Posted on by Debbie Newman

Vegetation Management comes in many forms.  Here we’re clearing a bank at Chitterne for Wylye Valley Farm Shoot.   It’s steeper than it looks.

And then Rich Trevor Geoff and Lawrence have found a barn whilst working at Valley Farm.

Security fencing with two access gates for Wessex Water in Blandford Forum Dorset

Posted on by Debbie Newman

Something a little different

We erected a 2.4 m high “358 prison steel” mesh security fencing with two access gates for Wessex Water in Blandford Forum Dorset.  This was ‘green blend’ in colour so as to blend in with the landscape. The fencing was to provide safe storage of their water purification equipment.

Domestic sleeper retaining wall with close board fencing fitted on top in Market Lavington

Posted on by Debbie Newman

We supplied and erected a 15m domestic sleeper retaining wall with 1.8m close board fencing on top in Market Lavington.

Our client had an old conifer hedge which had passed its usefulness and had become an eyesore.  We removed the conifers and replaced them with a sleeper retaining wall which was perfect for the sloping ground and banking it needed to retain.  Then on top of this, we erected a 1.8m domestic close board fence.

“I used CC to remove my existing hedge and as William and his team were very competent and professional for that job I was happy to instruct them to build the new fence.  William came out and we discussed the fence and how it would be erected on a very difficult steeply sloping site and I was impressed by his approach and so was confident that the job would be well done.

The team who came out were very polite and efficient and I am glad to say they did not have a radio blaring out which often is the case with contractors;
 they left the site clean and tidy.  I was impressed that a couple of days after completion William came to check I was happy with the job.

I would be happy to recommend Conservation Contractors for similar work”.
