Palisade Fencing Replaced & Decking Renovated in Wisborough Green

A long run of weathered palisade fencing replaced and the decking around the buildings renovated at a nursery in Wisborough Green, working around the setting while it stayed open.

The job

The palisade fencing had weathered down to bare grey timber, with pickets split, rotted at the base or missing altogether and one section leaning away from its posts. The decking and the ramp running round the buildings had gone the same way: boards worn smooth, several soft underfoot, and leaves packed into the gaps.

Richard replaced the fencing run in sections and renewed the decking boards where they had gone, reusing the sound timber and the existing posts where they were still solid rather than stripping everything out. The new fencing was treated once it was up, which is what gives it the colour in the last photographs.

The work was done around a setting that stayed open, so each section was taken down, replaced and made safe before the next one was started rather than leaving an open boundary at any point.
