Your local fencing and maintenance team in New Milton

Homes in New Milton

New Milton is mostly 20th-century family homes and bungalows, with older houses around Old Milton and the station, estates through Ashley and Fernhill, a lot of retirement bungalows and flats in Barton on Sea, and bigger plots with long boundaries out towards Bashley and Wootton.

Local conditions

Much of the ground round New Milton and Barton is clay, so post holes hold water and timber posts sit in the wet all winter. Gardens near the cliff top at Barton on Sea take the wind and salt straight off the sea, which is hard on panels and fixings.

Access & planning

Bungalows and estate houses usually have a side gate, but some terraces and town houses only have access through the house, so we check access from your photos before we quote.

On our New Forest run

We're based in Southampton and already cover Lymington and Christchurch, so New Milton, Barton on Sea and Ashley fit in with the rest of our work this side of the Forest. Send a few photos and we can usually give you a clear quote without anyone needing to come out first.

Fencing first

Most of what we get asked for round here is fencing: posts gone soft in wet clay, panels blown out by sea wind, concrete spurs and full replacements. William has been in construction for 15 years and the team has over 40 years between them, so we'll tell you straight whether a repair will do or a new fence is the better spend.

Damp and mould too

We also treat damp and mould, which often shows up as condensation mould in bungalows and flats near the sea. William spent over five years on damp and mould work for a large housing association in the south, so we look at what is causing it first and make good afterwards. See our damp and mould service.

Great job, had a spur put in to save the whole fence coming down. Short notice, good value and nice solid tidy job. Thanks William

Absolutely would definitely use SC maintenance again and have already inquired about a second job . Couldn’t thank William enough for coming out in the pouring rain to complete the job . Thank you so much and such a lovely gentleman with a lot of knowledge. Would highly recommend. .
