Local Manchester Timber Fence Contractors
A fence takes a beating from Manchester wind and rain, and most failures start below ground: posts set too shallow, footings that hold water, or panels sitting on wet soil. We fit timber fencing across Greater Manchester with the groundwork done properly, so the line stays straight and the posts stay firm.
We use pressure-treated timber and give you a choice of timber or concrete posts, with gravel boards (also called kick boards) to keep the panels off the ground. Gates can be hung to match.
We're a local, family-run team based in Failsworth, and the quote visit is free.

What Styles of Fencing are Available in Manchester?
The right style depends on how much privacy you want, how exposed the garden is and the look you're after. These are the timber options we're asked about most.
Traditional Fence Panels
Ready-made timber panels slotted between posts. A quick, tidy way to enclose a garden, and a single damaged panel is easy to replace later.
Closeboard Fencing
Overlapping vertical boards fixed to rails on site. Heavier and stronger than most panels, and a good choice for exposed boundaries.
Slatted and Contemporary Fencing
Horizontal boards with small gaps for a modern look that still lets some light and air through.
Bespoke Designs
Different heights, widths and board thicknesses to suit a sloping garden, an awkward boundary or a particular style.
Timber Gates
Gates hung on solid posts to match the new fence, for side access or the garden path.
Planning the Right Fence for Your Boundary
Free Fencing & Landscaping Design Ideas
At the free quote visit we look at the whole boundary, not just the panels: slopes, existing walls, trees and roots, and where gates need to go. On a sloping garden we'll explain how the panels can be stepped so each one sits level.
If the fence is part of a bigger change, we can suggest how it ties in with a new patio, lawn or planting, so the garden comes together as one scheme.

- Ground conditions, slopes and access to the boundary
How we carry out the work
How We Install a Timber Fence
No pressure at any stage, and nothing is booked until you have the price in writing.
Measure and Mark Out
We measure the run, agree the line with you and mark the post positions so panels fit evenly, without a narrow cut panel at the end.
Clear the Old Fence
Old panels and posts come out, along with old concrete where it's in the way, and the waste is taken away.
Set the Posts
Holes are dug to a good depth and posts are set plumb in concrete, shaped at the top so water runs off rather than pooling around the timber.
Fit Boards, Panels and Gates
Gravel boards go in first, then the panels or boards, checked for level along the run. Gates are hung last and adjusted to swing and latch cleanly.
