Fencing in Blackpool

Get free fencing quotes in Blackpool, Bispham, Marton, Cleveleys and Poulton-le-Fylde. Storm-resistant garden fencing, repairs and gates.

Blackpool's seafront is famous for its illuminations, but for homeowners it is the wind off the Irish Sea that makes the headlines. Fences on the Fylde coast get a tough time every winter.

Whether you need a storm-damaged fence repaired or a completely new boundary, we can help you compare quotes from local contractors.

Coastal winds and bungalow gardens

Bispham, Cleveleys and parts of South Shore are full of bungalows and semis with wide gardens facing the prevailing wind. Heavier panels, concrete posts and slatted designs perform far better than lightweight panels on timber posts.

Many former guest houses and terraced homes nearer the centre have small yards, where durable fencing and secure gates are the main needs.

What affects fencing prices in Blackpool

Fencing contractors in Blackpool normally price a job after a visit or a look at photos. These are the local factors that tend to move the price:

  • Exposed coastal gardens need heavier panels, concrete posts and galvanised fixings.
  • After storms, demand for fencing contractors along the Fylde coast rises sharply.
  • Wide bungalow plots in Bispham and Cleveleys mean long side boundaries.

Fence height and planning rules in England

In England, a garden fence or gate up to 2 metres high usually doesn't need planning permission, falling to 1 metre next to a road used by vehicles. Listed buildings, some conservation areas and estates with restricted rights are the main exceptions. More on fence height and boundaries.

Fencing in Blackpool: your questions answered

How can I stop my fence blowing down in Blackpool?

Use concrete posts set deep in solid concrete, choose heavier or slatted panels, and fit galvanised fixings. Your contractor can suggest the best option for your garden.

Is composite or metal fencing worth it on the Fylde coast?

They cost more upfront but won't rot, and many designs cope well with salt air. For most homeowners, good timber on concrete posts is still the best-value option; composite and aluminium suit those who want minimal maintenance.
