Fence repairs in London

Send a close photograph of the damage and another showing the full fence run. Note whether the problem appeared suddenly or has become more noticeable over time. If several sections move, identify each one rather than photographing only the most obvious defect. Do not push or lean on unstable fencing to demonstrate it.

Leave the damaged area accessible for assessment and keep people away from loose sections. Tell us about plants growing through the fence or items resting against it. In small London gardens, the damage can be partly hidden behind sheds or dense growth; a view of those restrictions helps us plan access.

We look at the damaged parts, adjoining sections and the ground around the affected supports. We also check whether nearby planting or another structure is placing pressure on the fence. The aim is to distinguish a local defect from a problem running further along the boundary.

If the repair would alter the fence’s size or position, check with your local council about planning requirements. Confirm ownership before work on a shared boundary. After assessment, we agree the repair quotation and manage the work from start to finish, discussing any wider issues before changing the scope.
