Services
Agricultural Fencing
Specialist agricultural fencing solutions designed for livestock security and farm efficiency. Our systems include cattle handling installations, post and rail fencing, and gate systems tailored to farm requirements. With firsthand experience managing commercial cattle and sheep, we create durable enclosures that withstand Yorkshire's weather while ensuring animal safety. Our expertise extends to visitor centre fencing and large-scale agricultural developments.
Equestrian Fencing
Custom equestrian fencing systems developed through our own horse ownership and management. We install estate fencing, post and rail enclosures, and horse net solutions for livery yards and stables. Our designs prioritise equine safety while maintaining aesthetic appeal, with options for boundary fencing and exercise areas. The team understands both practical requirements and regulatory standards for horse facilities.
Domestic Fencing
Comprehensive domestic fencing services for residential properties, from simple garden enclosures to complex landscaping projects. We handle complete installations, panel replacements, and bespoke features like raised beds and retaining walls. Offering traditional styles including feather edge, paling, and trellis options, our solutions combine visual appeal with weather-resistant construction using FSC-certified materials.
Commercial Fencing
Security-focused commercial fencing solutions for industrial sites and housing developments. Our installations include double-sided paling systems, steel security fencing, and concealment solutions for refuse areas. We provide access gate systems and boundary fencing for new build projects, working closely with construction companies to meet project specifications while maintaining long-term durability against environmental factors.
Horse Logging
Environmentally sensitive timber extraction using traditional horse logging methods. This low-impact service employs logging arches and sledges to transport materials from sites with limited access or ecological constraints. Ideal for bracken control and woodland management, our approach minimises ground disturbance while maintaining the ability to handle challenging terrain and sensitive habitats.
