A fence does far more than mark the edge of your property. It keeps children and pets safe, gives you privacy from neighbours and passers-by, and protects your home from unwanted visitors. When a fence is poorly built or starts to fail, all of that is lost. Panels blow down in strong winds, gaps appear along the bottom, and your garden no longer feels like the private, secure space it should be.
At Prestige Roofing Ltd, we provide professional fence installation inDurham, built to stand strong through every season. Our groundworks team sets every post securely and installs each fence with care, giving you a sturdy, attractive boundary that protects your home and lasts for years.
An old fence that’s leaning, rotting or missing panels makes your whole garden look neglected. Propping it up or swapping out the odd panel rarely solves the problem, because the real issue is often rotten or loose posts underneath. Every storm makes things worse, and a collapsing fence can damage plants, cars and property, or leave your garden open to anyone.
Our fence replacement service deals with the problem properly. We take down and remove your old fence, dig out failed posts and install a completely new fence on solid foundations. You get a straight, secure boundary that looks smart and won’t need constant repairs.
The right fence should suit your home as well as protect it. A fence that’s too low won’t give you the privacy you need, while one that doesn’t match the style of your property can make your garden feel closed in or out of place. Choosing without expert advice can leave you with a fence you’re never quite happy with.
We’ll help you choose garden fencing that fits your space, your budget and the look you want. Whether you need a tall privacy fence, a decorative boundary for the front of your home or a practical fence to keep pets safe, we’ll recommend the right height, style and finish. We can also add matching garden gates and trellis to complete the look.

Most fences fail at the posts, not the panels. When posts are set too shallow or without proper concrete, they soon start to lean, wobble and rot at ground level. Once that happens, strong winds can easily push the whole fence over, and you’re left paying to replace it far sooner than you should.
Because groundwork is our specialty, we give every fence post the foundation it needs. We dig each post hole to the correct depth, set posts firmly in concrete and make sure every line is straight and level. Where suitable, we use concrete posts and gravel boards to keep timber off the ground, protecting your fence from damp and rot and helping it last much longer.
Finding fencing contractors you can rely on isn’t always easy. Some rush the job to offer a cheaper price, and the shortcuts only show months later when posts start to lean and panels come loose.

Most fence installations for an average-sized garden are completed within one to two days. Larger gardens, longer boundaries or jobs that involve removing an old fence and digging out old posts may take a little longer. We’ll give you a clear timeframe in your quote so you know exactly what to expect.
Yes. As part of our fence replacement service, we take down your old fence, dig out the old posts and concrete, and take away all waste. This leaves a clean, clear boundary ready for your new fence to be installed on solid foundations.
A professionally installed fence can last for many years, depending on the materials used, the weather it’s exposed to and how well it’s maintained. Setting posts properly in concrete and using gravel boards to keep timber off the ground makes a big difference, as it protects the fence from damp and rot.
There’s no legal rule in the UK that says which side must face your neighbour. However, it’s common practice and considered good manners to have the smooth, finished side facing outwards, with the posts and rails on your side. This also makes it easier for you to maintain the fence from your own garden.
