About Fencing in Brentwood
Brentwood is a town in south Essex that grew up as a coaching stop on the old road out of London, and still retains a number of historic buildings along its High Street, including the ruins of a medieval chapel. The town has become a popular commuter base thanks to its fast rail links into London, and the wider borough includes a good deal of green belt countryside. Our directory lists fencing suppliers and installers covering postcodes CM13 through CM15. Local tradespeople listed here can advise on the right fencing for your property and offer a free quote.
Average Installation cost in Brentwood
Fencing costs in Brentwood sit above the wider south Essex average, reflecting the town's more affluent property market. Closeboard fencing typically runs £95 to £170 per metre fitted, lap panels £75 to £130 per metre, and post and rail £40 to £75 per metre. A standard 20 to 25 metre garden boundary usually costs between £2,500 and £4,800.
Types of Materials found in Brentwood
Brentwood sits within the London Basin on London Clay, though the town's position on slightly higher ground than some of its neighbours means drainage can be a little better in places than on the flatter clay plains further into Essex. This clay still holds moisture well and can be slow draining after sustained rain across most of the borough. Towards the edges of Brentwood, where the land transitions into more rural green belt countryside, ground conditions can vary more, so a site specific check is worthwhile for larger or more rural plots.

Is the ground in Brentwood suitable for fence posts?
Most of Brentwood sits on London Clay, though the town's slightly higher position can mean somewhat better drainage than flatter parts of Essex. Ground towards the green belt edges of the borough can vary more.
Do I need planning permission for a fence in Brentwood?
Most fences up to two metres in a back garden, or one metre facing a road, do not need planning permission in Brentwood. Brentwood Council can confirm any extra rules for properties in conservation areas around the historic High Street.
Does Brentwood's weather affect fencing choices?
Brentwood sits in the relatively dry south east of England, though local clay soil retains moisture after rain, so pressure treated timber and solidly concreted posts generally perform well here.
Where can I dispose of old fencing in Brentwood?
Brentwood Council operates household waste recycling centres that accept timber and garden waste. Many local fencing contractors will also remove your old fence as part of the installation.
