About Fencing in Redcar
Redcar developed into a Victorian seaside resort after the Middlesbrough and Redcar Railway opened in 1846, drawing day trippers from the growing industrial towns of Teesside for sea bathing and fresh coastal air. The town's steelworks, established by Dorman Long in 1917, became one of Europe's largest, with steel made in Redcar used in structures including the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Tyne Bridge, before the last blast furnace closed in 2015 after nearly a century of production.

Types of Materials found in Redcar

Is the ground in Redcar suitable for fence posts?
Redcar sits mainly on firm glacial boulder clay over Jurassic bedrock, though coastal properties benefit from timber treated for salt exposure given the sea air.
Do I need planning permission for a fence in Redcar?
Most fences up to two metres in a back garden, or one metre facing a road, do not need planning permission in Redcar. Redcar and Cleveland Council can confirm any extra rules for specific properties.
Does Redcar's weather affect fencing choices?
Redcar's coastal, salt laden air can accelerate wear on untreated timber, so a good quality preservative treatment is recommended for fencing near the seafront.
Where can I dispose of old fencing in Redcar?
Redcar and Cleveland 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.
