Wildlife Fencing
We provide a range of specialist fencing services for construction, ecological, and land management projects.
Our team installs fencing for protected species such as newts and slow worms, as well as badger and deer fencing for wildlife management. We also supply and install tree protection fencing in line with BS 5837 standards, alongside traditional post and rail fencing for a variety of sites.
With experience working for developers and landowners across the country, we deliver reliable fencing solutions tailored to each project’s requirements.
Newt Fencing
Great crested newts and the habitats they rely on are legally protected. To help meet planning conditions on development sites, newt exclusion fencing can be installed where required. In most cases, the fencing must follow the specifications set out in a licence issued by Natural England (or the relevant statutory authority in Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland), with the details approved by a qualified ecologist.
Using experienced newt fence installers ensures that the fencing is installed correctly and meets the requirements of the licence.
Slow Worm Fencing
JPR Environmental offers the full range of fencing specifications from temporary sheet and post to semi-permanent 1mm plastic panels and sheet and permanent HDPE planels. We can supply and install all brands of amphibian and reptile fencing according to our clients’ requirements. We can also supply and install a lifetime guaranteed, galvanised steel system.
Our slow-worm fencing services cover all stages of habitat isolation projects. First of all, we can mark out the fenceline in addition to installing the fencing and refugia mats to trap and translocate the slow-worms. Furthermore, we will undertake ongoing fence maintenance and finally, we will undertake the removal of fencing.
Tree Protection Fencing
Our tree protection fencing is fully compliant with BS 5837, the British Standard that governs the protection of trees in relation to construction. The fencing typically consists of a robust scaffold framework with welded mesh panels attached, creating a strong barrier that protects trees and their root protection areas during building works.
We work with developers across the country to install tree protection fencing on construction sites. As well as safeguarding trees, the fencing can also act as the main site security barrier, helping to limit public access and protect other site infrastructure during construction.
Badger Fencing
Using a post knocker to install the stakes for badger fencing.
If it is necessary for you to exclude badgers from areas of your development to fulfill your planning conditions, we can provide the fencing. We can also create artificial badger setts to relocate badgers to a different part of your site or offsite altogether.
We have a range of equipment including a post knocker, which enables us to install badger fencing and other types of fencing quickly and safely.
Post & Rail Fencing
If you need a fence to demark an area of your site such as along a public footpath, we have the equipment and experience to provide attractive post and rail fencing.
Deer Fencing
We can erect deer control fencing using galvanised steel wire or a lightweight hexagonal wire netting.
Depending on your geographical location and the type of deer you are trying to protect your land from, we have several options. We can provide fencing heights which will stop all types of deer including red and fallow.
We can also provide deer fencing which is ideal to exclude other browsing animals such as rabbits and hares.
