Buying, DIY and delivery
Learn about buying fencing materials, DIY fencing options, product availability, delivery, lead times and preparing for your FenceBuddy project.
Yes. FenceBuddy isn't only for supply-and-install jobs. Ask for supply only, collect from your nearest showroom or arrange delivery, then install it yourself.
Our Loov-A-Slat® calculator works out exactly what you need for a DIY slat fencing project. Our showroom teams can help with quantities for other ranges.
DIY works well for straightforward, flat, regular-shaped sections. For pool fencing where compliance really matters, sloping blocks or boundaries with awkward angles and corners, it's worth the full FenceBuddy option: we handle the measuring and specification, an experienced installer handles the install.
Those are exactly the jobs where a bit of experience saves you the most time and cost.
Many standard fencing products are available from stock for immediate collection or fast delivery, so supply-only orders can move quickly.
For a full install through FenceBuddy, timing depends on your chosen installer's schedule and whether anything is custom-made. Your quote will include an estimated start date.
Let our team know your target date and we'll only pass the job to installers who can realistically meet it, rather than leaving you to chase each one yourself.
Some noise, a crew on site and your yard open for part of the day. Help it run smoothly by clearing the fence line beforehand, planning where pets will be and confirming access for the crew and their gear.
Weather can shift dates, your installer will keep you posted and confirm how long they expect to be on site.
