Need recommendation for garden fence repair?


Recommended Posts

Hey all, Our garden fence has died a horrible death and collapsed into our neighbours garden. Can anyone recommend a person or business that can fix fences and do a really good job? Our landlord had some cowboys repair it last year and it just crumbled in less than a year unfortunately. Any help is appreciated.


Happy Christmas.

Common myth. No such 'left hand fence' rule exists. If in doubt, check the deeds.. It's the only way to know for sure.


And.. Ho ho ho... Meeeeerrry Christmas!

I've got the same problem and the guy my neighbour used previously on a different fence was really good. His name is Francis and his number is: 07946 025444.


He came out yesterday to do a quote and is starting work on Thursday. He's buying all the materials and giving us the receipts for payment. Reasonable labour costs too.

    • Exactly. I complained about them being broken for around 2 YEARS and they were repaired autumn (?) last year but only today when I emailed the councillor did he say he had "just received keys". I have no objection to a mix of community groups etc using the board but surely it should be open to all? Including local businesses, many of whom rely on word of mouth or boards like this - they don't often make much profit so it's great to support local business owners. It's not really my own interest as I am not a business owner... I am just reflecting what I would like to see - that I admit - as per my original post. p.s. the noticeboards I am talking about are empty - not used by anyone as the councillor has the key! Watch my words. They will be updated yearly if that and the info will go out of date. Last time the Northcross Rd one ended up with local councillor contact details, community centre contacts (useful I agree) and random flyers. Someone broke the glass and that was it for several years until I constantly emailed and James Barber - wonderful former councillor for the area - proactively supported, and we now have it fixed and a new one near ED station...
    • Voluntary organisations are probably not making use of the boards any more because of the state they are in. To the best of my knowledge a small number of people had keys originally, but I have no idea who has them now. I imagine it is going to take a fair amount of time to get all this properly up and running again, and then properly maintained.
    • Alice, you may have nailed one of the issues, which is presumably a key holder who needs to find time to change flyers and so on.   I take on board the issue about free advertising for businesses, but would not put small, very local businesses into the same category as all other businesses. That said, I can see rationale for voluntary and NFP taking precedence, are these organisations actually making use of the boards?
    • The community noticeboards I see are incredibly out of date,  who has the key? anyone step forward?
