A Dixon Fencing Services in short

A Dixon Fencing Services is a Newport fencing and garden contractor supplying and erecting everything from panel runs to steel and high-security fencing, with patios, pergolas and garden maintenance from the same firm. Free quotes by phone or email keep the first step simple, and our verdict is that Dixon suits security-grade or bespoke boundaries around Newport and the wider county.

The record shows a Newport firm at Dungarven Drive covering Shropshire including Telford, with fencing as its core trade and patios, pergolas and garden maintenance alongside it [1][2]. The limited company has been active since 2014 at its published address, with decades in the trade claimed on the site. Our view is that this single-trade focus fits boundaries that need real thought, while garden extras stay secondary to the fence itself.

Customer evidence is warm but thin: a near five-star Google record across a small set of reviews [3]. Every review carries more load when there are few of them, so one rough job would move the picture more than at a high-volume yard. Our view is that the rating reads well but the volume leaves Dixon short of the leader on proven depth, which is where it drops its place.

The limited company has been active since 2014 at its published Newport address [2]. Constructionline registration and CITB accreditation are stated on the firm's own site [1]. What counts against Dixon is paperwork: no insurance detail is published, so the public record says nothing about cover either way.

Questions about A Dixon Fencing Services

Is A Dixon Fencing Services any good?

On the evidence, yes for security-grade and bespoke boundaries: Dixon sits second of the ten, with a strong if small Google record and two trade memberships stated on its site. Read the full page and its sources, then ask for proof of cover with your free quote by phone or email.

Is A Dixon Fencing Services Constructionline registered?

Constructionline registration and CITB accreditation are stated on the firm's own website [1]. There is no mandatory register for fencing contractors, so these are voluntary memberships rather than licences. Ask for the membership details in writing and check anything you are relying on before work starts. Keep any membership claim beside the quote, so the paperwork tells one story.

What does A Dixon Fencing Services charge?

It publishes no prices or rates, though free quotes by phone or email are offered [1]. That means your quote does the talking: describe the run, the ground and any gates, and ask for an itemised fixed quote. Confirm what the price covers before you agree anything. Photographs of the run, the ground and any gates help the firm price accurately from the first call.

Where does A Dixon Fencing Services work?

The contractor works from Newport, covering Shropshire including Telford [1]. Fencing, patios, pergolas and garden maintenance all come from the same firm. Send your postcode with the job description to confirm you are covered, and ask for the quote route that suits you. Villages beyond the county may fall outside the round, so confirm cover with your postcode first.

How is A Dixon Fencing Services ranked?

It ranks second of the ten fencing contractors in our September round, picked for security and bespoke domestic fencing. Its review record is strong but short, so it trails the leader on weight of evidence. Read the full review, then ask for the itemised quote. Positions move as fresh reviews and records arrive, so read the current card rather than relying on memory.

What do customer reviews say about A Dixon Fencing Services?

Google shows a near five-star record, which reads strongly but rests on a small set of reviews [3]. With few reviews on the books, each one shapes the picture, so look at how recent they are and what jobs they describe. No second review source was found for this round. Treat the record as promising rather than proven, and weigh recent local examples from the quote visit beside it.

How does A Dixon Fencing Services compare with the others in the round?

It sits second of the ten, behind Arcox on review volume and ahead of the paving-led firms on fencing focus. No rival here matches its steel and high-security range for domestic boundaries. Against the landscapers below, Dixon suits fence-first jobs while they suit fences inside bigger schemes. Compare it with one landscaper on the same written scope to see which shape fits.
