Joiner recommendations or cheap(er) fence solutions - Bangor

Hi

I've just bought my first property and need to fence one side of the driveway and the backgarden (on three sides) to allow me to get a (large) dog.

The property is in Bangor and I wondered whether anyone here could recommend a joiner or cheap(er) solution for a fence?

Many thanks
Andrew

  • We have two dogs - a collie cross and a lurcher. The lurcher is partial to chewing our trelis fencing while the collie prefers to hurl herself against the panel fencing. I am sure you have costed out the implications of having a dog - vets bills, boarding kennels, regular walks, bathing, cleaning up after them. I reckon our two cost us at least £ 700 per year.

    Roy Graham in Newtownards stocks a range of fencing. You could always give them a go. If you have a neighbour, you would be advised discussing your plans with them - helps keep them sweet. They may also be agreeable to "chip in" for some of the cost.

    Cheers for the reply. I've had German Shepherd Dogs all my life but had to put my last one to sleep in the Summer. Have moved since so want to get a new GSD (& by token of that a large fence) asap. I'll give your recommendation a call but I'm concerned because it's a very large perimeter to enclose and as a first time buyer I'm on a very tight budget. Regretfully don't think my Neighbours are that generous :)
