Whats Included
What our fencing installation service covers.
Fencing is one of the most frequently replaced outdoor elements in any garden — and one of the most frequently installed badly. Posts concreted in too shallow, panels not properly secured, insufficient post spacing — these are the reasons fencing blows down in the first strong wind and needs replacing again within a few years.
At RedEgg Renovations we install all fencing on concrete spurs or posts set in concrete to the correct depth, with panels properly secured and gravel boards fitted at the base to prevent ground contact and rot. Our fencing installation service across Bexleyheath and Kent includes:
-
Close board fencing — the most durable and popular option
-
Panel fencing — overlap and featheredge panel styles
-
Post and rail fencing
-
Trellis installation and extensions
-
Garden gate supply and fitting — timber and metal
-
Concrete post and gravel board installation
-
Existing fence removal and disposal
-
Fence painting and treatment
-
Acoustic and privacy fencing solutions
Fencing Types
Which fencing is right for your garden?
The right fencing choice depends on the level of privacy you need, the style of the garden and your budget. Here's a guide to the most popular fencing types we install across Bexleyheath and Kent.
Close Board Fencing
The most durable and popular choice for garden boundaries across Bexleyheath and Kent. Featheredge boards are nailed to arris rails on concrete or timber posts — giving maximum strength, privacy and longevity. Close board fencing properly installed will outlast panel fencing significantly.
Best for: Maximum privacy, durability, exposed positions
Panel Fencing
Overlap or featheredge panels in standard sizes are the most cost-effective fencing option. Panel fencing is quick to install and looks smart when new, though it's less durable than close board in exposed positions. Concrete posts and gravel boards extend the lifespan significantly.
Best for: Budget-conscious installs, sheltered positions
Post & Rail Fencing
An open fence style with two or three horizontal rails between posts. Used for garden boundaries where visibility is desired rather than privacy — popular for front gardens, rural boundaries and alongside driveways. Can be combined with hedging for a more natural look.
Best for: Front gardens, rural boundaries, open style
Trellis
Lattice trellis panels can be used as a standalone fence or as an extension on top of an existing fence to add height and privacy without making the boundary feel completely enclosed. Works particularly well with climbing plants. We install trellis extensions on all fence types.
Best for: Adding height, climbing plants, open feel
Garden Gates
A new gate — whether timber or metal — can completely change the entrance to a garden. We supply and fit garden gates in all sizes and styles, from simple side access gates to double driveway gates. All gates are hung on heavy-duty hinges and fitted with quality latches and locks.
Best for: Security, access control, kerb appeal
Not Sure?
We'll advise on the most appropriate fencing for your specific garden and boundary at the consultation visit — considering the position, the exposure, the level of privacy required and your budget. Our only interest is recommending what's genuinely right for your garden.

Why RedEgg
Fencing contractors in Bexleyheath who install it to last.
The number one reason fencing fails is posts set too shallow or in post spikes rather than concrete. A fence post that's only 18 inches in the ground in a spike will move in the first significant wind. A post concreted in to the correct depth — one third of the total post length — will stay solid for the lifetime of the fence.
We concrete all posts properly, fit gravel boards at the base of every panel to prevent ground contact, and secure panels correctly. It takes a little longer and costs marginally more in materials — but it's the difference between a fence that lasts fifteen years and one that needs replacing in five.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about fencing installation.
How much does new fencing cost in Bexleyheath?
Fencing costs in Bexleyheath and across Kent depend on the type of fencing, the length of the run and whether existing fencing needs removing. As a rough guide, close board fencing on concrete posts with gravel boards typically starts from £80–£120 per metre supply and fit. Panel fencing is usually £60–£90 per metre. Gates are priced separately depending on size and style. We visit for free and provide a full written quote with no obligation.
How long does fencing installation take?
A standard garden fencing installation in Bexleyheath or across Kent typically takes one to three days depending on the length of the run and the type of fencing. Longer boundaries or projects involving significant removal and disposal will take longer. We'll give you a clear timeline as part of your written quote.
Do I need permission to put up a fence?
In most cases, no. Fences up to 2 metres high are permitted development in England and don't require planning permission. Fences over 1 metre adjacent to a highway (including footpaths and roads) do require permission. If your property is in a conservation area or is a listed building, different rules apply. We'll advise on the planning position at the consultation visit.
Who is responsible for boundary fencing?
Responsibility for boundary fences in Bexleyheath and Kent is determined by the title deeds of the property — the boundary marked with a T on the deeds is typically the responsibility of the property owner on whose side the T falls. If you're unsure about boundary responsibility, your solicitor or the Land Registry can advise. We work on whatever boundary the customer owns — we don't get involved in boundary disputes.
Why does fencing blow down after a few years?
In almost every case, fencing that blows down prematurely has been installed on posts set too shallow or in post spikes. Post spikes and shallow concrete simply don't provide sufficient anchorage to resist wind loading on a full fence panel. We concrete all posts to one third of the total post length — typically 600mm in the ground for a 1.8m fence. It's the only way to install fencing that will genuinely last.
