Fencing in Guildford

uildford plots run larger than London. Boundary runs out here are typically 25–40 metres — Burpham, Merrow, Worplesdon, Wood Street Village. The Surrey downs are chalky and free-draining on the ridges but heavy clay in the valleys, so the right post spec depends on which side of the A3 you're on. Onslow Village has conservation rules on street-visible boundaries — we factor that into the spec before quoting.

What Guildford throws at a fence

Access is usually generous here — driveways, side gates wide enough for a wheelbarrow, room to stack materials. Your estimate is free; if you later want us out to confirm a fixed price, the survey fee is £120 (Extended tier — GU is ~75 minutes from us in light traffic). Comes off your job price if you go ahead. We batch Guildford jobs where we can so the visit is efficient.

Most Guildford jobs are one of two things: a new fence installation where there's nothing there yet, or a full fence replacement of a boundary that's come to the end of its life.

Most-requested fences in Guildford.

  • 01

    Hit-and-miss panels

    Most popular on longer Surrey boundary runs — looks the same both sides, no neighbour negotiation about which way it faces.

  • 02

    Closeboard with concrete posts

    Default for exposed western elevations and clay-heavy valleys around Shalford and Compton.

  • 03

    Slatted contemporary

    What we fit on newer extensions in Onslow Village and Stoughton — modern look, still solid privacy at 6ft.

Taking the old fence away is an optional extra you choose on the estimate form — it's priced separately and isn't in the figures above. Minimum job £1,200.

Access is usually generous here — driveways, side gates wide enough for a wheelbarrow, room to stack materials.

Why Guildford homeowners pick us over a random trade.

One company, end to end

GoodFence is a small London fencing company. We survey every Guildford job, price it, fit it with our own team and stand behind it ourselves. One contract, one number, one company on the hook — not a directory, not a stranger off a phonebook.

Fixed price, no day-of surprises

The price you sign off doesn't move unless the ground itself tells us otherwise — and if it does, we put any change in writing before we touch a tool. One quote, one number to call.

Specced for Guildford ground

Free-draining sand and greensand around Woking and Guildford, heavier London clay towards Epsom and Esher, and plenty of mature root systems on the wooded plots. Sandy ground digs quickly but wants a deeper set on tall panels. Concrete posts on exposed runs, pressure-treated rails, proper feather-edge — we spec the bits that decide how long it lasts.

No fence leaves us leaning. Posts plumb, gaps even, caps on, site swept — that is the finish we hold to on every Guildford boundary.
