Instal star prickets, chiken mesh, and matting

$450

Bayview Heights QLD, Australia

19th Oct 2024

I want to create a cover so I don't see the AC condenser and the pipes of my cottage, from the yard. My idea is to install 4 star prickets (or long garden stakes) of 1.8m length, attach some chicken mesh to them, and then the coconut matting (that you currently see on the slope). The price is for your time; I'll cover all the materials. The third image is very important and is an idea to make things easier.
