Ernie runs the business from Stourport-on-Severn and takes on garden fencing across B66 and B67. We start by looking at the garden with you, how you use it and what is on the other side of the fence, and then suggest a style and height that suit the plot.
Privacy in a narrow garden
When neighbours are close, privacy is usually the first request. A solid closeboard run or a tight slatted screen blocks sight lines without feeling heavy if the height is right. We keep heights sensible and agreed with you, because in a narrow garden a fence that is too tall can cast shade and close the space in.
Posts are set in concrete and gravel boards fitted along the bottom, so the fence stays upright and the timber stays dry. If you want something softer on top, a trellis section lets climbers grow up and breaks the line of a plain fence.
Slatted screens for a modern look
Horizontal slatted fencing is a popular choice for small terraced and semi-detached gardens because it looks clean and modern. Boards are fixed with even gaps between concrete posts, so the lines run straight along the whole length of the garden.
A lighter stain can help a narrow plot feel wider, while a dark stain makes a good backdrop for green planting. We can work around a patio edge, a shed or a bed of shrubs, setting posts where they will not disturb what you have already put in.
Front fences and tidy finishes
For the front of a Smethwick house, a low picket fence marks the boundary and gives a neat frontage, with a small gate to the path if wanted. Whatever we fit, we sweep up, take away offcuts and leave the garden tidy. We also work in Oldbury, Bearwood, Handsworth and West Bromwich.
Questions about fencing in Smethwick
What fence suits a narrow Smethwick garden?
Often a slatted screen or a closeboard run at a sensible height works well. A lighter stain keeps the space open, and a trellis top adds interest without extra bulk. We will talk through the options when we see the garden.
Can you keep children and pets in with a new fence?
Yes. We set panels close between posts, fit gravel boards along the bottom and hang gates with a latch placed to suit your household, so there are no gaps for a small dog or child to get through.
Do you install garden fencing in B66 and B67?
Yes, we cover Smethwick across B66 and B67. We are based in Stourport-on-Severn. Send us your road and a few details about the garden, and we will get back to you to arrange a visit.
