Frequently asked questions

Do you charge for quotes?
No. Quotes and site visits are free and there is no obligation to book.
How much does a new fence cost?
It depends on length, height, materials, ground conditions and access. We give a clear written price after measuring up so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Is your work guaranteed?
Yes. All work is fully guaranteed and the business is fully insured. Guarantee details are confirmed in writing with your quote.
How long will my job take?
Most domestic fence runs take one to two days; gates, decking and pergolas vary. We confirm the timescale before we start.
Which fence is mine — left or right?
There is no legal rule, despite the common myth. Your title deeds or Land Registry plan usually show boundary ownership. If you are unsure, check before commissioning work.
Do I need planning permission for a fence?
Generally fences up to 2m in a rear garden, or 1m next to a highway, fall under permitted development. Listed buildings and conservation areas differ — check with Stoke-on-Trent City Council if in doubt.
Do you remove the old fence?
Yes, removal and responsible disposal can be included in your quote.
Do you work for businesses as well as homeowners?
Yes. Ben has installed fencing and gates both domestically and commercially for over twenty years.
Which areas do you cover?
We work across Stoke-on-Trent and the surrounding Staffordshire towns including Newcastle-under-Lyme, Stone, Leek and Cheadle. If you are slightly further out, just ask.
Can you repair storm damage?
Yes — replacement panels, snapped posts, re-hanging dropped gates and general repairs are all part of what we do.
