Fencing Bicester

When it comes to installing new fences, we have a wide range of different  styles, and types from a number of different materials.

So if you are looking for a wooden fence for your garden or a steel or aluminium fence that offer protection for your commercial property we can provide them all.

Each type of fence offers different advantages and disadvantages, for example aluminium palisade fences offer good protection but not great privacy while a wood panel fence is good for privacy but may require a bit more maintenance.

Our team know all about the pros and cons of each type and will happily advise you which one will be best for your circumstances.

We will always asses the best and most affordable options for the repair and advise you on the best course of action. In some cases the damage may be severe and need a full replacement of a post or a section, we may advise that we are able to repair the issue with a quick fix but it would be better to replace some sections to prevent the need for future repair down the line.

So if you are in need of fence repair in Bicester, no matter how badly damaged the fence might be  then give us a call today.

To give your fence the best chance of a long life and prevent the need for regular repairs, it is important that you keep the fence well maintained.

That means treating it with a protective layer specially formulated fence treatment that is designed to seal the wood and prevent any moisture from penetrating the wood which will lead to rotting.

Most good quality products also have UV protection so will prevent the fence from drying, cracking and discolouration due to harmful rays from the sun.

In the case of a metal fence, you may need to apply anti rust formula to protect it from corrosion.

Many people do not have the time or the desire to pain their fences with these protective layers. Or they may not know which is the best product to use for their type of fence. This is why we also offer an affordable fence maintenance service where we can apply the layers of protection for you.

Our team are familiar with all the best products and the best methods for applying each product.

So to save yourself the hassle of protecting your fence yourself, give us a call today.

To compliment the beautiful fences we put up, we also provide a gate installation and fitting service for both residential and commercial properties.

If it's a wooden gate for privacy and aesthetics or a metal gate for the best protection we can install them both in a wide range of styles including both swing gate and sliding gates.

As always, our team are on hand to help you select the style of and design of your gate and custom fit it to ensure it looks fantastic as well as being practical.

As with fencing, we can also offer a gate repair service for any damaged or misfitting gates, so give us a call today.

Types and Styles Bicester Fencing Can Offer

When it comes to choosing the style and material you want your fence to be made of the choice can be overwhelming so we find it best to break them down to what the pros and cons are of each and match it with the requirements you have for your property. 

 So the first question is often whether you are a commercial or residential property. The reason is that the purpose the fence for each can be quite different. For residential most people will focus on the aesthetics of the fence as they want it to compliment the house and look good.

The other main requirement is privacy and protection. When you are relaxing in your garden you want to be able to do it with nosy neighbours or passers by looking in at you. You also want to ensure that if you have pets or young children that they cannot wander off the property easily into a road.

For Commercial properties the priority is usually around security and keeping unwanted intruders out to protect their products and stock. So aesthetics are often not as important for them and they will quite often want people to be able to see into the yard so they can see what they have to offer.

So to the type that matches these. Wooden panel fences are by far the most popular for gardens for residential clients, they are affordable but look good and can be shaped and painted in any style you want. They offer great security and privacy as there are no gaps for children or pets to climb through or for anyone to see in.

Wrought iron gates can also be a desirable choice from an aesthetic point of view but they are expensive and do not offer the same privacy benefits. That being said, on the right style of property they can look amazing

Steel and aluminium fences are perfect for commercial properties as their toughness and pointed tops provide great security, they are typically built in a palisade style with gaps in between so customers can still see into the yard. Maintenance is also fairly low if they are well protected to start with.

Whatever style or material you are looking for, our Fencing specialists in Bicester  can help you decide the best option and get it sourced and installed.

Which Fence Belongs to Me?

In most cases the fence on your left hand side as you look at the property is the one that belongs to you, if you are at the end of a row of properties there is a possibility that you have two fences that you own as you have no neighbour on one side. 

However there is no hard and fast rule, It all depends how the land has been divided up when first sectioned off.  So if there are any disputes between you and your neighbour or you want to erect a new fence, then it is best to check the with your local council or if you still have the documents that came with the sale of your property, they will probably be in the pack.

Our team can always help you out as we know the right people to get in touch with to get absolute clarity on which one you own.

Must I Get Planning Permission to Put up a Fence?

Unlike many installations you want to do on your house,in the UK, you generally don't actually need to get planning permission to  erect a new fence.

However there are some guidelines that must be followed or planning permission sought if you want to stray outside these.

• Your fence may not exceed 2m in height above the ground level for most of your property, you would need to seek permission if you wanted to make it higher.
• If the fence is adjacent to a main road then it may not be higher than 1M
• If your property is listed then permissions may also be required

How Often Should I Treat My Fence?

To avoid the need for regular repairs we recommend that you treat and protect your fence on an annual basis. We advise that mainly because of the harsh weather that the fence is subjected to in the UK, the large amounts of rain can seep into the wood and cause it to rot from the inside if not properly protected.

There are many different products on the market that all do a great job of sealing and protecting your fence and most of them come in a range of different colours so you are able to customise them to your desire.
