Close-Board Fencing shaped around how Wonersh homes are built

A well specified close-board fence is a recurring reason people contact us from GU5. The surrounding housing and ground conditions matter: Wonersh is a small conservation village with timber-frame cottages, a brick-and-tile high street and the Wonersh Park estate on the southern edge. Weald clay subsoil shrinks badly in dry summers, so we treat shrink-swell as the controlling risk on every foundation and patio scope. For this service, that leads us to check period properties around Farnham, Guildford and Alton where a traditional close-board line suits the elevation better than modern panels before recommending a finish or construction method.

Fitting close-board panels between existing concrete posts for a mid-life panel upgrade, relevant close-board fencing detail for GU5 properties near Shamley Green

Wonersh constraints worth pricing properly

Wonersh 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 GU5 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a close-board fence - the high-privacy plots that need a solid 6ft run without gaps between boards 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 Wonersh

What should I send before a GU5 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 Wonersh?: The first local issue we check is period properties around Farnham, Guildford and Alton where a traditional close-board line suits the elevation better than modern panels. We also look at access, levels and whether Waverley Borough Council needs to be involved before fixing the construction detail.
Can you cover Shamley Green as part of the same local run?: Yes. Shamley Green sits within our normal Wonersh working cluster, so it can be grouped with nearby surveys rather than treated as a distant call-out.

A useful next step

If your property sits towards Shamley Green or elsewhere in GU5, send a photo and rough dimensions first. We can usually identify the decisions that need an on-site check before arranging the visit. This recommendation is scoped to Wonersh close-board fencing enquiries.
