About Fencing in Ware
Ware is a small market town on the River Lea in Hertfordshire, its history closely tied to malting and brewing, industries that once made it one of the country's most important centres for producing malt for London's breweries. A number of old malting buildings still stand along the riverside, some converted to new uses, and the town's High Street retains a good number of older shopfronts and coaching inns from its days as a stop on the road north out of London. Our directory lists fencing suppliers and installers covering the SG12 postcode area, serving both the town centre and the residential streets spreading out from it. Local tradespeople listed here can advise on the right fencing for your property and offer a free quote.

Types of Materials found in Ware
Ware sits within the Lea Valley, where river deposits of sand and gravel overlie the chalk bedrock typical of Hertfordshire, giving generally reasonable drainage in the valley itself compared with pure chalk or clay areas. Away from the immediate riverside, ground rises onto more typical Hertfordshire chalk geology, which can include historic quarrying and, in places, old underground galleries from past chalk extraction, a feature noted across the county that occasionally affects ground stability, though this is more relevant to larger structures than shallow fence post footings.

Is the ground in Ware suitable for fence posts?
Ground in the Lea Valley itself generally drains reasonably well thanks to river sand and gravel deposits, while areas further from the river sit on the chalk bedrock typical of Hertfordshire.
Do I need planning permission for a fence in Ware?
Most fences up to two metres in a back garden, or one metre facing a road, do not need planning permission in Ware. East Hertfordshire Council can confirm any extra rules for properties near the historic malting buildings.
Does Ware's chalk geology affect fencing?
Hertfordshire's chalk bedrock has, in places, historic underground quarrying galleries that can occasionally affect ground stability, though this is far more relevant to larger buildings than shallow domestic fence post footings.
Where can I dispose of old fencing in Ware?
East Hertfordshire Council operates household waste recycling centres in the area that accept timber and garden waste. Many local fencing contractors will also remove your old fence as part of the installation.
