Pressure-treated gravel boards for Birtley — extends fence life by 5+ years
Common Birtley jobs we supply gravel board for: Birtley sits between Gateshead and Chester-le-Street, so we get a mix of old-estate replacements (60s and 70s housing) and new-build trade supply. Vigo and Eighton Banks have steeper streets where stepped fencing's common rather than raked. Gate posts and short closeboard runs for the older Birtley terraces are regular.
If it's bigger than a back-garden run — say a developer plot or a multi-house estate — ring the yard and we'll quote the whole load with delivery built in.

What Birtley looks like for fencing
Heavy clay soil in pockets around Lamesley and Ouston — rapid-set postcrete is essential, otherwise posts move before the concrete sets properly. Birtley's hilly streets mean we'll often step a fence (each panel level, drop between posts) rather than rake it (panel follows the slope) — looks neater and lasts longer.
Neighbourhoods we drop to: Lamesley, Vigo, Eighton Banks, Kibblesworth, Ouston, Pelton Fell, Ravensworth. Plus surrounding postcodes (DH3, NE11) — drop your postcode at checkout if you're unsure.
