• Businesses – Define outdoor seating, smoking areas or storage yards clearly and safely.
• Students – Make small yards and terraces more private and secure, often using cost-conscious solutions.

Types of Fencing We Offer

We cover most common garden fencing styles in Soho, including:

• Standard panel fencing – Overlap, close-board and featheredge panels for straightforward boundaries.

We are happy to advise on materials, height and layout so that the fence complies with local regulations and works practically for you and your neighbours.

What’s Not Included as Standard

To keep our pricing clear and fair, some items are classed as optional extras:

• Decorative painting, staining or specialist finishes (available on request).

We will always state clearly in your quote what is included and what is not, so there are no surprises on the day.

Our Step‑by‑Step Fencing Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You can contact Gardeners Soho by phone, email or online form. We will ask for a brief description of your fence, the length required, and any photos you can share. For straightforward panel replacements, we can often provide a guide price at this stage.

Once we understand the scope, we issue a clear, itemised quotation showing labour, materials and any waste removal charges. There is no obligation to proceed until you are completely happy with the plan.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For most fencing work in Soho, we recommend a short survey. This can be:

• Virtual survey – You share photos, measurements and a brief video call walk-through, ideal for simple runs in accessible gardens.
• Onsite survey – We attend in person, assess access, levels, existing plants and structures, and confirm the exact run of the fence.

After the survey, we update the quote if necessary and agree a start date that works around you and your neighbours.

Transparent Fencing Pricing in Soho

Fencing costs depend mainly on the length of the fence, the type of panels, the number of posts, and the access to your garden. We price most fencing work on a fixed quotation rather than hourly rates, so you know the total cost before we start.

Your quote will set out:

• Material costs (panels, posts, concrete, fixings).
• Labour for removal and installation.
• Waste disposal, if we are taking old fencing away.
• Any optional extras you have chosen.

We do not add hidden charges, and any changes you request during the job are always priced and agreed before we continue.

Why Use Professional Gardeners for Fencing Instead of DIY?

Fencing looks straightforward, but achieving a straight, solid and long‑lasting run is harder than it appears. Using professional gardeners gives you several advantages:

• Accurate levelling and alignment, even on sloping or uneven ground.
• Correct post depths and concrete setting for stability in bad weather.
• Safe handling of heavy panels and tools in tight urban gardens.
• Experience working around existing plants, lawns and patios without unnecessary damage.
• Advice on how the new fence will work with ongoing hedge trimming, garden maintenance and lawn mowing.

Most clients find that a professionally installed fence lasts longer, looks better and avoids the frustration of repeated DIY repairs.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Gardeners Soho operates to high safety and quality standards for all fencing projects. We are fully covered by:

• Goods in transit insurance – Your materials and any items we move for access are protected while in our care.
• Public liability cover – Protection in the unlikely event of accidental damage to property or injury during our work.

Our team follows safe working practices, uses appropriate PPE and ensures neighbours, pets and passers‑by are considered while we work.

Caring, Protective and Sustainable Approach

As local gardeners, we are committed to a careful and sustainable approach:

• We protect existing lawns, beds and patios with boards and sheeting where needed.
• We minimise disturbance to wildlife habitats, particularly around established hedges and trees.
• We can recommend timber from responsibly managed sources and discuss more sustainable options where practical.
• Old timber and materials are separated and recycled where facilities allow.

We always leave your garden as tidy as possible, ready for your regular garden maintenance or further improvements.

Real‑World Use Cases in Soho Gardens

Our fencing work is often carried out alongside other gardening services to make the most of each visit:

• Hedge trimming – Shaping or reducing hedges that run alongside new fences for a balanced, neat boundary.
• Garden maintenance – Ongoing weeding, pruning and bed care once a secure fence is in place.
• Lawn mowing – Regular mowing and edging up to your new fence line for a crisp finish.
• Patio cleaning – Jet washing patios and paths that meet new fences, especially in small Soho courtyards.
• Tree surgery – Managing trees whose roots or branches may affect the fence line or neighbouring properties.

This joined‑up approach helps you get a coherent, well‑planned outdoor space, rather than a collection of separate jobs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does fencing cost in Soho?

Fencing costs vary depending on the length of the run, the style and quality of panels, the number of posts, and how easy it is to access your garden. As a rough guide, small repairs or a few replacement panels will cost significantly less than a full boundary replacement. We prefer to provide a tailored, fixed quotation after a brief discussion and, where needed, a survey. This way, you know exactly what you are paying for, with materials, labour and any waste removal clearly listed.

Do you offer same‑day or urgent fencing repairs?

In Soho, urgent fencing jobs usually involve storm damage or security concerns. While same‑day installation of a full fence is rarely practical, we will always try to offer a prompt temporary make‑safe solution, such as securing loose panels or posts. Subject to availability and access, we can often attend within a short timeframe to assess the damage and provide options. We then book a suitable date for permanent repairs or replacement, keeping you updated throughout so you can plan around the work.

Are your fencing services insured?

Yes. Gardeners Soho is fully insured for all fencing work we undertake. We carry public liability cover to protect against accidental damage or injury while working on your property. In addition, our goods in transit insurance covers materials and any items we transport for you. This gives you peace of mind that, in the unlikely event something goes wrong, you are properly protected. We are happy to share details of our insurance on request and can provide confirmation letters for landlords, managing agents or commercial clients.

What is usually included in a fencing service?

A typical fencing service in Soho includes an initial discussion, a clear quotation, and a short survey where required. On the day, we usually remove the old fence, prepare post holes, set new posts correctly, install panels or boards, and tidy the area afterwards. If agreed in advance, we also take old fencing away for disposal. Optional extras like painting or staining, large stump removal or major groundworks are not automatically included, but we can add them to your quotation if you wish, so everything is priced clearly up front.

How far in advance do I need to book?

Lead times for fencing in Soho vary with the season and the size of the job. For straightforward repairs or short runs, we can often schedule work within one to three weeks. Larger boundary projects may need a little more notice, especially in busy spring and summer periods. We always recommend getting in touch as soon as you know you need fencing, particularly if neighbour permissions or access arrangements are required. We will then agree dates that fit around your commitments and keep you updated if anything needs to change.

Can you work around existing plants and garden features?

Yes. As professional gardeners, we understand how important your plants, lawns and patios are. During fencing work, we aim to protect existing beds, borders and features as much as possible. Where access is tight, we may temporarily move pots or lightweight items and replace them afterwards. We can also advise if any shrubs or small trees need pruning to accommodate the new fence line. If you have particular plants you are concerned about, let us know during the survey so we can plan the installation to keep disturbance to a minimum.
