Fencing in Chelmsford

In search of wood fencing installers in Chelmsford? Our wood fence fitters in Chelmsford will give you the best quotations to have wood fencing installed.

Fencing is required both for domestic and industrial properties for many different reasons. It works as a border for home gardens and private land, becoming a measure of privacy as well as to keep people and animals in or out.

Benefits of wooden fencing include added house security and aesthetic appeal. With a fence in place, it becomes tougher for intruders to gain access to your house and garden. Make sure to pick a design that will look great too, especially if for house purposes.

We're able to offer you as many as four wooden fencing contractors locally, who will give quotations for the work you need carried out. You'll be given a house visit from specialists in Chelmsford who will help you to select the right design and style for your home before finishing the installation.

The fitting of a wood fence will take less than one day to finish, dependant upon the size of area you'd like guarded.

Average Wooden fencing cost in Chelmsford

The regular cost of a new or replacement fence is approximately £20-£45 per foot, not including removing your existing fence which could cost an extra £5-10 per foot.

It will also differ among regions, so it's best to get a few quotes to see what the best price is in your area.

    FAQs

    Do I need to dispose of the old fencing myself?

    Most responsible contractors will dispose of the old fencing via an approved commercial waste site. Do check that the cost of taking rubbish away is included in the quotes you receive, otherwise you might find you get stung when it comes to paying for the work.

    What do I need to do to maintain my fence?

    Properly erected fences shouldn’t require a great deal of maintenance. Any rotting boards can usually be replaced without replacing the whole panel. Timber fencing should be stained every 2-3 years. General maintenance is something you can carry out yourself, however, larger works may need a qualified professional to come in.

    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.
    Do I need to tell my neighbours if I’m going to replace my fence?

    It’s a good idea to talk to your neighbours before you start any work to avoid confusion along the way. But if the fence is definitely your responsibility and on your property, there’s no legal obligation to notify them. It’s also a myth that you need to erect a fence with the flush side without posts facing your neighbour’s property.
