Close Board Fencing Upgrade in Colchester

A sunny backyard featuring a new wooden fence, a large tree dominating the space, and a wheelbarrow next to the fence on a paved area, with residential buildings in the background.

Project Overview

Fencing Colchester recently had the privilege of enhancing a beautiful private property in Colchester with our high-quality fencing solutions. The project involved installing new close board fence panels complemented by slotted concrete posts and recessed concrete gravel boards, specifically designed with a future vision for adding trellis.


Initial Consultation and Design

Our journey began with a detailed consultation with the client to understand their needs and preferences. Emphasizing our commitment to both aesthetics and functionality, we proposed the use of close board panels for their durability and classic appearance, alongside robust concrete components for longevity.


Preparation and Installation

Upon agreement on the design, our skilled team embarked on the site preparation, which involved clearing the designated area and ensuring a level base to work from. The installation of slotted concrete posts followed, set deeply into the ground to secure the structure effectively.

The close board panels were meticulously positioned within the slots of the concrete posts, ensuring a seamless fit. A recessed concrete gravel board was added at the bottom to prevent soil contact with the wooden panels, thereby extending their life.


Customization for Future Enhancements

In line with the client's potential interest in integrating trellis, we left a 300mm tall gap at the top of the fence. This thoughtful customization allows for easy addition of trellis, catering to future landscaping or privacy enhancements.


Final Touches and Client Walkthrough

With the installation complete, our team performed a thorough cleanup, leaving the site immaculate. We conducted a final walkthrough with the client to ensure their complete satisfaction with both the functionality and the aesthetic of the new fencing. The client appreciated the forethought regarding the possibility of adding trellis, which offers them flexibility in future garden planning.


Conclusion

This project not only provided a robust and beautiful boundary solution but also enhanced the overall value and appeal of the property. At Fencing Colchester, we take pride in delivering meticulous craftsmanship and thoughtful designs that resonate well with our client's visions.
