About Fencing in Croydon
Croydon was once a Surrey market town before London's expansion absorbed it into the wider capital, and it went on to become home to Croydon Airport, Britain's first major international airport and the birthplace of air traffic control, until Heathrow took over as London's main gateway. The town today is a major south London commercial centre, served by its own tram network, the only one in southern England. Our directory lists fencing suppliers and installers covering the CR0 postcode area. Local tradespeople listed here can advise on the right fencing for your property and offer a free quote.
Average Installation cost in Croydon
Fencing costs in Croydon sit above the national average, reflecting the wider outer London market. Closeboard fencing typically runs £100 to £175 per metre fitted, lap panels £80 to £135 per metre, and post and rail £45 to £80 per metre. A standard 20 to 25 metre garden boundary usually costs between £2,600 and £5,000.
Types of Materials found in Croydon
Croydon sits at the foot of the Surrey North Downs, close to gaps in the chalk hills that historically shaped routes south towards Brighton. This chalk bedrock generally gives firmer, better draining ground than the London Clay found further north and east across the capital, though pockets of clay are also found across parts of the borough. Ground closer to the North Downs themselves tends to be firmer still, while flatter areas further from the hills can hold more moisture after rain.

Is the ground in Croydon suitable for fence posts?
Much of Croydon sits on chalk bedrock, generally firmer and better draining than the London Clay found elsewhere in the capital, though pockets of clay are also found across parts of the borough.
Do I need planning permission for a fence in Croydon?
Most fences up to two metres in a back garden, or one metre facing a road, do not need planning permission in Croydon. Croydon Council can confirm any extra rules for properties in conservation areas.
Does Croydon's weather affect fencing choices?
Croydon sits in the relatively dry south east of England, with its chalk based ground draining reasonably well after rain, so standard pressure treated timber generally performs well.
Where can I dispose of old fencing in Croydon?
Croydon 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.
