After our conversation, John arranged to come round same day to see the job and give us a quote.

What can a fencing contractor help with?

Fencing contractors are skilled professionals who handle a variety of tasks related to fences:

  • Installation: Expertly installing all types of fencing including wood, metal, and chain-link to enhance security and privacy.
  • Repair and Maintenance: Addressing issues such as damage from weather, accidents, or wear and tear to ensure your fence remains in top condition.
  • Inspections: Assessing the condition of existing fences to recommend necessary repairs or upgrades, ensuring all fences are up to security standards.
  • Legislation Compliance: Ensuring all fencing work complies with local laws and regulations, preventing any legal issues.

Whether for residential, commercial, or industrial properties, fencing contractors offer tailored solutions to meet specific security and aesthetic needs. If you are looking to completely change your garden, you may want to consider hiring a landscape gardener to help achieve your vision.

What should I consider when hiring a fencing company?

  1. Are a skilled company with a strong history of high standard projects  
  2. Have all the necessary licences and insurance needed to protect you and their workers 
  3. Have a good range of positive reviews from previous customers vouching for their reliability  
  4. Are offering the fencing services you need, and are available to carry out the work in the timeframe you need it to be completed by 
  5. Are quoting a price and payment option that you are happy with, having compared the quote with other fencing companies

How much do fencers cost to hire?

The cost of hiring fencers can vary widely depending on the type and size of the fencing project, the materials used, and the complexity of the installation. Here’s a breakdown of typical costs associated with various types of fencing:

  • Picket Fencing: Typically costs between £450 and £800 for a 4ft height and £550 to £1000 for a 6ft height.
  • Lap Panel Fencing: Costs range from £450 to £800 for 4ft and £600 to £1000 for 6ft heights.
  • Weave Fencing: Ranges from £450 to £800 for 4ft and £600 to £1200 for 6ft.
  • Close Board Fencing: Costs approximately £500 to £900 for 4ft and £650 to £1200 for 6ft heights.
  • Slatted Fencing: Generally, costs are between £600 to £1000 for 4ft and £800 to £1500 for 6ft.
  • Lattice Fencing: Typically, £650 to £1000 for 4ft and £900 to £1500 for 6ft heights.

Additional Cost Considerations

  • Fence Panel Costs: Individual fence panels can range from £15 for basic options to £150 for high-end, decorative panels. The choice of panels significantly impacts the overall price of the project.
  • Installation Complexity: Costs can increase based on the difficulty of the terrain. Uneven landscapes or hard-to-reach areas may require additional labour and equipment, thus increasing costs.
  • Additional Features: Costs may also include extras like gates, which could add several hundred pounds to the project. Special treatments like painting or staining the fence for weather protection and aesthetic purposes also add to the cost.
  • Labour Rates: Labor charges typically range from £25 to £50 per hour per person, with daily rates between £200 and £400. Labour costs might increase if the job requires multiple fencers or if the project is expected to take longer due to complexity.
  • Removal and Disposal: Removing an old fence and disposing of it responsibly can incur additional fees, which should be factored into the overall budget.

When planning your fencing project, it’s advisable to request detailed quotes from multiple contractors to compare and understand all potential costs. Ensure the quotes are all-encompassing, including materials, labour, and any additional fees to avoid surprises.

Other fencer FAQs

Who should pay for fence panels?

Typically, the responsibility may be shared between neighbours if the fence marks a boundary, but this can vary.

What is the hardest part of installing a fence?

The most challenging part can be ensuring the fence is level and properly aligned, especially on uneven terrain.

Can I replace my fence without neighbours permission?

If the fence is solely on your property, you generally do not need permission; however, if it’s a boundary fence, you should consult your neighbour.
