Fencing in Tonbridge
onbridge is the Medway valley — generous 1930s plots through Higham Wood, larger Victorian gardens nearer the town centre, and newer detached estates pushing out through Hildenborough and Hadlow. The valley clay through TN9/TN10 is heavy and seasonal — concrete posts are our default on anything 6ft and over here. Plots tend to be bigger than the Sevenoaks average, with 25-35m back boundaries common.
What Tonbridge throws at a fence
Your estimate is free. If you later want us out to confirm a fixed price, the survey fee is £120 — TN9 through TN12 sit in the Extended drive-time tier (about 80-90 minutes from us via the M25 and A21). Most Tonbridge plots have decent driveway access; the older Hildenborough lanes sometimes need careful materials handling. Comes off your job price if you go ahead.
Most Tonbridge 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.

Hit-and-miss perimeter
Common on the larger Hildenborough and Hadlow plots — same look both sides keeps the neighbour conversation short.

Driveway timber gates
Frequent companion to a perimeter refit on the wider Hildenborough drives.

Why Tonbridge homeowners pick us over a random trade.
One company, end to end
GoodFence is a small London fencing company. We survey every Tonbridge 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 Tonbridge ground
Chalk in the north, Wealden clay in the south, and ragstone close to the surface around Sevenoaks. Chalk and stone both slow the digging; the Weald holds water, which is what rots a timber post at ground level. Concrete posts on exposed runs, pressure-treated rails, proper feather-edge — we spec the bits that decide how long it lasts.
Access gets planned before the van loads. Narrow side returns and through-the-house carries are normal in Tonbridge, and they are costed in, not sprung on you.
