Feather edge fencing in Ashford.
Individual tapered boards create a traditional fence with a robust appearance.
Plan the boundary and installation
Tell us the length, height and purpose of the fence, along with the condition of any existing posts. We can assess ground conditions, access and exposure before recommending materials and an installation approach.
Secure posts, suitable fixings and a careful finish make a practical difference. For commercial or security projects, the required specification should be confirmed for the particular site.
Individual boards and the finished boundary
Feather edge boards taper and overlap to form a traditional screened boundary, often as part of closeboard fencing. Specify the whole construction, including posts, rails and lower protection, rather than comparing the board name alone.
The layout should account for slopes, corners and gates. Ask how the top line will be finished and how the timber will be cared for. Individual damaged boards may be repairable, but decayed rails or unstable posts can make a wider repair necessary.
Your Ashford site: access and layout
If your project involves a family garden where seating, play and privacy share the space, start with the practical arrangement rather than the finish alone. Trace the actual boundary and identify the privacy gap before choosing a fence style. Show us gates, changes in ground level and any posts that move; these details determine whether repairs or a complete run make sense.
For a new-build or recently altered plot, show any construction debris, uneven ground or features still to be completed. The preparation should follow what is actually beneath the surface. An existing plan is helpful, but we also need to assess the current condition.
Questions before you book
What should I send for a quotation?
Send your postcode, approximate dimensions, photographs of the current area and a description of the work. Include access restrictions and any damage or water problems. The installation scope can then be discussed and checked on site where needed.
Planning your feather edge fencing project
Can you keep my existing fence posts?
They may be retained if their condition, stability and dimensions suit the replacement. Show the whole run as well as the damaged section so the quote can distinguish reusable supports from parts needing replacement.
What information is needed to quote for fencing?
Send the length, approximate height, preferred style and photos of both ends and any corners. Include gate openings, sloping ground and access restrictions. Confirm the boundary line and ownership before removal.

View this project →Agree the complete boundary arrangement
Measure the run in sections, including gates and changes in ground level. Specify the height and components rather than only requesting a panel count. Confirm how the fence meets existing walls, sheds and the next retained section, and whether access is available from both sides.
Compare the proposed style with privacy, appearance and maintenance priorities. Where the boundary is exposed, discuss suitability of the supports and fixings. Identify retained planting and any surface reinstatement around post work. Resolve ownership and working access before removal begins.
What the complete Ashford quotation should cover
Use the same agreed scope when comparing proposals. Confirm the materials and work below the visible finish, together with any retained construction. Ask how exclusions or provisional work will be handled and keep the written specification with the quotation.
- Measured length, height, style and component specification
- Posts, foundations, rails, fixings and gravel boards
- Gate openings, posts, hinges, latches and clearances
- Removal of the old fence and waste handling
- Stepped-ground details, retained sections and site protection
- Reinstatement, VAT, exclusions and agreed work access
Photographs, dimensions and access details help define the work. They can start the discussion, with a visit or further assessment where needed. A quoted total is useful when it is clear what the finished result includes.
From the first enquiry to handover
- Photograph the full run and confirm boundary arrangements.
- Choose the fence system, gate details and suitable support.
- Plan protection and manage openings during removal.
- Install posts, boards or panels and gates to the agreed construction.
- Check operation and receive maintenance advice for the materials.
Agree the programme after the scope and materials are confirmed. Include delivery arrangements, protection of retained features and any periods when the area cannot be used. At handover, confirm how the completed work should be used and cared for, and retain the relevant product details.
