Landscaping & Fencing in Lowestoft
Homes in Lowestoft
Lowestoft is a coastal town in Suffolk and the most easterly town in the UK, so outdoor work here is planned with the coast in mind. Many homes are Victorian terraces, and those nearer the sea face salt air and coastal weather. When you get in touch, say how close the property is to the sea and how exposed the garden is, because a fence, gate or patio sits out in those conditions. If the ground tends to stay wet, fence posts last longer set in concrete or on concrete spurs.

What matters for landscaping & fencing in Lowestoft
Any job for Landscaping & Fencing in Lowestoft begins with what you tell us: the space, the work you have in mind and where the property is. Patios and paths last longest on a sub-base that has been properly dug and compacted, so that comes before any paving goes down. The finished surface should fall slightly away from the house so rainwater drains off.
- Send a few details about the garden and the changes you want, including where in Lowestoft you live.
- Mention anything already on the boundary, such as an old fence or gate you want replaced.
- Custom gates are built and fitted by us, so a gate can be made for your opening.
Questions about landscaping & fencing in Lowestoft
Do I need planning permission for a fence in my Lowestoft garden?
Generally not, as long as it is no taller than two metres. Where the fence runs next to a road, the general limit drops to one metre.
Can you make a gate to suit an awkward gap?
Yes. We build and fit custom gates as part of our fencing work. Tell us roughly how wide the gap is and how the gate will be used, and add any fencing or patio work you are planning alongside it.
