Standard fence panels do not fit every garden. Awkward dimensions, sloping ground, irregular boundaries, or a garden design that simply deserves something more considered than an off-the-shelf panel — these are exactly the situations where custom fencing delivers.
Gardiner Fencing Services designs and installs bespoke fencing solutions for homeowners across Hayes, Hillingdon, Ealing, and the wider West London area. Made to measure fencing built to your exact dimensions, your preferred style, and your budget. Every job starts with a free site assessment and a no-obligation quote.
Gardiner Fencing Services is a family-owned business based in Hayes. We install all the standard timber and concrete fencing options across West London, but a significant part of our work involves gardens that need something different.
Non-standard widths, unusual heights, sloping boundary lines, split-level gardens, or homeowners who simply want a fence that reflects their garden's character rather than blending into every other fence on the street.
Custom garden fencing is not a specialist niche for us — it is a natural extension of what we do every day. We approach each bespoke fencing project by understanding exactly what the garden needs, what the homeowner wants to achieve, and what materials and construction methods will deliver that result within the available budget.
We do not charge for advice. Every enquiry gets a proper site visit, an honest conversation about what is achievable, and a detailed written quote before any commitment is required.
Tell Us About Your Project
Custom garden fencing covers a wide range of styles, materials, and construction approaches. Here are the most common types of bespoke fencing work we carry out across Hayes and West London.
Where standard panel widths or heights do not fit your boundary exactly, we fabricate made to measure timber fencing to your specific dimensions. This is particularly useful for gardens with irregular plot widths, corners that do not fall neatly at standard post spacings, or fence runs that require non-standard heights due to planning considerations, neighbour agreements, or the specific privacy requirements of the garden.
Made to measure timber fencing uses the same quality pressure-treated materials as our standard installations. The difference is that every board, panel, or section is cut and fitted to your exact dimensions on site, producing a finish that looks deliberate and considered rather than approximated from the nearest standard size.
Enquire About Made to Measure FencingContemporary garden design increasingly calls for fencing that does more than define a boundary. Horizontal slatted fencing, open-framed panel designs, and mixed-material combinations of timber, metal, and trellis have become popular choices for West London homeowners who want a garden fence that contributes positively to the overall garden aesthetic rather than simply surrounding it.
We design and install modern garden fencing to suit current garden design trends as well as individual style preferences. Whether you are looking for a clean horizontal slat fence to complement a contemporary garden layout, an open-frame design that balances privacy with light, or a bespoke combination of materials and heights across different sections of your garden, we can discuss the options and provide a quote based on your specific brief.
Enquire About Modern Garden FencingDecorative fencing prioritises visual impact alongside function. This includes fences with trellis or lattice top sections to add height and interest without creating a solid wall effect, timber fencing with shaped or scalloped tops for a more traditional cottage garden aesthetic, and panel designs that incorporate decorative cut-outs or inset panels for a distinctive look.
We design and install decorative garden fencing across Hayes and West London, recommending the right construction approach for the style you want and the durability you need. All decorative timber work is carried out in pressure-treated timber where structural elements are concerned, with decorative features added above that baseline.
Enquire About Decorative FencingSloping ground is one of the most common reasons homeowners seek a custom fencing solution. Standard fence panels are rectangular and do not naturally follow a slope, which means they either leave gaps at the base or require stepping or raking to follow the ground line. Stepped fencing creates a clean, formal appearance with uniform panel heights stepping down the slope. Raked or sloped fencing follows the ground line more closely for a more seamless finish.
We assess every sloping garden carefully at the quoting stage and recommend the approach that will look best for the specific gradient and garden layout. Where concrete gravel boards are used at the base, these can be custom-cut to follow irregular ground levels more closely than standard sizes allow.
Get Advice on Fencing for a Sloping GardenStandard garden fence panels are typically supplied in heights up to 1.8 metres. Where additional height is required for privacy, screening, or security, we can design and install custom height fencing using extended posts and additional panel sections or bespoke boards to reach the height you need. We advise on any planning considerations relevant to fence height at the quoting stage.
Enquire About Custom Height FencingSome of the most visually effective custom fencing solutions combine more than one material. Concrete posts with decorative timber panels, timber framing with metal infill panels, or fencing that transitions between solid boarding and open trellis sections across different areas of the garden — all of these are approaches we can design and install.
