WOODEN FENCING IN WICKFORD
Timber Fencing Built for Your Garden
Wooden fencing installation gives Wickford homeowners a natural, private boundary using pressure-treated timber. Whether you prefer closeboard fencing built on site or ready-made timber panels between posts, the fencing is planned to suit the garden and boundary line.
We install timber fencing with either timber or concrete posts. Timber posts give a consistent look along the run, while concrete posts will not rot at ground level and generally last longer. Gravel boards at the base keep the timber clear of soil and moisture.
On a free site visit we assess the garden, talk through the options — closeboard or panels, timber or concrete posts, timber or concrete gravel boards — and provide a clear written quotation.
TIMBER FENCING EXPLAINED
What Does Wooden Fencing Installation Include?
Wooden fencing installation covers the full process of putting up a new timber fence. It includes setting posts in concrete, fitting gravel boards at the base, and installing either closeboard boards built on site or ready-made timber panels between the posts.
Pressure-treated timber is used for the posts, rails, boards and panels. The treatment helps protect the timber from rot and insect attack, giving the fence a longer life. Timber can be paired with concrete posts and gravel boards where ground conditions make timber posts less suitable.
The installation also includes setting out the boundary, checking levels, cutting boards to fit changes in ground level, and ensuring the fence is secure and aligned. Gates can be integrated into the fence line using matching timber construction.

SUITABILITY
When Wooden Fencing Is a Good Choice
FENCING OPTIONS
Wooden Fencing Options
There are genuine choices within timber fencing. The right combination depends on the boundary, the ground and how the garden is used.
Closeboard Built on Site
Feather-edge boards fixed individually to rails, following the boundary line and adjusting to changes in level.
Timber Panels
Ready-made timber panels dropped between posts for straight, level boundaries.
Timber Posts
Pressure-treated timber posts set in concrete, matched to the timber fencing for a consistent look.
Concrete Posts
Concrete posts that will not rot at ground level, suited to damp ground or where a longer-lasting post is preferred.
Timber Gravel Boards
Timber gravel boards keeping the fencing clear of soil, matched to timber posts.
Concrete Gravel Boards
Concrete gravel boards that will not decay, providing a solid base often paired with concrete posts.
