How Much Does a New Garden Fence Cost in 2026?

By Patrick Greenwood, GK Landscapes Surrey • 2026-06-11

Fencing prices vary by material, height, ground conditions and the length of the run. Here are realistic installed prices for Surrey in 2026.

Fencing Cost Per Metre (Installed, 2026)

  • Close board fencing (1.8m high, concrete posts): £90–£140/m
  • Panel fencing (1.8m): £55–£90/m
  • Trellis topper (add-on to existing fence): £25–£45/m
  • Picket fencing: £45–£75/m

Gate Costs (Installed)

  • Timber side gate: £350–£700
  • Double timber driveway gate: £600–£1,200
  • Metal garden gate: £400–£900
  • Electric metal driveway gates: £2,500–£5,000+

What Affects the Price?

Post type: concrete posts cost more than wooden but last significantly longer. We always recommend concrete for main boundary fences.

Ground conditions: rocky or very hard ground increases post installation time. Sloping ground requires stepped panels or specialised installation.

Access: fencing that can only be reached through a house requires longer material carrying and can add time to the job.

Removing old fencing: disposal of old posts and panels adds to the overall cost. We include this in our quotes.
