Our Fencing Process and What It Costs
Every job starts with a free site visit. We’ll come out, look at the ground, talk about what you want, and give a fixed price, no hidden extras. We use pressure-treated timber from local suppliers and concrete that’s mixed to last. Most domestic fences are done in two to three days. For bigger jobs, we’ll give you a clear timeline. Here’s what we cover:
- Post holes dug by hand or with a petrol auger, depending on access
- Concrete or gravel backfill to stop frost heave
- Panels, rails, and gates supplied and fitted
- Clear old fence material and take it away
We also travel to nearby villages, ask about fencing construction in Milltown if that’s closer to you.

Common questions about fencing construction in Mullagh
How long does a timber fence usually last around Mullagh?
With pressure-treated timber and proper concrete posts, a good fence can last 10 to 15 years. The damp Cavan winters can shorten that if posts aren’t set right, so we always use gravel boards and treat the cut ends.
Do you do fencing for fields and farms as well as gardens?
Yes, we do post-and-rail, stock fencing, and sheep netting. We’ve worked on farms around Mullagh and know what’s needed for cattle and horses. Just tell us what you’re keeping in or out.
Can you match an existing fence style in my estate?
Often yes. We can source panels or build close-board to match most estate fences. If it’s an older style, we’ll do our best to find a close match or suggest a compatible alternative.
What’s the typical cost for a standard garden fence?
Prices vary by size and materials, but a typical 6ft timber panel fence with concrete posts runs from about £60 per metre supplied and fitted. We’ll give you an itemised quote after viewing the site.
