Planning a close-board fence around Ottershaw?

A close-board fence in Ottershaw has to respond to more than a postcode. Ottershaw is a small village strip with period cottages near the church and 1960s-90s detached estates on Brox Rd and Coach Rd. Heath sand and clay pockets demand different sub-base specs within the village, so we trial-dig rather than assume. We inspect access from A320, M25 J11 within 2 miles, no station - Addlestone within 2 miles. and build the quotation around high-privacy plots that need a solid 6ft run without gaps between boards, with materials and stages written down before work starts.

Page purpose

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

Building a full-height 6ft close-board run for privacy from a two-storey neighbour extension, relevant close-board fencing detail for KT16 properties near Chertsey

Read the plot before choosing the finish

  • Ottershaw 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 KT16 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a close-board fence - the exposed rural boundaries where a rail-built fence outperforms a slotted panel in wind 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.

FAQs - Close-Board Fencing in Ottershaw

Can you cover Chertsey as part of the same local run?
Yes. Chertsey sits within our normal Ottershaw working cluster, so it can be grouped with nearby surveys rather than treated as a distant call-out.
What should I send before a KT16 site visit?
A wide photo, approximate dimensions, access width and a note about the intended use are enough to make the first conversation useful.
How is the quote made specific to this property?
It records excavation or foundation assumptions, materials, disposal, access, programme and exclusions. The allowance is based on the measured site rather than copied from another town.
What changes the specification around Ottershaw?
The first local issue we check is high-privacy plots that need a solid 6ft run without gaps between boards. We also look at access, levels and whether Runnymede Borough Council needs to be involved before fixing the construction detail.
