Storm Damaged Fence
Replacement, Truro
This project in Truro, Cornwall involved replacing a boundary fence that had been damaged during a severe storm. The existing structure had become unstable and unsafe, leaving the garden exposed and requiring a complete rebuild.
The goal was to remove the damaged fence and install a new, stronger boundary structure, creating a durable and attractive solution that would provide privacy and security for both neighbouring properties.
Before
Following a recent storm, the original fence had suffered significant structural damage. Sections had shifted and weakened, leaving the boundary unstable and no longer providing adequate privacy or protection.
In addition to the visual impact, the damaged fence posed a practical problem for both properties. The project therefore focused on removing the compromised structure and preparing the area for a new, more robust fence installation.
During
The first step was to remove the entire damaged fence structure, clearing the area and preparing the ground for the new installation.
During the reconstruction phase:
-
The damaged fence panels and posts were carefully dismantled
-
New structural supports were installed to ensure long-term stability
-
A new timber fence frame was constructed along the boundary line
-
Gravel edging was added alongside the patio area to improve drainage and create a clean finish
This stage ensured the new fence would be properly supported and aligned before the final cladding was installed.
After
The completed fence now provides a strong, clean and modern boundary between the two properties.
The vertical timber fencing creates a neat, contemporary appearance while offering improved privacy and security. The new structure has been designed to withstand weather conditions while maintaining a natural look that complements the surrounding garden and patio area.
The finished result delivers:
-
A durable, storm-resistant boundary fence
-
Improved privacy for both neighbouring properties
-
A clean, structured edge alongside the patio area
-
A practical and attractive solution designed to last
By replacing the damaged fence with a stronger timber construction, the project has restored the boundary and created a long-term solution that benefits both households.
