Designed around
the finished space.
Fencing is often the backdrop to the entire garden. The right boundary treatment can make a finished space feel cleaner, more private and more deliberate, especially when its colour and line work with the lawn, paving and planting.
What it can include
- Garden boundary fencing
- Privacy and screening
- Replacement fence lines
- Fencing integrated with landscaping
- Boundary treatments beside lawns and paving
- Clean transitions around corners and levels
Why this service works
Boundary treatments that give the finished garden a proper frame.
Fencing affects privacy, enclosure and the backdrop behind everything else in the garden. When it is considered alongside the lawn, paving and planting, the boundary can become a strong visual part of the finished landscaping rather than something that simply sits around it.
Cleaner backdrop
A consistent fence line can immediately make the rest of the garden feel more resolved.
Defined boundaries
Give lawns, paving and planting a clear visual frame.
Integrated finish
Coordinate the boundary with the colours and lines used elsewhere in the garden.
Common starting points
What homeowners often want to improve.

Genuine C&S project work
Built into the whole space.
Real completed work provides the clearest view of how the finished landscaping sits alongside the surrounding garden, boundaries and property.
Design direction
Ways to shape the finished space.
Dark contemporary boundary
A darker finish can create a strong backdrop behind bright lawn and pale paving.
Natural timber screen
Timber can add warmth around planted or paved areas.
Whole-garden boundary
A consistent treatment around several sides can visually simplify the space.
Integrated boundary
Coordinate fencing with gravel strips and the lines of the patio or lawn.
How we approach it
Considered from
start to finish.
Assess the boundary
We consider the existing line, privacy requirements and how the fence relates to the garden.
Set out cleanly
Posts, panels and corners are positioned to create a consistent boundary.
Integrate the finish
The fence line is finished alongside paving, lawns, gravel or raised features so the garden reads as one space.
What sits behind the finish
Workmanship matters before the final surface goes down.
The visible result is only one part of the job. Set-out, preparation, levels, edges and the interfaces between materials all influence how complete the project feels.
Assess the line
Existing boundaries, corners, levels and access are considered before the new treatment is set out.
Set posts & panels
The fence is installed to create a consistent line across the relevant boundary.
Handle transitions
Corners and changes in ground level are treated deliberately.
Integrate the base
The fence line is finished alongside paving, gravel, lawns or raised features where these meet it.

Useful answers
Frequently asked questions.
These answers are intentionally general because the right approach depends on the individual property, ground conditions and project brief.
Have a different question? →Can you replace existing garden fencing?+
Existing boundary fencing can be assessed for replacement as part of a fencing or wider landscaping project.
Can fencing be included in a full garden transformation?+
Yes. Several C&S Landscapes projects combine boundary treatment with lawns, paving and other landscaping.
Can I choose the look or colour?+
The visual treatment can be discussed around the garden and the type of fencing being proposed.
How high can a garden fence be?+
Appropriate height depends on the property, boundary and any applicable planning rules. This should be confirmed for the specific project rather than assumed.
Can you fence around changes in level?+
Changes in ground level can be considered when the boundary is set out; the correct solution depends on the site.
Will new fencing work with existing paving or lawn?+
The junction between the boundary and surrounding surfaces can be planned as part of the installation.
Do you install screening as part of landscaping?+
Boundary and screening treatments can form part of a broader landscaping brief where appropriate.
How do I request a quote?+
Use the consultation form with a short description of the boundary and what you would like to change.
