Commercial acoustic barrier installation across Normandy and GU3

Normandy sites that trade through an installation need the programme designed first and the fence second. We phase runs in sections, use temporary heras where a length is open, take evening and weekend slots where daytime work would stop your operation, and keep vehicle access working throughout. The technical variable here is usually properties backing onto the A331, M3 and A3 corridors where road noise is the sole driver.

Page purpose

For security risk briefs, a generic regional specification would miss the local plot conditions.

Acoustic Fencing installed on a commercial site near Normandy, GU3, showing the perimeter detail described on this page

What we record on the survey

  • Normandy is inside our 30-mile core area, so site visits are arranged within a week and project supervision is daily, not weekly.
  • We've spent enough time on GU3 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a acoustic barrier - the planning conditions attached to Rushmoor and Hart consents that name a specific noise target that gets missed when a national firm quotes from a desk.
  • Quotes are written, fixed and broken down by stage, with the same crew on site from day one through to clean-down.

What the quote covers

  • Tongue and groove timber panels at 25kg to 35kg per square metre for genuine mass
  • Composite and reflective faced panels where maintenance access is limited
  • Sealed joints and a closed base detail because a 5 percent gap undoes the barrier
  • Heights from 1.8m to 4.0m with steel posts sized for solid panel wind loading
  • Absorptive faces on the noise source side where reflection would move the problem
  • £5m public liability and £10m employers liability, RAMS issued before mobilisation

Why a facilities manager can sign this off

Customers in GU3 can ask for two or three recent addresses to drive past before agreeing the quote - we don't quote work we can't show.

FAQs - Acoustic Fencing in Normandy

Can the acoustic barrier be installed while our Normandy site stays open?
Yes. We phase the run so no section is left open at the end of a day, keep vehicle and pedestrian routes working, and take out of hours slots where daytime work would interrupt trading. That approach is priced into the quote rather than added later.
What local conditions change the specification around GU3?
Most often properties backing onto the A331, M3 and A3 corridors where road noise is the sole driver. We also record ground type, buried services, gate swept paths and whether the boundary is overlooked by existing camera coverage before fixing the specification.
Do you provide a written specification we can tender against?
Yes. The quote states profile or section, height, post centres, foundation detail, toppings, gate hardware and programme, so a procurement team can compare it against other tenders line by line rather than on a headline figure.
What is the cost of a acoustic barrier for a site near Pirbright?
Acoustic fencing typically runs £150 to £280 per metre fitted depending on height, panel mass and absorptive facing. Ground conditions and access on the individual site move that figure, which is why we survey before committing to a rate or a programme date.
What guarantee comes with a commercial install?
A written workmanship guarantee on every commercial installation, alongside the manufacturer cover on materials and any gate automation. It is issued at handover with the site walk round, not promised verbally.
What insurance do you carry for work in Normandy?
£5m public liability and £10m employers liability. Certificates go out with task specific RAMS and CSCS records before mobilisation, which is normally what a facilities manager or principal contractor asks for before booking an induction.

Booking the site survey

Most Normandy perimeters need one visit to establish ground, services and gate geometry, after which the specification and programme are fixed in writing. This applies to acoustic fencing enquiries from Normandy and the surrounding GU3 commercial estates.

Get the specification in writing

A survey gives you a written specification, a programme and a fixed figure, all of which can be compared against other tenders. Mention Normandy and acoustic fencing so the enquiry reaches the commercial survey list.
