The most cost-effective fencing options in London include standard overlap fence panels (£15-25 per meter), close board fencing (£20-35 per meter), or chain link fencing for larger areas (£12-20 per meter). While DIY installation can save on labor costs, professional installation in London ensures proper foundations and longevity, often making it more economical long-term.

In London, you typically don't need planning permission for fences up to 2 meters high in your back garden, or 1 meter high if it faces a road. However, if your London property is in a conservation area, listed building area, or has existing planning restrictions, you may need permission. We recommend checking with London Council's planning department or consulting our experienced team who understand local London regulations.

For London's climate, the strongest fencing options include pressure-treated close board fencing, composite panels, or powder-coated metal fencing. These materials resist the wet weather common in London and typically last 15-25 years. Steel and aluminum fencing offer the highest durability but at a premium cost. Our London team can recommend the best materials based on your specific location's exposure to wind and weather.

Most residential fence installations in London take 1-3 days depending on the length and complexity. A typical 30 meter garden fence can be completed in 1-2 days by our experienced London team. Factors that may extend installation time include ground conditions, access restrictions, or adverse weather. We always provide realistic timelines during our free London site surveys and keep you informed throughout the process.
