Fencing, gates, bin stores and paths
The outside of a building is the first thing visitors see and often the last thing anyone gets round to fixing. A loose gate or an uneven path is easy to leave until someone complains or falls.
What we repair and build
- Fence panels, posts and gravel boards
- Gates, latches and hinges
- Bin stores
- Paving and uneven slabs
- Paths and steps
- Decking and handrails
- Boundary and garden walls
75 orders in supported housing
Between July 2024 and August 2026 we completed 75 fencing, gate and bin store work orders and 22 paving, decking and external orders for IKE Supported Housing. A secure boundary matters there, and so does a path that someone with a mobility aid can use.
Before someone falls
If a slab has lifted or a step has gone, tell us. We can make the area safe straight away and come back to do the repair properly. Our free monthly building walk has a section for the outside of your building.
Fences go in the wind
Winter gales take out fences across the whole area in the same week. If your boundary is down and the building needs to be secure, ring us and we will sort out something temporary first.
What was done outside
Each job is recorded with the date, what was done and photographs, as they are for work indoors. On a boundary shared with a neighbour, a dated photograph can be useful.
Where we work
We take on fencing, gates and external works across County Durham, Teesside and Tyne and Wear, working from our base in Newton Aycliffe. See the towns we cover, or find out how we work.
What people ask first
Do you do the gardens as well?
Yes, see grounds maintenance. It is often easiest to book both together.
Can you build a new bin store?
Yes. Send us the space and the bin sizes and we will quote.
Who owns the fence?
We cannot tell you that, but your deeds or managing agent should be able to.
Tell us where to start
Ring Wayne Cator, our Managing Director, or send us the details and we will come back to you.
