Here are a couple of recent fencing projects we have completed. In one instance, we had to remove a 2-meter-wide hedgerow entirely, and fortunately, we were able to use an excavator to assist with digging out the roots. We source most, if not all, of our materials from Crestala Fencing, located in Langton Green.

One client sought to create additional space to facilitate further construction work on their property. Another client opted for panel fencing to enhance privacy from a neighboring property. Ironically both these projects were located in Horsemonden.

For this project, the client wished to create a larger parking area. We achieved this by removing the existing hedge and excavating the old, unused front lawn. The area was finished with a blend of silver and red 20mm granite chippings to complement the existing driveway. The project was completed with a border of silver granite setts, providing a neat and defined edge.

This was a delightful summer project completed last year. We began by removing the entire old garden, a challenging task made more difficult by having to work through the client’s property. Nearly 10 tonnes of material were removed, with an additional 8 tonnes brought in, making it a demanding yet achievable project. During the excavation, we uncovered a completely failed drainage system, necessitating the installation of a new soakaway and a modern ACO channel drain system.

The land was excavated by approximately one meter to create additional patio space, and the old steps were entirely redesigned to allow for a larger, more usable lawn area. Oak sleepers were installed to retain the soil, significantly transforming the garden’s appearance. A new closeboard fence was also erected to provide greater privacy.

To complete the project, a Raj Indian sandstone patio was laid using four standard patio slab sizes. The entire area is now more functional and inviting, allowing the client to enjoy more sociable days and evenings in their garden.

We completed a similar project last year utilizing large lengths of treated timber measuring 5.4 meters by 8 inches by 2 inches. The structure was supported by a substantial house wall plate and four sturdy posts measuring 5 inches by 5 inches to adequately bear the considerable weight. The design was intended to achieve a pergola effect while functioning as a veranda. The roof consists of 12mm polycarbonate panels to provide protection from rain, with all rainwater effectively connected to the drainage system. The total area is around 35m2 and is now a well utilised space.
