BESPOKE FENCING IN WICKFORD
Fencing Built Around Your Garden, Not Off the Shelf
Custom fence construction — or bespoke, made-to-measure fencing as we usually call it — is fencing designed and built around the specific shape of your garden. Where a standard panel fence struggles with a curved boundary, a change in level or an awkward angle, bespoke fencing is constructed on site to follow the line exactly.
We build made-to-measure fencing using feather-edge timber boards, horizontal rails and secure posts, so the fence conforms to the boundary rather than forcing the garden to fit a fixed panel size. This gives a continuous, private boundary with no gaps, regardless of the ground.
Whether your garden is flat, sloping, stepped or irregular, bespoke fence construction produces a boundary that sits well and looks intentional. On a free site visit we assess the garden, talk through the options and provide a clear written quotation.
WHAT BESPOKE FENCING MEANS
What Is Custom Fence Construction?
Custom fence construction means fencing that is made to measure for your specific boundary. Rather than buying pre-made panels of a fixed size, the fencing is built on site — boards are cut and fixed individually to rails, so the fence follows the exact line of the garden.
This approach differs from panel fencing in two ways. First, the fence adapts to sloping or uneven ground without stepping or gaps. Second, the construction is continuous — there are no panel joints to weaken over time. Each board is fixed directly to the rails, giving a stronger, more private boundary.
Bespoke fencing is suitable for timber closeboard construction, and can be paired with timber or concrete posts and timber or concrete gravel boards depending on the ground and your preferences.
SUITABILITY
When Bespoke Fence Construction Is a Good Choice
FENCING OPTIONS
Bespoke Fencing Options
Made-to-measure fencing can be configured in several ways. The right combination depends on the boundary shape, ground conditions and how the garden is used.
Timber Posts
Pressure-treated timber posts set in concrete, matched to the feather-edge boards for a consistent timber appearance along the run.
Concrete Posts
Concrete posts that will not rot at ground level, suited to boundaries exposed to damp ground or where a longer-lasting post is preferred.
Timber Gravel Boards
Timber gravel boards keep the feather-edge boards clear of soil and reduce moisture contact at the base of the fence.
Concrete Gravel Boards
Concrete gravel boards that will not decay, providing a solid, long-lasting base for the fencing above.
Built on Site
Boards fixed individually to rails on site, allowing the fence to follow curves, slopes and angles without gaps or stepping.
Gate Integration
Bespoke gates can be built into the fence line to match the construction, suited to non-standard openings.
