Garden Fencing in Enfield
Free garden fencing quotes in Enfield, Palmers Green, Winchmore Hill and Edmonton. Fence panels, closeboard, repairs and gates from local contractors.
Suburban gardens on the edge of the Green Belt
Homes near Forty Hill, Crews Hill and Botany Bay back onto open land, so boundaries there face more wind and wildlife than those in the middle of the borough. Sturdy closeboard or heavy-duty panels on concrete posts are the common choice, sometimes with a mesh base to keep out foxes and rabbits.
Closer to the A10 and the North Circular, privacy is the priority. Taller fences with trellis tops and climbers are popular where gardens are overlooked by neighbouring houses.
Enfield sits at the top of London, where the suburbs meet the Green Belt. Palmers Green, Winchmore Hill and Enfield Town are full of 1920s and 1930s semis with decent-sized back gardens, while Edmonton and Ponders End have more terraced streets and newer estates.
A lot of fencing in these suburbs dates from the same era as the houses or was last replaced decades ago. If yours is leaning, patched or simply tired, we can help you get quotes from local fencing contractors to put it right.

What local fencing contractors in Enfield can do
Before you build: the rules in England
You won't normally need planning permission in England for a fence of up to 2 metres, or 1 metre alongside a road used by vehicles, unless the property is listed or permitted development rights have been removed. More on fence height and boundaries.
Why fencing quotes vary around Enfield
Beyond the style and length of fence, a few things specific to Enfield can push a quote up or down:
- Length of run: many Enfield semis have gardens of 25 metres or more.
- Old footings: previous fences often leave concrete lumps that need breaking out.
- Choice of post: concrete posts cost a little more initially but reduce future repair bills.

Questions about fencing in Enfield
How much does it cost to fence a long back garden in Enfield?
It depends on the style and length, but most fencing is priced per metre. A typical panel fence with concrete posts and gravel boards falls within UK ranges of roughly £90–£150 per metre, with closeboard costing more. Local quotes will give you an exact figure.
Can I get a fence that keeps foxes out?
A solid fence with gravel boards helps, and some contractors add buried mesh along the bottom. Mention it when you request quotes so installers can price it in.
