Fencing in Eastry

Eastry - the drier higher ground

Eastry sits on the chalk downs south of Sandwich, higher and drier than the marsh side of Sandwich itself. Wind exposure is lower, the water table is deeper, and the ground works properly for post-holes without the fast-set drama we get in the town. Timber posts here get closer to their theoretical 15-20 year life, which changes the up-front cost calculation.

Typical Eastry jobs

• Timber-post panel fencing where the customer wants the up-front saving and the ground supports it
• Concrete-post closeboard where the plot is larger and the customer wants the long play
• Gates on driveways off the High Street and the newer development edges
• Decking work with fence tie-ins on garden rebuilds
