New garden fencing throughout South West London — from Ealing and Chiswick to Richmond, Barnes and East Sheen. We install residential and commercial fences in timber and metal, choosing the style and treatment that best suits your garden, with honest advice and a friendly, reliable service.
A fence to suit your garden
Fencing comes in many styles, and we help you choose the one that fits your space. From standard lap panels and redwood screens to close-board feather-edge, pressure-treated panels, the elite decorative range and rustic willow rolls or hurdles, we work in both timber and metal. Whatever your taste, we make sure the fence complements your garden rather than dominating it — adding a clean, considered design element that works equally well for domestic or commercial settings.
Dip-treated panels
Dip-treated timber is usually a darker brown or golden colour. The process is quick, which keeps the price down compared with pressure treatment. The trade-off is longevity — dip-treated fencing doesn't last quite as long and benefits from an occasional brush-on preservative to give the timber the longest possible life.
Pressure treatment
Pressure treatment forces preservatives deep into the timber using a vacuum and high pressure, giving excellent protection against insects and fungal decay. Pressure-treated fencing lasts noticeably longer than dip-treated, so while it costs a little more up front, it repays that investment in years of service. We'll help you weigh the initial cost against the lifespan you expect from your new fence.

Frequently asked questions
Practical answers from the Cutting Hedge team.
How much does garden fencing cost in London?
Fencing cost depends on the length of the run, the panel style you choose and the timber treatment. Dip-treated lap panels are the most budget-friendly option; pressure-treated close-board and feather-edge fencing cost more but last considerably longer. We measure the area and provide a free, itemised quote so you know exactly what the fencing will cost before work begins.
What types of fencing do Cutting Hedge install?
We install a full range of residential and commercial fencing, including close-board feather-edge panels, pressure-treated and dip-treated lap panels, redwood screens, willow rolls and hurdles, elite decorative panels and Jackson's fencing. We help you choose the style that best suits your garden and the way you use it.
Dip-treated or pressure-treated timber — which is better?
Dip treatment is quicker and cheaper but doesn't last as long and may need additional brush-on preservative. Pressure treatment forces preservatives deep into the timber using a vacuum process, giving much better protection against rot and insects. We recommend pressure-treated fencing for most London gardens where longevity matters.
