What makes a good quality fence?

A fence created from the very best quality locally-sourced and treated timber means a robust fence that will stand the test of time when it’s professionally installed. J.A. Halkett & Son has more than 60 years experience installing quality fencing in Dumfries & Galloway. Our passion for quality in reflected in our work. By sourcing our timber from a local independent saw mill, we know that our fences will stand the test of time. What’s more, we are committed to delivering excellent customer service no matter how large or small your project. 

How much would a new fence cost?

That all depends on how large the area to be fenced is. What we can say however, is that we offer a competitively-priced quality fencing service and because we are professional fencers, our fences will last.

Do you also install garden decking?

Yes, we install a lot of quality garden decking, transforming many gardens throughout Dumfries & Galloway. Decking provides the perfect space to relax outdoors during those warmer summer months and enjoy a barbecue with friends and family.
