Fence Repair

Hi, I am sure I am not the only person looking for someone to repair a fence at the moment!Can anyone recommend someone who can repair a fence? It is currently still upright, but moving significantly in the wind, so keen to get it repaired - think new concrete posts needed. Thanks so much!

The last fence repair I had done was in November 2020.  I used David from Chiswick Fencing, and would certainly use him again.  chiswickfencing.com  07961 855236

If you  are going to put a new fence in now is a good time to consider this:Have you heard about Hedgehog Highways?The hedgehog has been voted Britain's favourite mammal but they are in the decline and replacing a fence is a good time to think about making it easier for them to move from garden to garden.https://www.britishhedgehogs.org.uk/https://www.hedgehogstreet.org/help-hedgehogs/link-your-garden/It's a long while since I had my new fence.  Good luck with yours.

Thanks - I am hoping it just needs a fix rather than a new fence, but that's a brilliant initiative. Thanks for sharing!

I had a very bad experience with a local firm which took up a lot of my time and caused a lot of stress - won't name them publicly.  They 'fixed' my back fence but so I couldn't open the gate in the fence and then said they thought I didn't use it much so it didn't matter.  Fortunately they reduced their bill substantially so I was able to pay someone else for their botched job and that person fixed it quickly and efficiently.  PM me if you want to know more.

Good idea unless you have a catproofed garden :)
