The groundwork is done
We’ve spent years working out how to run a fencing and gates business properly: the suppliers, the pricing, the standards, and the way we look after customers. As a franchisee, you don’t have to figure any of that out for yourself.
A territory that’s yours
Your territory is exclusive to you, and we map every one using demographic data, property profiles and drive times, so there’s enough work in it to grow well past one van.

What it takes to get started
Most of your set-up can be funded through franchise finance, so you get started with a smaller deposit and manageable monthly repayments rather than paying it all up front. Subject to status. The brochure gives a guide to the fees, start-up costs and what a territory can turn over, and we’ll go through the numbers properly with you so you can plan around your own situation.
Is this right for you?
Our name is built on the people who carry it. We’re looking for partners who share our standards and our ambition, people we can back who can build something lasting. Have a read of the lists below and see which side you land on.
This could be for you if…
- You want to build a proper business, not just buy yourself a wage
- You care about doing the job right, even when it's the harder option
- You're good with people and easy to deal with
- You're happy to follow a system that already works
- You're hands-on, eager to learn, and happy working outdoors in all weathers
It’s probably not for you if…
- You're looking for an investment to run at arm's length, rather than a business to work in
- You want something part-time or alongside another job
- You'd rather win work on price than on quality
- You want to do things your own way rather than follow a proven system
- You're expecting a guaranteed income from day one, rather than something you build over time
A word from Chris
I started Tatton Fencing in 2012 with a van and a set of tools, and one rule: do the job properly. Now we’ve got up to five super-efficient teams on the road each day, an office that never misses an enquiry, and customers who come back year after year, as well as a reputation that I’m incredibly proud of.
Everything we’ve worked out here, the systems, the standards, the way we look after customers, works. Franchising is how we take it nationwide, properly, with the right people running it. Join us as a founding franchisee and you’re not a number, you’re building this with us, and it’s me you’ll be dealing with, not a helpdesk.
When I’m not working you’ll usually find me out on a run, or being kept busy by my wife and our two children. They’re what it’s all for.
If you think this is the right opportunity, I genuinely look forward to meeting you.
