Why We Are the Better Choice as Fencing Contractors

A long-lasting fence depends on more than timber and nails; it depends on knowing the land. We understand root systems, soil density, ground movement, moisture, and wind-load. These elements directly affect the lifespan of any garden boundary.

That’s why our fencing installations are engineered to stay upright, resist rot, and withstand Glasgow weather. We set posts deeper, stabilise bases correctly, consider water flow, and build structures that remain rigid year after year. It’s a level of attention that typical fencing contractors often overlook.

Our tree care specialists are always available to answer your questions and give you as much help as they can.

Complete Boundary Solutions for Glasgow Gardens

Structural Timber Fencing Systems

We install robust timber fencing designed to handle the Scottish climate and provide long-term privacy. Instead of a “one-style-fits-all” approach, we specify fence types based on your garden’s layout, wind exposure, and soil strength.

Options include:

  • Vertical privacy panels
  • Modern horizontal battens
  • Traditional closeboard fencing
  • Acoustic timber screens
  • Decorative garden edges
  • Picket and low-frontage fencing

Every fence is built with pressure-treated timber, proper drainage spacing, and stable foundations to minimise movement over time.

Living Hedge Barriers & Green Privacy Walls

Hedge fencing is ideal if you want a greener, softer, and more natural boundary. It also provides excellent privacy once established and supports wildlife in your garden.

We offer:

  • Dense evergreen hedging
  • Fast-growing privacy species
  • Mixed-species hedge design
  • Layered hedge systems for thick coverage

Our team handles:

  • Soil preparation
  • Root spacing
  • Long-term growth planning
  • Shaping and training routines

A living hedge can outperform timber fencing in privacy, noise reduction, and appearance, especially when planted correctly.

Hybrid Boundary Systems (Timber + Hedge)

For homeowners who want the strength of timber and the softness of greenery, we create combined fencing systems. These may include:

  • A low timber base with a tall hedge screen
  • Timber posts supporting a hedge line
  • Decorative fencing paired with evergreen privacy planting

Fence Restoration & Structural Reinforcement

Over time, fences shift, rot, or weaken. Instead of replacing everything, we offer targeted structural repairs, including:

  • Post re-setting
  • Alignment correction
  • Panel reinforcement
  • Rot-resistant base installation
  • Wind-damage stabilisation
  • Replacement of deteriorated rails or supports

We assess the cause of the instability, soil movement, root pressure, moisture, or shallow foundations, and repair the fence so it stays secure.

Security & Controlled-Access Fencing

For properties needing stronger protection or added privacy, we provide:

  • Tall timber privacy screens
  • High-density fences
  • Reinforced panel systems
  • Dense evergreen hedge screens
  • Pet-safe and child-safe garden boundaries

Choosing the Right Boundary Type for Your Garden

Different gardens require different fencing solutions. We help you compare your options based on:

Timber Fencing

  • Strong privacy
  • Defines boundary clearly
  • Low maintenance
  • Works well on uneven ground
  • Higher upfront cost than hedging
  • Ideal for tight spaces

Hedge Fencing

  • Natural green privacy
  • Excellent noise reduction
  • Eco-friendly and wildlife-friendly
  • Requires ongoing shaping
  • Long-term, cost-effective option
  • Softer visual appeal

Hybrid Fencing

  • Best of both worlds
  • Strong structure with natural finish
  • Good for windy areas
  • Highly customisable
  • Premium look and feel

Instead of pushing one type, we simply recommend the boundary that suits your garden’s conditions and your preferred level of maintenance.

Material Quality & Installation Standards

We build fencing to survive the Glasgow climate, heavy rain, soft soil, winter winds, and uneven terrain. Our installation method includes:

  • Pressure-treated UK timber for durability
  • Deep-set foundation posts for maximum stability
  • Anti-rot base clearance to prevent moisture damage
  • Accurate spacing for drainage and airflow
  • Wind-exposure mapping for tall structures
  • Soil analysis before digging
  • Root mapping if nearby trees or hedges are present

For hedge fencing, we ensure:

  • Proper planting depth
  • Correct species selection
  • Adequate spacing for future growth
  • Soil conditioning & composting
  • Watering guides for early establishment

Everything is built or planted with longevity in mind.

Our Installation Approach

Stage 1 – Boundary Condition Survey

We inspect soil, nearby roots, drainage patterns, existing boundaries, and ground level changes.

Stage 2 – Design & Planning

We help you choose between timber, hedge fencing, or a hybrid system. Materials and layout are finalised based on your garden’s needs.

Stage 3 – Ground Preparation

Clearing, levelling, root identification, and preparing post foundations or hedge trenches.

Stage 4 – Build or Planting Phase

Posts are set, panels installed, or hedges planted with correct spacing and soil preparation. Everything is aligned, level, and stabilised.

Stage 5 – Aftercare & Stabilisation Checks

We give guidance on hedge growth, watering routines, timber care, and long-term maintenance.

This structured approach ensures your boundary stays strong, straight, and in excellent condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

What fencing lasts longest in Glasgow's wet climate?

Pressure-treated timber or evergreen hedging both perform well. The right choice depends on exposure and soil conditions.

Can you install fencing if there are tree roots nearby?

Yes. As arborists, we specialise in working around roots without harming trees or weakening the fence.

Are hedge boundaries effective for noise reduction?

Absolutely, dense evergreen hedges can outperform fences in sound absorption.

Can fencing be installed on sloped or uneven ground?

Yes. We adjust post heights and panel layout for secure installation on slopes.

Do hybrid hedge-timber systems require extra maintenance?

Not necessarily. The hedge requires shaping, but the timber portion remains low-maintenance.

Do you supply all materials?

Yes, including timber, hedge plants, fixings, and structural components.
