Sunderland fence board supply — closeboard timber, kerbside
Trade buying fence board in Sunderland? Open a trade account for net terms and trade rates. Most Sunderland jobs we supply roll through in Next-day, kerbside dropped at the door or the working site.
Sunderland splits into two jobs-wise: the coastal Roker/Seaburn streets where we're replacing storm-damaged panels and adding caps for longevity, and the inland Silksworth/Doxford estates where it's mostly new-build trade supply and full closeboard runs. Houghton, Hetton and Penshaw run the older terraced stock — lots of single-panel replacements and gate-post jobs.

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 Sunderland looks like for fencing
The North Sea air is the big factor on anything east of the A1018. Salt accelerates rot at the ground line, so we recommend gravel boards under every coastal fence and pressure-treated posts as a minimum — never untreated. Sandy soil in pockets near Seaburn and Roker means standard post depths need a touch more concrete than inland.
