Fencing in Worcester Park
Closeboard, lap, panel and picket fencing fitted with concrete posts and concrete gravel boards.
Fencing in Worcester Park is mostly about getting the boundary right and using posts and gravel boards that will outlast the boards on top. Inter-war semis with broadly uniform rear gardens, typically 12 to 15 metres deep. Side gates are common and useful. Most of my work in Worcester Park is around worcester park station and the streets either side of it. I always check the deeds note on which boundaries belong to which house before quoting, and I always use concrete posts and concrete gravel boards.
Worcester Park is mostly 1930s housing on planned streets, with consistent plot sizes and reasonable side access on most homes. A working family suburb. Most fences I fit in Worcester Park are 1.8m closeboard with a 30cm trellis topper, on concrete posts and concrete gravel boards. Lap panels are also common, and they're a good budget option if the boundary is sheltered. I don't fit timber posts straight in the ground because they fail at the base in five to seven years.

Fencing in Worcester Park FAQs
How tall can I have a fence in Worcester Park?
Without planning permission, two metres on rear and side boundaries, one metre on a boundary fronting a road. Worcester Park is in the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. Most landscaping work here is permitted development, but the older parts near the river have conservation status, which can affect what materials are allowed. I'll flag anything borderline before any work starts.
Do you replace fences after storm damage in Worcester Park?
Yes, regularly. After a bad storm I usually have a string of fence jobs across Worcester Park and the surrounding areas. If you've lost panels or a whole run, get in touch and I'll come and quote.
How quickly can you start a fencing job in Worcester Park?
Spring and early summer are the busiest months. For larger jobs I usually book six to ten weeks ahead. Smaller fencing jobs in Worcester Park can sometimes fit in within a couple of weeks. The best step is a quick call to check current availability.
Do you cover all of Worcester Park?
Yes. Worcester Park (KT4) and the surrounding streets are all within my regular working area. If you're on the edge of Worcester Park or in a neighbouring area like new malden, that's still fine.
