Services
Fencing
We supply and install tanalised timber fencing using timber or concrete posts for secure, aesthetically pleasing boundaries. Our fencing solutions are designed to meet individual requirements, whether for residential privacy or commercial security. All installations use pressure-treated timber and galvanised fixings to ensure longevity and resilience against weather conditions.
Decking
Our timber decking installations create durable outdoor spaces for entertaining or relaxation. We design and build raised or ground-level decks with options for built-in lighting, planters, and balustrades. Using high-quality materials and solid foundations, we ensure long-lasting performance even in the North East's variable climate.
Gates
We manufacture and fit made-to-measure gates to match existing fencing, including decorative or security-focused designs. Our gates are constructed from treated timber with galvanised hardware for durability. We also offer repairs and maintenance for existing gate installations.
Decorative Structures
We create bespoke pergolas, arbours, and decorative fencing panels to enhance garden aesthetics. These structures are crafted from treated timber to withstand outdoor conditions while adding visual interest to gardens. Each design is tailored to complement the client's property and landscaping.
Commercial Fencing
We provide fencing solutions for schools, factories, care homes, and businesses, including barriers and restricted-access systems. Our commercial installations prioritise security and durability, using the same high-quality materials as our domestic projects. We work closely with organisations to meet specific safety and compliance requirements.
