Fencing Specialists Serving Cheltenham & Gloucestershire
We supply and install all types of garden and boundary fencing — from traditional close-board featherboard privacy fencing to decorative garden panels, post and rail fencing, and automated gates. Every installation is built to last: all posts are set in concrete foundations, arris rails are cut and fixed with galvanised brackets, and we use pressure-treated timber as standard throughout. Gravel boards along the base protect the featherboard panels from ground contact and moisture — significantly extending the life of your fence. We also remove and dispose of all existing fencing before starting, so you don't need to do any preparation yourself. For boundary fencing, we can advise on your legal boundaries and exact post placement. Fully insured, free site survey, fixed price written quotes.
We work extensively across Cheltenham and the surrounding Gloucestershire and North Cotswolds area, completing driveways, patios, fencing and groundworks projects across GL50, GL51, GL52 and GL53 postcodes. Spring bookings are now open — April and May installation slots are available, so get in touch to secure your date. Cheltenham's Regency and Victorian architecture makes it one of the most visually distinctive towns in England — and one where the right driveway surface genuinely matters. Properties in the central Conservation Areas — Montpellier, Lansdown, Pittville and St Paul's — are subject to tighter planning and design guidance. Permeable surfaces such as resin bound gravel and open-jointed block paving are generally the most appropriate choice for period Cheltenham properties: they're planning-friendly, complement the architecture, and manage surface water in the way Cheltenham Borough Council expects. We know which surfaces work in which areas and will advise you clearly at your free site visit before you commit to anything. Cheltenham's ground conditions are predominantly clay-based in the lower-lying areas, with better-draining soils on the slopes toward Battledown, Charlton Kings and the Leckhampton escarpment. Tree root protection is a real consideration on the tree-lined streets of the Promenade conservation area — we assess every site and flag any risks as part of your survey. We cover Cheltenham and regularly work in Bishops Cleeve, Woodmancote, Prestbury, Charlton Kings, Leckhampton, Tewkesbury, Winchcombe, Bourton-on-the-Water, Stroud, Painswick, Cirencester, Evesham and across the North Cotswolds. All quotes are fixed in writing before any work begins. No deposit required until we start on site. We carry £5 million public liability insurance. All work includes a written guarantee.

Planning Permission in Cheltenham
Fencing up to 2 metres high at the rear and sides of a property, and up to 1 metre at the front, generally does not require planning permission under Permitted Development Rights. Fencing in conservation areas, adjacent to listed buildings, or on corner plots may have different restrictions. We advise on all planning matters and exact boundary positions during your free site survey.
What Customers Say About Our Fencing
“Great job by Josh and his team, hard working and fast, no deposit asked for and payment after completion.”
Ken Hayward

“First class service from start to finish. Arrived on time each day, went through what they were doing as they were working. My driveway looks brand new, no weeds coming through 2 weeks later. So impressed with the driveway I had the patio cleaned as well. Will definitely use again.”
Mr Chiddy

“Josh and his Team have just installed a Resin Drive to my property and their standard of work was excellent and communication skills also excellent. Once they started work they continued until work finished and didn't go from job to job which is what I liked the most. I would recommend Josh and his Team and I will be using them again for further work.”

Fencing Questions Answered
How much does fencing cost to install in the UK?
Fencing cost depends on the length of the run, the fence type and height, ground conditions and whether existing fencing needs removing. Every job is individually measured and quoted — we include removal of all existing fencing and full disposal in our prices. Book a free site survey for a full fixed written quote.
How do I stop my fence from rotting?
Three things prevent premature fence rot: (1) pressure-treated timber throughout — not just painted; (2) concrete posts rather than timber posts in the ground; (3) gravel boards along the base to keep the featherboard panels off the soil. We use all three on every installation as standard. A fence installed this way will last 15–25 years without significant maintenance.
What is the most popular fence type in the UK?
Close-board (also called featherboard) fencing is the UK's most popular garden fence — overlapping vertical featherboard planks on arris rails give a solid, private screen at a reasonable cost. It looks clean, provides excellent privacy and is available in heights from 1.2m to 2m. For a more decorative look, framed lattice panel fencing or hit-and-miss style panels are increasingly popular.
Do I need planning permission for a 2m fence?
Generally no — fencing up to 2m at the rear and sides of a residential property is permitted development. The exception is at the front of a property facing a highway, where the limit is 1m. Conservation areas, listed buildings and some new-build developments have stricter rules. We advise during your free site survey and ensure your installation complies.
How long does fencing installation take?
Most residential fencing jobs take 1–2 days. A 20–30 metre run of close-board fencing is typically completed in a single day. Larger boundary projects with multiple sections, removal of old fencing and gate installation may take 2–3 days. We give you a specific programme during your free site visit.
