Feather Edge Fencing in Haslemere

Feather edge fencing, often called closeboard fencing, is built in place rather than dropped in as ready-made panels. Vertical feather edge boards are fixed to arris rails running between the posts, overlapping each other to create a solid, continuous face.

That construction is what makes it so durable. There are no thin panel frames to twist in the wind, and individual boards can be replaced later without dismantling a whole section.

Because featheredge fencing is made on site, it follows sloping and uneven ground far better than panels, which is useful across many Haslemere gardens. Heights can be set to suit the boundary rather than fixed panel sizes.

We usually recommend concrete or pressure treated posts with gravel boards at the base, keeping the timber clear of wet ground, plus a capping rail to shed rain off the top of the boards.

Feather edge is the natural choice where you want a private garden, a secure boundary and a smart, uniform finish. It suits both period Haslemere properties and newer homes, and takes stain or preservative well if you want to change the colour later.

Our feather edge fencing services in Haslemere cover new installations, full replacements and repairs to existing closeboard boundaries. We will walk the boundary with you, check ground conditions and access, and give you a clear written quote after the visit.
