Fencing across Richmond and Twickenham

Richmond, Kew, Twickenham, St Margarets and Whitton cover a wide mix: Georgian and Victorian houses near the green and the river, Edwardian villas, and large areas of interwar semis with long back gardens. The Thames, Richmond Park and the area’s many green spaces shape the feel of the place.

Long gardens mean long runs of fence, so build quality matters: deeper posts, concrete where possible, and gravel boards throughout. Where a garden runs down to the river or a green space, we also think about exposure to wind and damp.

We can talk through style and finish at the survey. Where a conservation area or listed building applies, we flag it before you order. Common on period front boundaries.

Timber garden gate set into a fence

Garden gates

Built on their own posts.

Each gate gets its own concrete-set posts and hardware suited to its weight, so it does not drop or pull the fence out of line.

Local considerations

Richmond upon Thames has a large number of conservation areas and many listed buildings, and parts of the area are on the Thames floodplain. Both can affect what you can build and how. The standard allowances apply to most houses, but flats, listed buildings and conservation areas can differ, so check before you order materials.

If you’re replacing a shared fence, we can price the job so the cost can be split fairly.

Common questions in Richmond and Twickenham

What customers in Richmond and Twickenham ask us most, from whether Jacksons is worth it to flooding and mature trees.

Is Jacksons worth it on a long garden?

It sits at the premium end, but its factory build and 25-year product guarantee suit long runs where you want fewer repairs.

Does flooding affect the fence?

In low-lying areas ground can be wet, so we use concrete posts and gravel boards to keep timber out of contact with soil.

Can you work around mature trees?

Yes. Roots and canopy are part of the survey, and we plan post positions around them.
