// Fence boards · Consett · DH8, DH9

Pressure-treated fence boards delivered to Consett

Fence board is what most Consett fencers reach for first. Closeboard fence boards are the vertical timber that makes the face of a closeboard fence. We carry 4ft (1.2m), 5ft (1.5m), 6ft (1.8m) and 8ft (2.4m) lengths in 4", 5" and 6" widths. Pressure-treated softwood, tantalised — ready for proper North East weather. We deliver across Consett and Stanley and the wider Durham footprint — 1–2 day.

Whether you're laying a single back-garden run on a Stanley or Annfield Plain property or quoting a multi-house developer plot, the timber's the same: pressure-treated softwood, sized properly, dropped where you need it.

Common uses

Full-height boundary fences, gate-frame fill, single-panel repairs after a storm, garden screens for patios and bin stores.

How to install / use

Boards run vertically on horizontal rails between 4×3" or 4×4" posts. Typical 6ft fence uses 6ft × 6" boards on 4ft 6" centres with two arris rails. For repairs, match the existing height and you can often slot a new board into the old line.

What Consett looks like for fencing

West Durham catches weather coming off the moors — colder, wetter, more exposed than the coast. Fence treatment matters: untreated will rot fast, and a cap rail on top is worth the extra few quid for any exposed run. Some Lanchester and Castleside plots back onto open fields with livestock, so we'll spec stock-proof boards (closeboard with no gaps) rather than panel.

Neighbourhoods we drop to: Stanley, Annfield Plain, Burnopfield, Tanfield, Lanchester, Castleside, Leadgate, Crookhall, Knitsley, The Grove. Plus surrounding postcodes (DH8, DH9) — drop your postcode at checkout if you're unsure.
