Empress Fencing Team
About Us
Empress Fencing was established by Andrew Ireland in 1996 on the site of a previous sawmill. The business has grown to become one of the leading manufacturers and suppliers of fencing materials and timber products in the Lancashire area, supplying agricultural, commercial and domestic customers.
Over the years Andrew has been joined by several family members and long-serving staff, who work together to provide the type of service you expect from a local business – a friendly welcome, good product knowledge and access to the staff in charge of your order.
The business expanded its site in 2000 and has slowly carried out building projects over the years in order to bring the machinery and buildings up to date. The newest addition to the site is a new office and shop, which has enabled us to increase our product range.
With the purchase of an adjoining wholesale business in 2019, Empress Fencing is now a trusted supplier of fencing boards to timber suppliers in and around the northwest. This has enabled us to expand our capabilities to cut more of our own timber and has also ensured a good continuity of supply for our own products, such as hardwood logs for sale.
Aims & ethos
Over the years the Empress Fencing team has worked hard to establish a reputation for quality and good service. We constantly aim to provide customers with a quality product which suits their individual needs. We strive to listen and use our extensive knowledge of the timber industry and our excellent supplier links in order to serve you to our best ability.
Ribble Valley Business Awards
We have been absolutely delighted to be finalists in many categories over the years at our local business awards, winning several of them over time. As the finalists are nominated by the public, these awards really tell us something positive about our profile amongst the local community.
Got fence panels and a dog kennel here, each 5 years old and never seen any weathering. Well worth every penny. Top quality stuff.
To Andrew and everyone at Empress Fencing. Thank you for all the work you have done for us and the patience you have shown.
Thanks so much for the log slices for our table centre pieces at the wedding. They looked perfect and we had a fantastic day.
A very big THANK YOU to you all for the friendly welcome we received on our first visit to Empress Fencing, whilst looking for some gates for our driveway.
We would also like to say thank for the time and patience given to us whilst answering all our questions and queries and giving us some good advice at the same time. It was very nice (in this day and age) to be able to come to a friendly family run business and be able to talk to people who knew what they were talking about.
The gates are first class and exactly as good as you said they would be and should last me for years to come.
Just to let you all know that I am very pleased with the log store. Exactly as specified and nice and sturdy.
Thank you for the prompt attention to and delivery of my recent order. We were recommended to Empress Fencing by our new neighbours and we are so pleased that we took up their recommendation.
Since my first email request for information/prices, to my visit to your premises (where all of your staff were excellent), to the young guy who was so helpful when he delivered my order your staff/firms care and attention has been fantastic!
