Our Fencing Services
At Local Fencing, we specialise in the supply and installation of new boundary fencing in Edgbaston for residential properties of all sizes.

How Much Does New Boundary Fencing Cost?
The cost of new boundary fencing in the UK varies depending on a number of factors, including the length and height of the fence, the type of materials chosen, and the condition of the ground where posts need to be set. As a general guide, homeowners can expect to pay anywhere from £80 to £200 per metre for a fully installed timber fence, with composite or premium materials sitting at the higher end of that range. Labour typically accounts for around 40–50% of the overall cost, so the quality and experience of your installer matters just as much as the materials themselves.
Additional factors such as the removal of an old fence, dealing with uneven terrain, or installing concrete gravel boards can all influence the final price. It’s always worth getting a detailed quote that breaks down materials and labour separately so you can make a fully informed decision. Prices across the Edgbaston area are broadly in line with wider Birmingham rates, though site-specific challenges can affect the total.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need planning permission for new boundary fencing in Edgbaston?
In most cases, you do not need planning permission for boundary fencing in England as long as it does not exceed 2 metres in height (or 1 metre if it borders a road or footpath). However, if your property is in a conservation area or is a listed building, additional restrictions may apply. We always recommend checking with Birmingham City Council if you’re unsure, and we’re happy to advise during your site survey.
How long does it take to install new boundary fencing?
The duration depends on the length of the boundary and the complexity of the installation, but most standard residential jobs in Edgbaston are completed within one to two days. Larger or more complex projects may take a little longer. We’ll give you a realistic timescale when we provide your quote.
What types of fencing do you install?
We install a wide range of fencing styles including close-board, featheredge panel, lap panel, post-and-rail, picket fencing, trellis topping, and composite fencing. We’ll help you choose the best option for your property, budget, and requirements during your free consultation.
Can you remove my old fencing before fitting the new one?
Yes, we offer full removal and disposal of existing fencing as part of our service. This can be included in your quote so there’s no need to arrange separate skip hire or waste removal — we handle everything from start to finish.
Will the fence posts be set in concrete?
For most boundary fencing installations, we use concrete to set fence posts securely in the ground, which provides the best long-term stability. We use a fast-setting post mix that sets quickly and firmly, ensuring your fence remains upright and sturdy even in adverse weather conditions.
Is boundary fencing covered by any guarantee?
Yes, we stand behind the quality of our workmanship. We offer a guarantee on our installation work, and many of the materials we use also carry manufacturer warranties. Full details will be provided with your written quote so you have complete peace of mind.
Who is responsible for boundary fencing — me or my neighbour?
Responsibility for boundary fencing in the UK depends on your property deeds, which typically indicate which boundaries each party is responsible for maintaining. It’s worth checking your deeds or Land Registry title documents before starting work. If you’re unsure, we’re happy to discuss the situation during your site visit and help you plan accordingly.
