How Better Fences works
This is the simple, free way to find a fencer you can trust. It takes three steps, and the first one takes under a minute. You stay in control from start to finish.

1. Tell us about your job
Use our quick form to share your fence type, rough length and postcode. It takes under a minute and costs nothing. You do not need exact sizes, because installers can measure up later.
2. We match local installers
We match your details to a UK-wide network of vetted fencing installers. We pick those who cover your postcode and do your type of work. As a result, you only hear from fencers who can help.
3. Compare free quotes
Local fencers contact you with free, no-obligation quotes. Compare them and choose the installer that suits you. You can say no to all of them if none feels right.
What we do, and what we don't
Better Fences is a free matching service. We are not a fencing contractor. Instead, we connect you with a UK-wide network of vetted fencing installers and let you compare their quotes.
The independent installer you choose carries out the work. You agree the price and contract directly with them. That means you stay in control, because there is no obligation to accept any quote and using Better Fences is always free to you.
- Free to use, with no obligation
- Vetted installers, not random call centres
- Your details are only shared to quote your job
Frequently asked questions
How does Better Fences work?
Tell us about your fencing job on our quick quote form. Because each installer covers set areas, we only pass your job to vetted fencers who work near your postcode. They then get in touch with a free, no-obligation quote, usually within 24 hours.
Is getting a quote really free?
Yes. Requesting quotes through Better Fences costs you nothing, and you are under no obligation to go ahead. You only pay if you choose an installer, because you agree the price with them directly.
Do you cover my area?
We work with installers across England, Scotland and Wales, so we cover most UK postcodes. Submit your postcode and we will match you with fencers who work in your area. If you live somewhere remote, send the form anyway, since it only takes a minute.
Who carries out the work?
Independent, vetted local fencing contractors in our network carry out the work, not Better Fences. We connect you with trusted installers and let you compare their quotes. Because you pick the installer, you agree the price and contract with them directly.
How quickly will I hear back?
Most customers hear from a local installer within 24 hours of sending the form. For storm damage and urgent repairs, we often match you much faster. However, the exact time depends on the installer, since each one replies in their own time.
