Garden Fencing in Gateshead
Booking garden fencing work is a big decision — you're living with the result for years. Our Gateshead customers pick WM Driveways because we explain the trade-offs plainly, price transparently, and don't disappear once the deposit is paid.
Our approach to this project
Garden Fencing works in Gateshead generally break down into three phases: careful prep, correct sub-base, and a well-detailed surface. Skip any one and the job looks fine for a summer, then starts to move.
On this page we've set out how WM Driveways approaches garden fencing in the NE8 area — the choices you'll actually be making, and the local factors we plan around before a spade goes in the ground.
Why the area shapes the spec
Gateshead is characterised by town centre living close to the Sage and BALTIC with mixed housing stock. That means we tailor the spec to the street rather than dropping in an off-the-shelf build. We routinely work across Low Fell and Dunston too, so we know the streets, the access constraints and the type of garden fencing spec that actually holds up here.

Common questions from homeowners
What about drainage and SUDS?+
Where required we build in a soakaway or connect to an existing surface water drain — never into foul drainage.
Will you tidy up after the job?+
Always. The site is swept and washed down at the end of each day, and we do a full clear-down and handover walk when the job is finished.
Do you cover my postcode?+
Yes — Gateshead (NE8) is inside our regular coverage area. We work right across Gateshead and the wider North East, so travel isn't a problem.
Can you match the existing paving?+
Where products are still in production, yes. Where they aren't, we'll show you the closest current options and how the transition will read on the ground.
Do you offer a guarantee?+
We stand behind our workmanship and manufacturer product warranties apply on the surfaces themselves — we'll set the specifics out clearly in your quote.
