Thank you to Shane and the lads who recently erected my 2 metre fencing. The lads worked hard even though the weather was against them. Thanks again. I will definitely be using Knights fencing in the future. Joy Edwards 😊
Michael P.
Knight installed new fencing for my rear garden. Looks great and I am very pleased with their service.
Graeme F.
Terry and Sam have done some really fabulous work for us. Totally reliable and give a full service experience for the customer. Will always go the extra mile to make sure the job is just right.

GREAT FENCING!!! We asked Knight Fencing to run 4ft 6"double closeboard with 18" close diamond trellis around our last property (in Bedhampton). This was because we saw what a great job they had done at one of our friend's gardens (in Southbourne). Then another friend saw what we had installed and Knight Fencing did the same for them at 6ft 6" around 3 sides of their back garden (also in Bedhampton). We then had the bottom of our garden re-fenced with 6ft 6" double closeboard when we first moved into our new property (in Purbrook). We are now ready to have the rest of the garden re-fenced and have no hesitation to call Knight Fencing again. Any time anyone has seen these 4 fencing jobs they only say what strong, professional and quality fencing it is.
Joe G.
First class products, professional attention and thoroughly reliable. Brilliant!
Mark H.
A massive mention for Jade who throughout the process of my purchasing and having installed two new large rear gates has been exemplary, customer service should be taught at retail outlets by this young lady. Thank you and the gates look great.
Claire A.
Fantastic service from start to finish. Terry was professional, knowledgeable, and kept me well informed throughout the entire process. The job was highly labour-intensive, as all materials had to be carried in and the old fencing removed from a very awkward location in relation to their van, yet nothing was ever too much trouble. Terry and his co-worker Samantha are absolute grafters who worked incredibly hard, and the results speak for themselves. I’m extremely happy with my new fencing and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Anthony R.
Have now used for a 3rd time to replace aging fences and fit new gates. Always a good job done!!
Jon B.
