Fencing in Dulwich Village: Homeowners vs renters

For homeowners:

You’re generally responsible for fences on your property boundary. In the UK, fences in back gardens can be up to 2 metres high without planning permission. Front garden fences are usually limited to 1 metre unless you apply for permission. Always check your deeds or speak with your local planning office if unsure.

For renters:

Responsibility usually falls to the landlord, unless your tenancy agreement says otherwise. If a fence or gate is damaged, report it to your landlord or letting agent, as they will decide on repairs or replacements. You can still suggest using a local fencing contractor via Checkatrade if you want things moving faster.

Emergency fencing in Dulwich Village

Strong winds, storm damage, or even break-ins can leave you with broken panels, leaning posts, or gates that won’t close properly.

Urgent jobs often include:

  • Replacing panels blown down in storms
  • Fixing broken gates that won’t lock
  • Emergency security fencing for unsafe perimeters

  • How much is fencing per metre in the UK?

    Expect to pay £14 - £30 per metre for standard fencing. Composite and vinyl options cost more.

  • What are typical labour costs for fencing in the UK?

    Around £150 per day or £10 - £15 per hour for a fencing contractor, depending on the complexity of the job.

  • Do I need planning permission for a fence?

    Not usually, unless the fence is higher than 2 metres (rear garden) or 1 metre (front garden by a road). Check with your local planning office for restrictions in conservation areas or listed buildings.

  • Who owns the fence between neighbours?

    Check your property deeds. If unclear, ownership is usually established by who has the posts on their side. Our fence ownership guide explains more.

  • How much does composite fencing cost in the UK?

    Composite panels typically cost £50 - £100 each, plus posts and labour. They last longer and need less maintenance than timber.

  • Can I get supply and fit fencing near me?

    Yes. Many fencing contractors in Dulwich Village will both supply materials and fit them as part of a complete service.

  • What if I only need a small fence repair?

    Fence repairs start from £18 for a single post, with full replacements running into the thousands. Always compare quotes to make sure you’re paying a fair price.

  • What’s the cheapest type of fencing in the UK?

    Chain link and basic lap panel fencing are usually the cheapest. Expect around £14 per metre for chain link, or £40 per panel for timber lap fencing.

  • How long should a garden fence last?

    With regular care, a wooden fence can last 10 - 15 years. Composite and vinyl fences often last 20 years or more with minimal maintenance.

  • What’s included in fencing labour prices?

    Labour covers digging post holes, setting posts in concrete, fitting panels or rails, and disposing of old materials. Always check if waste removal is included in your quote.

  • Can I paint or stain a new fence straight away?

    Not usually. Fresh timber should weather for at least 6 - 8 weeks before staining or painting, otherwise the treatment may not soak in properly.

  • Are electric gates worth the cost?

    Electric gates add security, convenience, and kerb appeal. They cost £2,000 - £5,000+ depending on size and automation features. Many homeowners find the added safety and ease of use worth the investment.
