More Information

Reducing Noise With Acoustic Fencing

Acoustic fencing uses dense, solid materials and specific installation methods to reduce the amount of sound that passes through your boundary. While no fence will eliminate road or neighbour noise completely, a properly installed acoustic fence can reduce it meaningfully, making your garden quieter and more relaxing. Our team advises on the most effective acoustic solutions for the specific noise issue you are dealing with, whether that is road noise, commercial activity, or general neighbour noise.

Privacy Fencing for a More Comfortable Garden

Privacy fencing gives you the outdoor space you deserve without feeling on display. Taller solid panels, closeboard fencing above standard height, or louvred designs that block sightlines while allowing airflow are all options we install across Burgess Hill. The right privacy fencing depends on the direction the overlooking comes from and how tall your boundary needs to be. We will assess your site and recommend the best solution.

Planning and Building Regulations

Privacy and acoustic fencing can sometimes trigger planning requirements, particularly for fences above two metres in height or in conservation areas. Some properties near Burgess Hill town centre and in the surrounding villages have restrictions on fence heights. M&S Landscaping will advise you on any potential planning considerations during your free quote, and we recommend checking with Mid Sussex District Council before committing to a taller fence.

We installed tall acoustic closeboard fencing for a homeowner in Hickstead whose garden backed directly onto the A23 slip road. The road noise was a constant issue in their outdoor space. We installed concrete posts with solid closeboard panels at maximum permitted height, which made a significant difference to how usable and peaceful the garden felt.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does acoustic fencing actually work in Burgess Hill?

Yes, acoustic fencing genuinely reduces sound transmission when installed correctly with solid materials and no gaps at the base or sides. It will not eliminate all noise, but it can make a noticeable difference to gardens near roads or commercial areas in Burgess Hill and surrounding villages.

How tall can a privacy fence be in Burgess Hill?

In most cases, you can build a fence up to two metres in height in Burgess Hill without planning permission. Fences facing a road or in designated areas may have lower limits. M&S Landscaping will advise on the specific rules for your property during your free quote visit.

Can you install privacy fencing on a sloped garden in Burgess Hill?

Yes. M&S Landscaping installs fencing on sloped and uneven ground across Burgess Hill and Mid Sussex. We can step the fence panels down the slope or use a gravel board system to follow the ground level. We will advise on the best approach during your site visit.
