What is Feather Edge Fencing?
Feather edge fencing is constructed using vertical timber boards that overlap slightly, creating a solid and continuous fence line.
It typically includes:
- Timber or concrete fence posts
- Horizontal rails
- Feather edge boards fixed vertically
This construction method creates a strong and robust fencing system suitable for a wide range of properties.

Our Feather Edge Fencing Installation Process
Proper installation is essential to ensure your fencing remains secure and long-lasting.
Our process includes:
- Removal of existing fencing (if required)
- Installation of fence posts
- Fixing horizontal rails
- Attaching feather edge boards
- Alignment, levelling and finishing
This ensures a strong and durable fence built to last.
Fence Post Installation and Ground Preparation
The strength of feather edge fencing depends heavily on the posts and groundwork.
We ensure:
- Proper depth and spacing of posts
- Secure fixing using concrete where required
- Accurate alignment and levelling
- Strong foundations for long-term stability
Without proper groundwork, fencing can weaken over time, which is why we prioritise this stage.
