Woodland Closeboard fence install with wooden posts

Closeboard Fence Install in Hungerford – 2 Days

Our clients in Hungerford needed a sturdy boundary fence that would withstand the elements and look the part for years to come. They'd chosen closeboard design and wanted the job done properly from the ground up.

What we did

• Set mortised posts into the ground using Postmix, ensuring they were level and solid enough to carry the full weight of the fence.
• Fitted arris rails between the posts to form the horizontal frame that would hold everything together.
• Installed gravel boards at the base to protect the timber from ground moisture and rot.
• Fixed feather edge boards vertically, overlapping them slightly so water runs off cleanly – a traditional technique that works.
• Used pressure-treated timber throughout to give the fence real longevity, especially important in the Hungerford area's weather.

We completed the closeboard fence install across the RG17 postcode in just two days on site. The result is a solid, professional-looking boundary in Hungerford that'll stand firm and weather well. The combination of pressure-treated timber and proper gravel board detail means it'll resist rot where it matters most.

A well-built fence is something you notice by how little it demands of you.
