carry them through by hand where there is no vehicle access, and allow for that in the quote.
Do I need to speak to my neighbours first?
It is a good idea. Boundary ownership varies from house to house, so check your deeds and let the neighbours know before we start.