Mixed material fencing requires careful planning at the design stage to ensure structural consistency and a coherent finished appearance. We discuss the options in detail at the site visit and provide a quote that reflects the materials and construction method your chosen design requires.
Discuss a Mixed Material Fencing DesignIf you are in the early stages of planning a bespoke fencing project, here are some practical things worth thinking about before you get in touch. None of these need to be resolved before calling us — we work through all of them at the site visit — but having a rough idea of your priorities helps the conversation move faster.
How much privacy do you need, and from which directions? The required height of your fence will be determined by the height difference between your garden and neighbouring properties or public areas, and by what you need to screen. We advise on the effective height needed to achieve your privacy goals and flag any planning height limits relevant to your property.
Is your garden contemporary or traditional? Do you want the fence to blend in or make a statement? A modern horizontal slat design reads very differently to a traditional featherboard fence with a trellis top, even on the same boundary. Bringing photos or references of styles you like to the site visit is genuinely useful for narrowing down the design direction quickly.
Is your garden flat, sloping, or uneven? Are there areas where the ground retains water? Ground conditions affect both the post specification and the approach to fitting panels or boards at the base of the fence. We assess this at the site visit and factor it into the design and materials recommendation.
Custom fencing generally costs more than standard panel fencing because of the additional design work, material fabrication, and installation time involved. Being clear about your budget at the outset allows us to work within it honestly, recommending where to invest and where a simpler approach delivers a comparable result.
Bespoke fencing requires a more detailed conversation than a standard panel replacement. Here is how we approach every custom garden fencing project.
We visit your garden, take measurements of the full boundary or the specific sections requiring custom fencing, and have a detailed conversation about what you want to achieve. We discuss style preferences, privacy requirements, height, materials, and budget at this stage so that the quote we produce reflects exactly what you are asking for.
For more involved custom fencing projects, we discuss the design approach in detail before quoting. This includes how to handle slopes, corners, gates, or transitions between fence styles, and how to achieve the look you want within your budget. We give honest advice on what is achievable and what would represent good value for the investment.
We provide a detailed written quote covering all materials and labour. No vague estimates, no provisional figures subject to change. The quote reflects the exact scope of work agreed at the site visit.
We supply all materials ourselves. For bespoke timber fencing, this includes all pressure-treated boards, posts, rails, fixings, and any decorative components. Installation is carried out by our own team to the standard we maintain on every job.
We leave the site clean on completion, with all waste material removed. We walk you through the finished fence before we leave and make sure you are satisfied with the result.

Custom garden fencing refers to fencing that is designed and built specifically for your garden rather than using standard off-the-shelf panel sizes and configurations. This includes made to measure fencing for non-standard boundary dimensions, bespoke height fencing, decorative styles not available in standard panels, fencing for sloping or irregular ground, modern design styles such as horizontal slatted fencing, and mixed material combinations. Gardiner Fencing Services designs and installs all of these across Hayes and West London.
The cost of bespoke fencing varies depending on the design complexity, materials specified, fence run length, and site-specific factors such as slopes or access. Custom and made to measure fencing generally costs more than standard panel fencing because of the additional design and fabrication work involved. We provide free, detailed written quotes for every custom fencing project so you have a clear picture of the full cost before making any commitment. Contact us to arrange a free site visit and quote.
Yes. We design and install custom height fencing where standard panel heights do not meet your requirements. This typically involves extended posts and bespoke board or panel arrangements above the standard height. We advise on any planning considerations relevant to fence height at the quoting stage, as permitted development rules apply to fence heights above 1 metre on a highway boundary and above 2 metres elsewhere.
Yes. Horizontal slatted fencing is one of the most popular modern garden fencing styles we are asked about. We design and install horizontal slat fences in pressure-treated timber across Hayes and West London, with slat spacing, height, and frame construction tailored to your garden layout and privacy requirements. Get in touch to discuss your design brief and we will provide a free quote.
Sloping gardens require a custom approach that standard panels do not accommodate well. We assess the gradient at the site visit and recommend either stepped fencing, where panels step down the slope in uniform increments, or raked fencing, where the panel or board line follows the ground level more closely. The right approach depends on the steepness of the slope, the fence style, and the aesthetic you want to achieve. We discuss both options and the cost difference at the quoting stage.
