Need Garden Fencing in Gillingham?
Garden Fencing in Gillingham Operating Across Medway
Secure your garden with Gillingham's local fencing experts
Ever sat in your garden in Gillingham and felt like the whole street was watching? We've all been there. Whether you're in a semi-detached near Watling Street or a quiet spot in Rainham, your garden should be your own private sanctuary. At Foster and Sons Landscaping, we've spent years helping our neighbours across Medway reclaim their privacy with sturdy, attractive fencing that actually lasts. As a family-run team, we don't just 'chuck up' panels; we build boundaries that stand up to the unpredictable Kent weather. From the initial site clearance to the final screw in a bespoke gate, we handle the lot so you don't have to spend your weekend lugging timber around. Have you noticed your current fence looking a bit wobbly after a typical Medway gale? It might be time for a professional look-see before the next storm rolls in.
Why Choose Us?
Choose the right timber for a lasting Medway boundary
Not all fence panels are created equal, and choosing the wrong one can be a costly mistake. If you're looking for something that can handle a bit of a battering from the wind, we usually recommend featheredge fencing—also known as closeboard. It's built with overlapping vertical boards that provide incredible strength and a classic look that suits almost any Gillingham home. If you're on a tighter budget, traditional waney lap or overlap panels are a great cost-effective choice for smaller gardens. We also install decorative trellis toppers, which are brilliant if you want to add some height for climbing plants without making your garden feel like a fortress. All our timber is pressure-treated (or tanalised, as we say in the trade), meaning it's soaked in preservative to keep rot and creepy-crawlies at bay for years to come.

Who We Are
Why concrete posts are a game-changer for Gillingham homes
Ever wondered why some fences look perfect after a decade while others start leaning after two winters? It usually comes down to what's going on underground. In many parts of Medway, the soil can hold a lot of moisture, which is bad news for wooden posts. That's why we're big fans of using reinforced concrete posts and gravel boards. A concrete gravel board sits right at the bottom of your fence, keeping the wooden panels off the damp earth and preventing the rot from starting. It's a bit more of an investment upfront, but it'll save you a fortune in the long run because you won't be replacing the whole lot in five years. We set our posts deep and secure them with high-quality postcrete, ensuring your boundary stays exactly where it should be, even when the coastal gusts pick up.

Bespoke gates designed for your security and style
A great fence is only as good as the gate that lets you through it. There's nothing more frustrating than a gate that sags, drags on the floor, or refuses to latch properly. We don't believe in 'one size fits all' solutions from the big DIY stores. Instead, we can build you a bespoke gate that matches your new fencing perfectly. Whether you need a small side gate to keep the dog in or a larger pair of entrance gates for added security, we ensure they're hung with heavy-duty galvanised hinges and secure latches. It's that extra bit of attention to detail—the stuff that makes your daily life a little bit easier—that we pride ourselves on. After all, your gate is often the first thing people see, so why not make it look the part?

01268 261424Honest repairs for storm damage and snapped posts
We've all woken up after a rough night of wind to find a panel slumped over or a post snapped at the base. Before you assume you need a brand-new fence, give us a shout. Often, we can save you a lot of money with a clever repair. If a wooden post has snapped but the rest of the fence is fine, we can install a 'concrete spur'—a sturdy support that's bolted to the existing post to give it a new lease of life. We’re always honest with our advice; if a repair is just a sticking plaster on a bigger problem, we’ll tell you straight. Our goal is to give you a secure garden, not to talk you into work you don't need. Based right here in Westcliff and serving all of Gillingham, we can usually get out to you quickly to secure your property after a storm.
