Fencing Contractor in Clitheroe — Fair Prices

I’ve been out on the tools for over ten years now, and if there’s one thing I know, it’s that Lancashire weather doesn't play games. I was up in Clitheroe last week checking on a fence we put up a few years back, and it’s still standing dead straight despite the wind that rips through the valley. That’s the thing about a proper fence; it isn't just about sticking posts in the ground. It’s about knowing the ground and knowing the wood.

Getting the job done right

People often ask me why their old panels started rotting within a couple of years. It’s usually because they’ve bought the cheap stuff from the big DIY stores. That wood is often barely treated and thin as cardboard. When the rain hits, it just soaks it up like a sponge. We use heavy-duty, pressure-treated timber because we want the job to last. I’d rather spend an extra hour making sure the posts are set deep in concrete than have a customer ringing me up eighteen months later because their fence has blown over in a storm.

I remember a lad named Dave over in Clitheroe who had a right nightmare with his back garden. He’d tried to do it himself, but he’d used shallow holes and the posts were wobbling after the first frost. I went round, pulled the lot out, and we put in some sturdy close-board fencing that’ll see him out. He was chuffed to bits with it, and honestly, that’s the best part of the job for me. Seeing a garden sorted out properly so you can actually sit out in it without worrying about the panels is a good feeling.

No nonsense pricing

I don't do fancy sales talk. I’m a fencing contractor, not a politician. When I come to see you, I look at the lie of the land. Are there rocks in the ground? Is there a slope to deal with? That all matters. I’ll give you a price that covers the materials and the time it takes to do it right, and that’s the price you pay. I won’t come back asking for more halfway through because I misjudged the digging. I pride myself on being sound, and I think most folks round here appreciate that.

Most jobs take a couple of days, depending on how much clearing needs doing. If we’re replacing an old run, it takes a bit of time to rip out the old rotting timber and get the debris away. We tidy up after ourselves, too. There’s nothing worse than having a new fence put up and being left with a pile of old wood and rubble in the middle of your lawn. We leave it clean, job done.
