Fencing in Broadstairs, done properly.

Broadstairs is a specific place to work

The Isle of Thanet has its own weather and its own ground. Broadstairs sits on the eastern edge, and the fencing spec here is different from what you would fit inland. The chalk substrate makes for excellent post sets once you are through the thin topsoil. The clifftops at Kingsgate and North Foreland catch serious wind, and the standard six-foot closeboard on timber posts will not survive there. The salt air corrodes zinc-plated hardware within three years within sight of the sea. And then there is the holiday-let economy: half the town is short-term rented, guests turn over weekly, and landlords need work done between bookings without needing to be on site themselves.

Broadstairs Fencing is set up for those specifics. Concrete posts and gravel boards as the default on any coastal-belt run. Hot-dip galvanised or stainless hardware within half a mile of the sea. Photo quote via WhatsApp so a landlord in London can get a rear-garden panel replaced without a trip down.

Dickens Country

Broadstairs is the town Charles Dickens wrote in. Bleak House on the North Foreland cliff, the Dickens House museum on Victoria Parade, the annual Dickens Festival in June. A fencing contractor does not need to know that to install a fence, but working in a town that cares about its heritage means paying attention to conservation-area boundaries, being careful with visible frontages in the old parts of town, and defaulting to cottage-style picket rather than aggressive contemporary panel on the Viking Bay and St Peter's back streets.

What we do

Closeboard, panel, picket and palisade fencing. Timber and metal gates, pedestrian and driveway, with or without automation. Decking in softwood, hardwood and composite. Concrete-post upgrades on existing tired fences. Single-panel repair and gate re-hang for the holiday-let turnaround market.
