Fence Builders Richmond
Richmond doesn't have much space. Every metre matters.
Richmond is dense. Terrace houses shoulder to shoulder, narrow lots, shared boundaries that have been through multiple owners and multiple fence replacements. It's inner-city fencing with all the challenges that entails — tight access, complex ownership questions, and neighbours in close proximity.
The soil here is often mixed — original clay over made ground, especially in older sections near the industrial pockets. Post depth matters, and so does understanding what's already down there before you dig.
We work regularly in Richmond on terrace houses, townhouses, and the occasional commercial boundary. Short runs, complex access, shared boundaries — all handled with the same care as any other job.
