Fencing in Cumbria

Are you considering having fencing installed in Cumbria? Using the Quotatis service you are able to take a look at as many as 4 fence installers to get the best deal available for the work you want.

Fencing is very important for all houses whether it be the front or back garden. From repair work to a total installation of new fencing, working with a trustworthy company is highly advised to get the very best price available.

Fences work as a perimeter to our households and with an installation you'll increase security to your property preventing easy access to your back garden. Back garden fences are typically close to 6 feet high, which right away will make it more challenging for intruders to gain access.

Decorative fences or wooden picket fencing will often be most appropriate for the front garden, where security isn't as vital. Instead, you're more likely to opt for a front garden fence specifically for decoration and also to add something different.

For whatever type of fencing you're looking to have installed, make sure to use our free and no obligation service to get the best deal available in Cumbria.

Average Wooden fencing cost in Cumbria

The regular cost of a new or replacement fence is approximately £20-£45 per foot, not including removing your existing fence which could cost an extra £5-10 per foot. The labour costs depend on the length and height of your fence, the number of posts and the material used. It will also differ among regions, so it's best to get a few quotes to see what the best price is in your area.

Cumbria

Located in North West England, Cumbria is the third major county by area in the country and features a populace of less than 500,000. This offers it a staggeringly low populace density of only 190 people per square mile. Cumbria is bordered by North Yorkshire, County Durham and Northumberland. Cumbria has simply one city, Carlisle, with Barrow-in-Furness slightly behind in population size. In fact, there are only 5 towns with a populace over 20,000 and a lot of the county is non-urban. With a selection of household upgrades necessary for the Cumbria region, be sure just to work with reputable professionals to be certain reassurance and a top quality final result.

    FAQs

    Do I need to tell my neighbours if I’m going to replace my fence?

    It’s a good idea to talk to your neighbours before you start any work to avoid confusion along the way. But if the fence is definitely your responsibility and on your property, there’s no legal obligation to notify them. It’s also a myth that you need to erect a fence with the flush side without posts facing your neighbour’s property.

    Do I need to dispose of the old fencing myself?

    Most responsible contractors will dispose of the old fencing via an approved commercial waste site. Do check that the cost of taking rubbish away is included in the quotes you receive, otherwise you might find you get stung when it comes to paying for the work.

    How close can I build to my neighbour’s fence?

    As a home or property owner, you’re generally allowed to build next to your neighbour’s fence as long as it’s on your own side of the property. With that in mind, there are certain laws that regulate how close a fence can be built to buildings on the same lot or neighbouring lots. In addition, there are also local bylaws that provide limitations on the placements as well as height of fences so as to address safety hazards. In this post, we’re going to give you a good insight into how close you can build to your neighbour. Let’s take a look!

     

    In general, if the fence is in your boundary then you’re allowed to build a 2-metre high brick or wooden fence or wall. However, this may differ depending on your location in the UK. As a result, you may want to reach out to your municipality’s building department in order to determine what these rules and limitations are in your area. In the events whereby there are no such restrictions but you’re still concerned, you can try informing your neighbour what your concerns are. However, if they’re not receptive there are some steps you can take to ensure your plans go as smoothly as possible. These steps include the following:

    • Ensure to leave sufficient space for both the posts and footings
    • Stagger your fence posts in order to make sure you’re not digging your neighbour’s
    • Consider using concrete posts as they’re much stronger and will last a lot longer
    • Use kickers or plinths for raised gardens and flower beds
    • Make use of concrete plinths as they won’t rot over time like a wooden fence.
    What is the cheapest fence to install?

    The cheapest fence to install is, generally, a pressure-treated pine wooden fence at around £20 per linear foot. This includes the materials and labour costs. Wire fencing is technically cheaper at around £5 per foot, but it’s not a great material to use in homes as it looks unsightly and doesn’t provide any privacy.
