Fencing Solutions for Every Style and Budget
We offer a range of high-quality fencing options to suit your specific needs, budget, and aesthetic preferences:
Classic Wooden Fencing
A timeless choice offering natural beauty and versatility. We install various styles like traditional feather edge, robust close board, and decorative panels, often using pressure-treated timber for enhanced longevity against the Yorkshire weather. Ideal for privacy and creating a warm aesthetic.
Low-Maintenance Vinyl & Composite Fencing
For a modern look with minimal upkeep, consider vinyl or composite fencing. These materials are highly durable, resistant to rot, insects, and fading, and never need painting. A smart investment for long-lasting, hassle-free style.
Durable Metal Fencing & Gates
When security and strength are top priorities, metal fencing offers excellent protection. Options range from simple railings to secure panel systems. We also install sturdy, reliable metal gates to complement your fencing.
Concrete Posts & Gravel Boards
For maximum durability and longevity, especially at the base of wooden fences, we recommend concrete posts and gravel boards. These prevent ground contact, significantly reducing the risk of rot and extending the life of your fence panels.
Expert Fence Repair Services
Has stormy weather damaged a panel? Is a post loose or leaning? We don't just install new fences; our fencing contractors also provide efficient fence repair services across the Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield areas. Prompt repairs can often save you the cost and hassle of a full replacement. Contact us to discuss your repair needs.
