Especially when terrible weather means fences being blown over!

We’ve recently seen a big spike in interest for jobs with fencing and gates in London. If you’re based in the capital, why not make use of those searches?

In 2024, we saw over 458,000 people looking for fencing jobs through our website.* So… what do you think about a Checkatrade membership now?

How does it work for fencing companies?

At Checkatrade, our mission is to put people in touch with trusted tradespeople when they need work doing.

Why fence installers like you join Checkatrade

If you specialise in fencing work, or you carry out other related jobs such as landscaping, gardening or shed fitting, you still need a good supply of leads coming your way.

Winning the right jobs is so important as a fence installer. Wouldn’t you rather have more fencing leads to you, instead of someone else?

We always see a good volume of searches for all manner of fencing jobs. Like in 2024, when we saw high interest with over 458,000 fencing searches.* Sound like something that could help you?

We’ve also recently seen a rise in searches specifically in London. So whether you’re based in Twickenham, Barking, Wimbledon or Walthamstow, this could be the time to take the next step.

Let us tell you about some other reasons to consider as well:

Boost your reputation

People have expectations when they need a job done. The Checkatrade tick is a sign of trust, and our members can use our logo and materials. There is also the option of an online member profile. Get it right and it can do wonders for you too.

Get your name out there

With your online profile optimised, you can be found by more people when they’re searching. With some SEO wizardry on our part, people that need fencing work will be able to find you a whole lot easier.

With your marketing and profile in place, you’ll start to see more job leads for your fencing or landscaping business. No matter what size your setup. Sound good?

Manage jobs with ease

With emergency fencing jobs, most people want them doing quickly. When there’s been a storm, you’re likely to get more calls and queries. That’s when rapid responses are key. With the Checkatrade Trades app, you can do just that.

You have a higher chance of winning the job when the app’s notifications are turned on and you get back to the customer straight away,

Quote and invoice at the press of a button

Let’s be honest, no one really enjoys admin. So we’ve put together our quoting and invoicing tool that we think can save you an estimated 2.5 hours of admin per week.

Grab exclusive offers and discounts

Thanks to our partnerships, you could be saving on the cost of your business essentials. Through your membership, you can claim offers and discounts on a range of things including fuel, insurance, workwear, and tools.

Enjoy a special welcome gift
