    Garden fencing in Dumfries: Homeowners vs renters

    For homeowners

    • You're usually responsible for fences on your property boundary, but double-check your title deeds or land registry plan.
    • You don't need permission unless your fence is over 2 metres high (or 1 metre if next to a road).
    • The fence's "good side" (the smooth side) is usually expected to face your neighbour.
    • It's a good idea to let your neighbour know of any upcoming plans with your garden fencing. (Read more in our guide to fencing ownership)

    For renters

    • Fence maintenance is typically your landlord’s responsibility. If there’s an issue, report it to them or the letting agent.
    • Avoid DIY fixes without permission, even for minor repairs.
