What we install
Our fencing services in Broadstairs
A full range of fence styles in any height and finish to suit your budget — with timber or concrete posts. Bespoke designs available if you’d rather not go off-the-peg.
Built to last
Long-lasting fencing installations in Broadstairs
We recommend all timber used for new fences in Broadstairs is supplied pressure-treated (“tanalised”) for the best possible lifespan. This treatment gives soft-wood fencing a typical 15–20 year life and is especially important for gravel boards that stay in contact with damp ground.
Whether you need a small repair or a whole garden re-fenced, we’ll advise the best option for your Broadstairs property — no two jobs are the same.
What Broadstairs customers say
Verified reviews from CT10 & Thanet
Close board fencing and trellis fencingThe company was excellent in every respect and I will have no hesitation in using Moores Fencing in the future. Not only was the work of a very high standard, but all the old fencing was removed and the site thoroughly cleaned on completion.
Fencing to the rear and front of my propertyArrived on time and the work was completed to a fantastic standard. All rubbish was cleared and the garden was made spotless. I cannot praise Kieren more — friendly, gave good advice and worked fantastically hard. Would recommend to anyone.
Wouldn’t go anywhere elseSecond job done very well by Kieran — the first was the same a couple of years ago. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Perfect experience, thanks Kieran.

Fencing FAQs
Do you need planning permission for a fence in Broadstairs?
In most cases, no. You can usually put up a garden fence without planning permission as long as it’s no more than 2 metres high. If the fence borders a road or footpath it’s limited to 1 metre. Parts of Broadstairs, including the old town and seafront, fall within conservation areas where stricter rules apply — we’ll check this for you before quoting.
What is the 2 metre fence rule?
The 2 metre fence rule means a fence in your garden can be up to 2 metres tall without needing planning permission. Anything taller, or a fence over 1 metre next to a road or pavement, may need permission. If you’re replacing an existing fence that’s already over 2 metres, the new one should be no higher.
How high can a garden fence be in Broadstairs?
To stay within permitted development and keep on good terms with the neighbours, keep your fence under 2 metres in total height. Fences alongside a road or footpath are restricted to 1 metre. Adding a trellis on top counts towards the total height.
Who owns the fence — and who is responsible for it?
The only certain way to know is to check the title deeds for your property, which often mark boundary ownership with a ‘T’ symbol. In practice the question usually only comes up when a fence needs replacing. If ownership isn’t clear, it comes down to communication and common sense between neighbours — we’re happy to advise on what’s typical in Broadstairs.
Who gets the good side of the fence?
It’s your fence, so you can have it whichever way round you like — the idea that you must give the neighbour the smooth side is a common myth, not a legal requirement. That said, facing the smooth side outward is considered good etiquette and looks tidier from the street.
How much does fencing cost in Broadstairs?
Fencing costs in Broadstairs depend on the type of fence, the length and how easy the area is to access. As a guide, most residential fencing jobs in East Kent fall between £600 and £1,330, with an average of around £900; larger projects can run from £900 to £2,000. No two jobs are the same, so we always provide a free, no-obligation site survey and an itemised quote before any work begins.
