Garden Fencing in Chatham Operating Across Medway
Secure your home with sturdy garden fencing in Chatham
Have you ever looked out at your garden after a particularly nasty Medway gale and seen your fence panels leaning at a precarious angle? It’s a common sight for many of us in Chatham, especially when the wind picks up across the hills. At Foster and Sons Landscaping, we know that a fence is more than just a boundary; it’s about keeping your kids and pets safe, giving you a bit of privacy for a weekend BBQ, and making your home look its best. As a family-run business, we’ve spent years helping our neighbours across Rochester, Gillingham, and Chatham replace battered old panels with something that’ll actually stand up to the British weather. Whether you’re dealing with a sudden collapse or just want to refresh a tired-looking garden, we’re here to help.
Why Choose Us?
Featheredge fencing built to withstand the elements
Why do some fences last for decades while others seem to rot away in a few seasons? Usually, it comes down to the quality of the timber and how it’s put together. Most homeowners we chat with prefer Closeboard, often called featheredge fencing, because it’s incredibly robust. Instead of pre-made panels, we build these on-site using overlapping vertical boards and sturdy arris rails. This design doesn't just look great—it allows the wind to pass through more naturally, meaning it's far less likely to act like a sail and blow over during a storm. Everything we use is pressure-treated (or tanalised, if you want the technical term), which means the preservative is forced deep into the wood to keep rot and creepy-crawlies at bay for years to come.

Who We Are
Stop the rot with concrete posts and gravel boards
Have you ever noticed how fences always seem to fail right at the bottom? That’s usually because the timber is sitting directly on the damp soil, soaking up moisture like a sponge. To prevent this, we always recommend using concrete gravel boards. These act as a protective barrier between the ground and your fence panels. Combine those with reinforced concrete posts set deep into the ground with high-quality postcrete, and you’ve got a boundary that isn't going anywhere. While we can certainly install traditional wooden posts if you prefer that natural look, concrete is the real winner if you’re looking for a 'fit and forget' solution that won't snap in a high wind.

Honest advice on fence repairs versus replacement
Is your fence actually past its prime, or does it just need a bit of TLC? We won't try to sell you a brand-new perimeter if a simple repair will do the trick. Sometimes a post snaps but the panels are still in great shape—in those cases, we can often use concrete spurs to reinforce the existing structure and save you a fair bit of money. However, if the timber has turned brittle or the majority of the arris rails have gone soft, a full replacement is usually the better investment in the long run. We’ll give you a straight answer and a free, no-obligation quote so you can decide what works best for your budget.

01268 261424Custom gates and decorative trellis for the finishing touch
Imagine having a beautiful new fence but still having to struggle with a wonky, dragging side gate. It doesn't quite feel finished, does it? We can build and install bespoke gates that match your new fencing perfectly, ensuring they’re fitted with heavy-duty hinges and secure bolts that actually line up. If you want to add a bit of flair or extra height without blocking out all the light, a bit of decorative trellis or lattice work on top of your panels can make a huge difference. It’s perfect for climbing plants like clematis or honeysuckle, turning a plain wooden wall into a living part of your garden. We handle everything from the initial site clearance—taking away your old, broken fence for proper disposal—to the final screw in the latch.
