FENCE INSTALLATION IN WICKFORD
A Complete Fencing System, Properly Installed
Fence installation covers the full process of putting up a new residential fence — setting posts in concrete, fitting gravel boards at the base, installing panels or boards, and integrating gates where needed. It is not just about dropping panels between posts; a properly installed fence starts from the ground up.
We install fencing with either timber or concrete posts, paired with timber or concrete gravel boards. The choice depends on the ground, the boundary and how long you want the fence to stand. On a free site visit we talk through the options that suit your property and give you a clear, written quotation.
Whether the boundary is a straight rear garden line or a more complex run with changes in level, the installation is planned to suit the garden. The result is a secure, private fence that stands properly and looks right.
WHAT INSTALLATION INVOLVES
What Does Fence Installation Include?
Fence installation is the complete process of building a new fence from the ground up. It starts with setting posts at the correct depth in concrete, then fitting gravel boards to keep the fencing clear of soil, and finally installing the panels or boards that form the visible boundary.
A full installation also includes setting out the boundary line, checking levels, cutting boards to fit where the ground changes, and ensuring the fence is secure and aligned. Where a gate is needed, the installation includes fitting the gate posts, hinges and latch as part of the same run.
The difference between a proper installation and simply fitting panels is in the preparation. Posts set at the right depth in concrete, gravel boards fitted correctly, and boards or panels aligned to the boundary all contribute to a fence that stands well and lasts.

FENCING OPTIONS
Fence Installation Options
There are genuine choices within a fence installation. The right combination depends on the boundary, the ground and how the garden is used.
Timber Posts
Pressure-treated timber posts set in concrete, a traditional choice that matches timber panels and boards.
Concrete Posts
Concrete posts that will not rot at ground level and generally last longer than timber alternatives.
Timber Gravel Boards
Timber gravel boards keeping the fence clear of soil, matched to timber posts for a consistent look.
Concrete Gravel Boards
Concrete gravel boards that will not decay, providing a solid base often paired with concrete posts.
Panels or Closeboard
Ready-made fence panels for straight boundaries, or closeboard built on site for sloping and uneven ground.
Gate Integration
Gates fitted as part of the installation, with posts, hinges and latches matched to the fencing.
