Fence installation covers a new boundary where none exists, or full replacement of an existing run. Work includes setting out post centres, digging footings into clay or gritstone subsoil, concreting posts, fitting rails and panels, and attaching gravel boards where the specification requires them.
Installation process
Posts are set in concrete with depth and diameter suited to fence height and soil type. On sloping gardens — common in suburbs such as Crookes, Dore and Walkley on the Pennine foothills — panels are stepped or raked to follow ground level while keeping a consistent top line.
Old fencing removal and disposal are listed separately in the quote when required.
Residential and commercial installation
Residential work includes garden fencing and gates. Commercial and security installations use metal systems — see commercial fencing and security fencing.
