Chester-le-Street postcrete supply — sets in 5 minutes, fence up in 30
Postcrete bag is what most Chester-le-Street fencers reach for first. Postcrete is a rapid-set concrete sold in 20kg bags. Pour around the post in a hole part-filled with water, give it a stir with a stick, walk away — sets stiff in 5–10 minutes, full strength inside an hour. Saves a day vs traditional wet mix. We deliver across Chester-le-Street and the wider Durham footprint — Next-day.
Whether you're laying a single back-garden run on a Pelton or Great Lumley property or quoting a multi-house developer plot, the timber's the same: treated softwood, sized properly, dropped where you need it.

What Chester-le-Street looks like for fencing
The River Wear borders some of the Chester-le-Street and Lumley plots — riverbank fencing wants more careful spec (treated, gravel boards mandatory, posts set further back from the bank to avoid washout). Mostly fertile loam soil, posts go in easy.
Neighbourhoods we drop to: Pelton, Great Lumley, Bournmoor, North Lodge, Plawsworth, Waldridge, Edmondsley, Sacriston, Newfield. Plus surrounding postcodes (DH2, DH3) — drop your postcode at checkout if you're unsure.
