All sleepers →What Houghton-le-Spring looks like for fencing
The ex-mining estates were built fast with light-spec fencing — 3×3 posts, light rails — and we always upgrade on replacement. Mine-shaft surveys cover some streets so deep posts get awkward in pockets near old workings; if your job's flagged on a mining-zone map we'll spec metposts or concrete spurs instead.
Neighbourhoods we drop to: Hetton-le-Hole, Easington Lane, Penshaw, Newbottle, Eppleton, Shiney Row, Fence Houses, Hetton Downs. Plus surrounding postcodes (DH4, DH5) — drop your postcode at checkout if you're unsure.
