Fencing in Bournemouth

Are you considering having fencing installed in Bournemouth? Using the Local Quotes service you'll be able to compare as many as 4 fencing companies to get the very best deal available for the job you want.

Fencing is extremely important for all houses whether it is the front or back garden. From maintenance work to a complete installation of new fencing, employing a respected contractor is highly recommended to get the very best price available.

Fences work as a border to our households and with an installation you'll increase protection to your property preventing easy access to your back garden. Back garden fences are traditionally close to 6 feet high, which right away makes it more difficult for intruders to gain entry.

Decorative fencing or wooden picket fencing are often most appropriate for the front garden, where security isn't as paramount. Instead, you're more likely to select a front garden fence specifically for design and also to add something different.

For whatever style of fencing you're wanting to have installed, be sure you make use of our totally free and no obligation service to get the best deal available in Bournemouth.

FAQs

Can I attach something to my neighbour’s fence?

There are a number of reasons why disputes can arise between neighbours – all of which can be quite frustrating and challenging. In some cases, this can even cause serious friction and lead to an all-out war. When it comes to the topic of fencing, one of the most common questions that arises is whether or not you can attach something to your neighbour’s fence. If you’re having the same concern, then you’ve come to the right place. In this post, we’re going to give you a good insight into this to help you make informed decisions moving forward. Let’s take a look!

 

The short and simple answer to this question is no, you can’t attach anything to your neighbour’s fence. If your neighbour owns the fence and you’ve not obtained any permission to do so, then you’re not allowed to attach anything to the fence. Otherwise, you can get into serious trouble with your neighbour as well as the law. If you want to attach something or have the wall on your side painted using another colour, then there’s the need to get a permission from the owner. And while doing so, make sure you’re provided with a written permission so as to avoid problems later in the future.

 

Another question that mostly arises is what if your neighbour declines your request, is there anything you can do about it? Well, the answer to this is no, there’s nothing you can do about it unless you’re able to convince your neighbour otherwise. And you should know starting a neighbour war or being spiteful can only make matters worse for you.

Do I need planning permission for fences?

Not if they are under 1 metre high if next to a road or 2 metres high elsewhere. It’s always recommended to check with your neighbours and the local authority if you are unsure. Other restrictions may apply, for example if a fence might impact driver visibility on nearby roads.

What types of garden fencing are available?

There are quite a few different types of garden fencing that are readily available, so you’ll have plenty to choose from. If you’ve got a strict budget, waney edge panel fencing is a good option. It’s made up of horizontal wood strips and is generally the cheapest type of fencing. Another good option is closed feather-edge panels. These are a really strong type of fence, made up of concrete posts and panels of vertical strips of wood.You can also get more decorative types of fencing with combinations of vertical and horizontal wood strips.

How close can I build to my neighbour’s fence?

As a home or property owner, you’re generally allowed to build next to your neighbour’s fence as long as it’s on your own side of the property. With that in mind, there are certain laws that regulate how close a fence can be built to buildings on the same lot or neighbouring lots. In addition, there are also local bylaws that provide limitations on the placements as well as height of fences so as to address safety hazards. In this post, we’re going to give you a good insight into how close you can build to your neighbour. Let’s take a look!

 

In general, if the fence is in your boundary then you’re allowed to build a 2-metre high brick or wooden fence or wall. However, this may differ depending on your location in the UK. As a result, you may want to reach out to your municipality’s building department in order to determine what these rules and limitations are in your area. In the events whereby there are no such restrictions but you’re still concerned, you can try informing your neighbour what your concerns are. However, if they’re not receptive there are some steps you can take to ensure your plans go as smoothly as possible. These steps include the following:

  • Ensure to leave sufficient space for both the posts and footings
  • Stagger your fence posts in order to make sure you’re not digging your neighbour’s
  • Consider using concrete posts as they’re much stronger and will last a lot longer
  • Use kickers or plinths for raised gardens and flower beds
  • Make use of concrete plinths as they won’t rot over time like a wooden fence.
