Close-Board Fencing shaped around how Whitehill homes are built

A well specified close-board fence is a recurring reason people contact us from GU35. The surrounding housing and ground conditions matter: Whitehill blends into Bordon on its eastern edge and is dominated by 1960s-90s estates with predictable plot sizes. The greensand soil here is light and free-draining but loses fines easily, so block-paving joints need polymeric sand rather than kiln-dried for any longevity. For this service, that leads us to check exposed rural boundaries where a rail-built fence outperforms a slotted panel in wind before recommending a finish or construction method.

Replacing a broken feather-edge board on a run rather than removing the whole panel, relevant close-board fencing detail for GU35 properties near Greatham

Whitehill constraints worth pricing properly

Whitehill 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 GU35 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a close-board fence - the boundaries where individual board replacement (rather than full panel swap) is a long-term maintenance advantage 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 Whitehill

What should I send before a GU35 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 Whitehill?: The first local issue we check is exposed rural boundaries where a rail-built fence outperforms a slotted panel in wind. We also look at access, levels and whether East Hampshire District Council needs to be involved before fixing the construction detail.
Can you cover Greatham as part of the same local run?: Yes. Greatham sits within our normal Whitehill working cluster, so it can be grouped with nearby surveys rather than treated as a distant call-out.

A useful next step
