St Athan fencing

A Village Built Around the Airfield

St Athan is best known for its airfield, home to MOD St Athan, and in recent years to Aston Martin's factory as well. Around it sit the old village, the neighbouring village of Eglwys Brewis, and the East Camp and West Camp estates that were built as service housing.

That gives us two kinds of job here. For homes, it is mostly replacing tired fences between back gardens, adding side and driveway gates, and putting up composite or timber screens. For businesses and contractors, it is security fencing and site hoarding.

Either way, the posts go in concrete, and the old fence goes with us when we leave.

Business and building sites

Security Fencing and Site Hoarding

For yards, compounds and business premises we fit V mesh, high security mesh and steel palisade fencing, with matching gates. For building sites, we put up timber hoarding on a frame to keep the public out and the site secure.

Tell us the length of the boundary, what you need to keep in or out, and whether you need a vehicle gate, and we will price it.

Planning

Fence Rules in St Athan

Homes

In Wales, a garden fence or gate up to 2 metres high, or 1 metre beside a road used by vehicles or its footpath, usually needs no planning permission.

Business sites

Taller security fencing, or fencing on commercial land, may need planning permission. Check with the Vale of Glamorgan Council before ordering.

Ex-service housing

Some homes on the former service estates may have covenants in the deeds about boundaries. Check them before replacing a front fence.

Replacing a fence like for like, at the same height, is not normally a planning matter.
