Looking for new fencing in Dundalk? Seamus & Pete install all types of residential and commercial fencing across Dundalk and County Louth. Whether you need a single panel replaced on the Muirhevnamor estate or a full perimeter fence around a new build in Blackrock, we supply quality materials and install them to last.
Fencing Options for Dundalk Properties
We install a wide range of fencing styles to suit every Dundalk property and budget:
PVC / uPVC Fencing
Maintenance-free and built to last. PVC fencing won’t rot, warp or need painting. Available in white, grey and woodgrain finishes. The most popular choice across Dundalk housing estates for front and rear gardens.
Timber Panel Fencing
The classic garden fence. We use pressure-treated timber panels fitted to sturdy concrete or timber posts. Available in closeboard, lap panel and hit-and-miss styles for different levels of privacy. A practical option for semi-detached homes throughout Dundalk.
Post and Rail Fencing
A traditional countryside style, ideal for larger properties on the outskirts of Dundalk towards Ravensdale and the Cooley Peninsula. Available in timber or metal. Often used for boundary definition rather than privacy.
Concrete Post and Panel
Extremely durable and low maintenance. Concrete gravel boards at the base prevent rot, while concrete posts mean no future replacements. A smart long-term investment for Dundalk gardens.
Composite Fencing
A modern option that combines the look of timber with the durability of composite materials. No painting, no rotting, and available in a range of colours. Growing in popularity across new developments in Dundalk.

Dundalk Fencing Considerations
Dundalk sits at the head of Dundalk Bay, and properties closer to the coast - particularly in Blackrock, Haggardstown and Bay Estate - can take a battering from easterly winds. We use deeper post holes (minimum 600mm), concrete post bases, and recommend solid panel or concrete fencing for exposed locations. For sheltered estates further inland, standard timber panel fencing performs well.
As the largest town in County Louth, Dundalk has a wide mix of housing - from Victorian terraces in the town centre to modern estates in Marshes Upper and Mount Avenue. We adapt our approach to suit each property, whether that means working in tight rear gardens with limited access or fencing large perimeters on rural properties.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the legal fence height in Dundalk?
Garden fences up to 2 metres (6.5 feet) in your rear garden typically don’t need planning permission. Front garden fences are limited to 1.2 metres. Always check with Louth County Council if you’re unsure.
How long does fencing take to install?
A typical Dundalk garden (30 to 40 metres of fencing) takes 1 to 2 days. Larger properties or commercial jobs may take longer. We can usually start within a week of your quote being approved.
Do you take down old fencing?
Yes - we remove and dispose of old fencing as part of the job. We can also work with existing posts if they’re still sound, which reduces cost.
Can you install fencing on uneven ground?
Absolutely. Many gardens in Dundalk - particularly older properties around the Castletown area - sit on sloped ground. We step the panels to follow the contour of the land for a neat, professional finish.
