Our Step‑by‑Step Fencing Process
1. Enquiry & quote
You can contact Gardeners Surrey by phone, email or online form. We will ask for a brief description of your existing fence, approximate lengths, access and any photos you can share. For straightforward jobs we may be able to provide an initial guide price from this information. We then follow up with a clear written quote detailing the fencing type, materials and any additional work required.
2. Survey – virtual or onsite
For most fencing projects we recommend an onsite survey in Surrey to measure accurately, check ground conditions and confirm boundaries with you. Where access is difficult or you are away, we can arrange a virtual survey using photos, measurements and video calls. Following the survey, we finalise your quote, agree materials and confirm a convenient installation date.
3. Installation day
On the agreed date, our professional team arrives on time, introduces themselves and reviews the plan with you. We take down and remove old fencing (if included), set new posts in concrete or post mix, install panels or boards and add any trellis or gates. We keep disruption to a minimum, protect lawns and pathways where practical, and leave the area tidy, sweeping and removing waste as agreed.
4. Final checks and aftercare advice
Once the fence is installed, we walk the line with you, check fixings and answer any questions on maintenance, painting or planting near the fence. We can also schedule ongoing garden maintenance, such as hedge trimming away from the fence, to help prolong its life.
Transparent Fencing Pricing in Surrey
Fencing costs depend on length, height, ground conditions and the materials you choose. We believe in clear, honest pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes typically itemise:
- Type and quantity of panels, boards or rails
- Number and type of posts (timber or concrete)
- Gate supply and ironmongery, if required
- Labour for removal and installation
- Waste disposal, if requested
For smaller repairs we may work on a fixed labour price plus materials. For larger installations we usually provide an all‑inclusive project price, so you know exactly what to expect before we begin.
Why Use Professional Gardeners Instead of DIY Fencing?
DIY fencing can appear straightforward, but small mistakes often lead to leaning posts, rotting bases and panels that fail in the first strong wind. As trained professionals, we set posts to the right depth and spacing, allow for slopes, avoid underground services and ensure consistent height and alignment. We understand local soil conditions in Surrey and select appropriate fixings and concrete mixes. This results in a stronger, longer‑lasting fence, installed safely and usually in far less time than a DIY attempt.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Gardeners Surrey takes safety, neighbours and your property seriously. We are fully insured with:
- Goods in transit insurance – protecting your materials while being transported to site.
- Public liability cover – covering accidental damage to property or injury to third parties during our work.
Our team follow clear health and safety procedures, use appropriate PPE and work with consideration for neighbours, access routes and shared boundaries. We always seek your agreement if any variation from the original plan is required once work has begun.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Where possible we source timber from reputable, sustainably managed suppliers and recommend pressure‑treated products to extend lifespan. We take care to minimise disturbance to planting and lawns, working around established beds and trees wherever we can. Old timber is separated for responsible disposal or recycling where facilities allow. We are happy to advise on planting schemes, such as climbers and hedging, that work well with your new fencing and support wildlife in your Surrey garden.
Real‑World Garden Use Cases
Fencing is often part of a wider garden improvement plan. We regularly combine fencing with other services such as:
- Hedge trimming – keeping hedges away from new fences to reduce moisture damage and allow airflow.
- Garden maintenance – regular visits to keep borders, beds and boundaries tidy alongside your new fencing.
- Lawn mowing – careful mowing and edging against new fence lines for a neat finish.
- Patio cleaning – pressure‑washing patios and paths once fencing work is completed, especially in smaller gardens where access may have created some surface dirt.
- Tree surgery – light pruning or more substantial tree work where branches threaten fence lines or create excessive shade and damp.
By coordinating these services, we can often reduce overall disruption and help your garden feel complete more quickly.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does fencing cost in Surrey?
The cost of fencing in Surrey depends on the length and height required, the style of fence, access to the garden and whether old fencing needs removing. As a rough guide, simple panel replacements are cheaper than bespoke closeboard or decorative options. During your enquiry we discuss your priorities and budget, then provide a clear written quote before any work starts. This breaks down materials, labour and waste removal so you know exactly what you are paying for, with no hidden extras added later.
Can you offer same‑day or urgent fencing repairs?
Availability for same‑day fencing work depends on our schedule and the size of the job. For urgent issues, such as storm‑damaged panels compromising security or pet safety, we always try to prioritise a temporary or partial fix. This might include securing loose panels, bracing posts or installing a quick short‑term barrier. We then return to complete a full repair or replacement once materials arrive. Contact us as early as possible, ideally with photos, so we can advise realistically on timings.
Are you insured while working on my property?
Yes. Gardeners Surrey is fully insured for all fencing work we carry out. We hold public liability cover to protect against accidental damage to property or injury to third parties while we are working. We also have goods in transit insurance for fencing materials and tools while they are being transported to your site. Copies of our insurance details can be provided on request. We work carefully, follow health and safety guidance and always aim to minimise risk to you, your neighbours and your property.
What’s included in your fencing service?
Our standard fencing service includes an initial consultation, advice on suitable fencing, measurement and planning, supply of agreed materials, removal of old fencing if specified, installation of posts and panels, and a thorough tidy‑up afterwards. We aim to leave your garden usable and safe at the end of each day. Extras such as painting or staining, major groundworks, or significant tree work are not automatically included but can often be added as separate services. Everything will be clearly set out in your written quote so you can see what is and isn’t covered.
How far in advance do I need to book?
Lead times vary with the season. Spring and early summer are usually busiest, so for larger projects it is wise to contact us several weeks in advance. Smaller repairs can sometimes be fitted in sooner, particularly in quieter periods. Once you accept our quote, we agree a firm start date and keep you updated if material deliveries affect timing. If you have a specific deadline – for example, moving in, tenants arriving or business opening – let us know and we will do our best to schedule around it.
