Free Fencing Guide

Putting up a fence? Read our advice first!

Border Line
Probably the most important factor to think about when putting up a fence is the border line between your property and next door. Any doubt? Look at the deeds of your property or talk to the solicitor that dealt with your purchase.

Tree Roots
Are there any tree roots in the vicinity that could interfere with the fence or its post holes?

Type of Fence
Why are you building this fence? Is there a practical reason such as to provide privacy? If so go for a solid fence around two metres or more in height. If it’s to prevent children or pets wandering outside the confines of the garden, to stop wildlife wandering in, or to train plants around your border, then go for a lower level picket fence or ornamental trellis. Any experienced fencing company will provide help you choose the right fence for your needs and help you measure up correctly so that you buy exactly what you need.


Fence Position
Make sure you will be able to erect the fence where you wish; consider its use and how it will stand up to the weather conditions and finally, ensure that you opt for the right fixing option, whether that is permanent or moveable in the future should it be necessary. And take advice from your local fencing specialists like D&G Garden World who will only be too happy to help!
