Fencing installation is setting fence posts into the ground, usually in concrete, and fixing panels or boards between them to mark a boundary, add privacy or keep children and pets in, with gates fitted where access is needed.

Whatever type of house you own in Bedworth, we start by looking at how new fencing and gates would fit it rather than offering a standard package. We cover CV12 and neighbouring places such as Nuneaton, Coventry and Hinckley. One named person looks after you from survey to handover, and nothing is booked until you hold our figure in writing, fixed for the work described.

What are homes like around Bedworth?

Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick have timber-framed and Georgian buildings, and Leamington Spa is known for Regency stucco terraces and villas. Nuneaton and Bedworth have brick terraces from their mining and industrial past, Rugby mixes Victorian housing with large new estates, and southern villages near the Cotswolds use limestone and blue lias.

Regency and period homes may need render repairs, decorating and windows that suit conservation areas. Terraces suit loft conversions and extensions, and newer estate homes often take garage conversions and landscaping.

In Bedworth, as elsewhere in Warwickshire, we take the building's age and construction into account before recommending anything, because both can change what is involved in new fencing and gates.

Permissions for new fencing and gates in Bedworth

Because Bedworth falls under England's rules, the guidance below is the version relevant to you. Before sending a price, we check your property's position with the council.

In England, fences, walls and gates up to 2 m high are usually permitted development, or up to 1 m where they are next to a road used by vehicles or its footpath. Listed buildings, conservation areas and estates with planning conditions can be stricter.

Building Regulations do not apply to ordinary garden fences, but boundary lines should be agreed with your neighbour first.

Rules change and every property is different, so we check the planning history and constraints for your address before we quote.

The four stages

  1. A visit to your home

    We begin by looking at the job in person. During the free survey we discuss options, materials and budget for new fencing and gates, and photograph or measure anything the quote needs to reflect.

  2. Your fixed price

    We put everything into a written, fixed-price quote: the specification, what's excluded, staged payments and the expected time on site. Take whatever time you need to decide; there's no pressure to commit.

  3. Dates and permissions

    Preparation matters as much as the build. We agree access, parking and working hours with you, order materials in good time, and confirm any permissions so the job isn't held up once it starts.

  4. Build and hand over

    The job proceeds in the order set out in the programme, with dust and debris kept under control. Finally we tidy away, inspect the work together and pass the finished project over to you with its paperwork.

Fencing and gates in Bedworth: questions

Which postcodes in Bedworth do you cover?

We cover CV12, along with the rest of Warwickshire. If your postcode is not listed, get in touch anyway: our coverage is UK-wide, and we can usually arrange a survey wherever you live. Enter your postcode in the guide-price tool or contact form and we will confirm.

Who do I deal with during the job?

One point of contact manages your project from survey to handover. They schedule the trades working under our contract, keep you updated on progress, and are the person to call with any question. You don't need to coordinate builders, electricians or decorators separately, because that is part of what we do.

How high can my fence be?

Fence height limits depend on planning rules, your home's location, whether it is listed or in a conservation area, and which UK nation you live in. In England, fences up to 2m high are usually permitted development, reduced to 1m next to a road used by vehicles. Higher fences need planning permission. We check the rules for your boundary before quoting.

How much does a new fence cost?

About 20m of new panel or closeboard fencing with concrete posts costs £1,200–£2,900, including removal of the old fence. As a guide, allow roughly £55–£130 per metre plus a small fixed cost for removal and waste. Lap panels sit at the lower end, while closeboard, slatted and composite fencing cost more. Gates, slopes and hard ground add to the price. We confirm a fixed price after measuring.

What kind of gate do I need?

The right gate depends on its job. A side gate for access to the back garden is usually timber or metal, around 0.9m to 1m wide, with a secure lock. Driveway gates are wider, often in pairs, and need strong posts. Composite and metal gates resist warping. We measure the opening, check posts and suggest hinges, latches and locks for security.
