About Oldfield Park
What decking and fencing typically look like in Oldfield Park
Oldfield Park gardens are family-sized — the Victorian and Edwardian terraces and semis here have 10–15m of usable rear garden depth, often with a back lane or alley for access. Most properties are outside the Bath Conservation Area (which runs through central Bath).
Honest note: The descriptions below are generalisations — what's typical or commonly found in Oldfield Park, based on the area's documented garden sizes and house types. Every property is different, so Tom will always confirm what's actually there on the site visit before quoting.
Common jobs
Common decking + fencing patterns in Oldfield Park
Common Oldfield Park patterns: 4m × 3m or 4m × 4m low rear decking on the Victorian and Edwardian semis, full rear re-fencing (5–8 panels per project), and front garden boundaries in a range of materials. Most Oldfield Park gardens fit a useful decking area without overwhelming the original garden layout.
Material choices typical for Oldfield Park
Most Oldfield Park jobs use softwood close-board fencing (budget-friendly) or composite (low-maintenance). Decking is usually softwood or composite — cedar is rarer because the family-sized gardens don't always justify the premium. The family-friendly setting means low-maintenance materials (composite) are popular.
