Close Board Fencing
Full new close board runs when the existing fence is beyond repair.
Learn More →Storm damage, leaning posts, broken panels — we fix what's worth fixing and replace what isn't. Available 24/7.
Fences don't fail on a schedule — they fail when the wind picks up, a post rots at ground level, or a neighbour's tree branch comes down on your boundary. When that happens in Chesterfield, you need someone who'll actually come out, not a call centre that takes your details and disappears. We handle fence repairs across the town — from storm-damaged lap panels in Brimington to leaning close board runs in Hasland and snapped posts on exposed boundaries in Whittington Moor.
Our repair work covers the full range of problems: posts snapped or leaning at the base, arris rails rotted through, individual featheredge boards pulled off, whole panels blown out between posts, and gates dropped off their hinges. Where a post is cracked but the rest of the line is sound, we'll bolt on a concrete spur rather than dig out the whole post — it's faster, cheaper, and often just as strong. Where the post is rotten right through, we'll set a new one in postcrete and tie it back into the existing run.
We're based on Newbold Road, so we can reach most of Chesterfield quickly — Newbold, Boythorpe, Walton, and the town centre are minutes away. After storm damage we prioritise making the boundary safe and secure first, then schedule the full repair. Ring 01224 929406 any time — we're available 24 hours a day.
Honest assessment, proper fixings, and fast response when you need it.

"Wind took three panels and snapped a post in Brimington. Called on a Sunday evening and they were out Monday morning with a concrete spur and new panels. Fence is solid again — didn't need the whole run replacing."
Common questions about fence repairs in Chesterfield.
Yes. After strong winds we regularly replace snapped posts, bolt on concrete spurs, and swap damaged panels across Chesterfield — often within 24–48 hours of your call. Ring 01224 929406 any time; we're available 24/7 and can make the fence safe and secure before a full repair if needed.
If the posts and arris rails are still sound, we'll replace only the damaged panels or boards — there's no need to rip out a whole run for two broken sections. If posts are rotten at ground level, we'll swap those or add concrete spurs rather than quote you for a full new fence unless it's genuinely beyond repair.
A concrete spur is a reinforced post bolted to the side of a broken or leaning timber post, extending below ground to stabilise it without digging out the whole post. We use them when the post is cracked or leaning but the rest of the fence line is fine — common after wind damage on exposed boundaries in Brimington and Whittington Moor.
For emergency storm damage we aim to respond the same day or next working day depending on workload. For non-urgent repairs — a leaning post, a broken board, a gate off its hinges — we typically schedule within a few days. Call any time and we'll tell you honestly when we can get to you.
Yes. We repair close board (featheredge), lap panels, picket, post and rail, and concrete post and panel systems. Close board repairs usually mean replacing individual boards or arris rails. Panel fencing means swapping matching panels between existing posts where possible.
