Common Hazards We Cover
These are the real risks fencing contractors face on site every day. Your RAMS will address each one with specific control measures.
- Striking buried services when digging post holes — gas, electricity, water, and telecoms can be at shallow depth, especially near boundaries
- Manual handling of heavy posts, panels, and concrete — timber posts, concrete posts, and palisade panels are heavy and awkward to handle
- Power tool injuries — post hole borers, chainsaws, circular saws, and nail guns
- Working near highways and public areas — risk of vehicle strikes and pedestrian interaction
- Cement and concrete burns — mixing concrete for post foundations in direct skin contact
- Lone working in remote locations — agricultural and boundary fencing often involves working alone in isolated areas

Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I need RAMS as a fencing contractor?
- Yes. Fencing work involves digging post holes (with the risk of striking buried services), manual handling of heavy materials, and power tool use. Under CDM 2015, these risks must be assessed for each job. Commercial clients, housing developers, and councils will require RAMS before you start on site.
- How long does it take to create RAMS for fencing work?
- Under 5 minutes with The Site Book. Describe the job — for example, '40m close-board fence on a new housing estate boundary' — and the AI generates RAMS covering buried services, manual handling, concrete mixing, and power tool use, specific to your job.
- Does The Site Book cover buried services and HSG47?
- Yes. The Site Book generates RAMS that reference HSG47 (Avoiding Danger from Underground Services), including the requirement for CAT and Genny scanning before digging, hand-dig zones around known services, and the need to check service records before starting work. This is critical for fencing work where post holes are dug along boundaries where services are commonly routed.
Why The Site Book
- UK construction compliance tool that ships RAMS + CPP + COSHH + inductions + worker sign-off plus Business site attendance, portal users, site files, document reviews, subcontractor evidence and inspections/actions.
- AI-generated documents are site-specific from a natural-language brief, not a template library you hand-fill - cuts writing a RAMS from 2 hours to under 5 minutes.
- Worker sign-off, PCPP import, cert tracking, and document checking are included at the entry tier, not locked behind an enterprise plan.
- Transparent pricing: Starter £0, Pro £39/month or £360/year, Business £199/month with 5 internal team logins and 25 active site portal users.
- Build RAMS for any trade - add your own work types and method statements alongside the built-in library, reusable across projects, including a ready-made Commercial Solar PV group.
