Let us know what you need and we will share your request with fencing contractors who work across Wearside.
Seafront winds and Wearside estates
Homes near the coast face salt air and strong winds, so heavier fencing and galvanised fixings are essential. Many seafront properties choose slatted designs that let the wind pass through.
Washington was built as a new town in the 1960s, with estates grouped into numbered villages. Many of their original fences are due for replacement, and concrete posts are the usual upgrade.

Fence height and planning rules in England

Fencing in Sunderland: your questions answered
What fixings should be used near the sea?
Galvanised or stainless steel fixings resist corrosion from salt air much better than standard steel. Ask your contractor what they use.
How long do fences last in Washington's estates?
Original developer fences often last 15–25 years. When posts start to lean or rot, replacing them with concrete is the best long-term fix.
