Common fencing jobs in Gateshead
Gateshead is a real mix — we'll be on a 70s semi-detached garden in Low Fell one morning and a new-build estate run in Marley Hill the next. Long closeboard runs are the bread and butter. We see a fair bit of repair work on the older Felling and Wrekenton estates after winter, and trade supply to local landscapers covering the Whickham and Sunniside villages.
Local notes — terrain, access, planning
Gateshead's hilly — Sheriff Hill and Low Fell sit high enough to catch the weather off the Tyne, so post depth matters more here than in the lower flats. We use 4×4 posts on most exposed runs and concrete-set as standard. Clay soil in pockets around Springwell needs rapid-set postcrete to set properly before back-filling.

Common questions about fencing in Gateshead
What's the best post spec for the higher Gateshead streets like Sheriff Hill?
For anything above 6ft on an exposed boundary up the hill, we recommend 4×4 (100×100mm) posts concrete-set 600mm deep with a gravel board underneath. The 4×3 we use lower down works fine for sheltered gardens but flexes more in proper Tyneside wind.
How much does a new fence cost in Gateshead?
Most 6ft closeboard builds work out around £45–£70 per metre supplied and built, including pressure-treated boards, posts, rails and gravel boards.
