How we build metal fencing in Hitchin
Galvanised steel, powder-coated bar-and-rail or estate railings. Standard build: 1.8m bow-top or estate railings, 40mm SHS posts, concrete-set at 750mm. On Hitchin jobs we adjust for hitchin's conservation areas mean the planning team checks anything visible from the street.
Property mix locally: market-town centre with Tudor and Georgian buildings, Victorian terraces on the Walsworth side, and 1930s semis to the west. Typical gardens: varied — small courtyards in the centre, deep rear gardens in Walsworth, sloping plots toward Walsworth Common. Postcodes we regularly service: SG4, SG5.
