Typical landlord-grade fencing briefs in Cheshunt
- → boundary run replaced between two tenancies inside a single working week
- → cheapest defensible spec that will still stand up to the next storm and inventory
Why this spec, for buy-to-let owners and letting agents

- one crew, one price sheet across multiple properties — inventory-friendly for portfolio owners
How we build landlord-grade fencing in Cheshunt
6ft closeboard on concrete posts with gravel boards, mid-rail capped, softwood side gate with padlock hasp. On Cheshunt jobs we adjust for ground water near the lee valley means post bases need extra care to prevent rot.
Property mix locally: mid-century semis and bungalows, plus newer riverside developments toward Goffs Oak. Typical gardens: long flat gardens — many back onto the Lee Valley with high-water-table conditions. Postcodes we regularly service: EN7, EN8.
we bill via one purchase order across a portfolio, provide before/after photos for the inventory clerk, and can be on and off site inside a tenancy void.
Where landlord-grade fencing isn't the right answer
- — listed buildings and conservation frontages where painted picket or estate railings are the only compliant option
- — commercial forecourts needing bar-and-rail or palisade rather than domestic-grade timber
