What do fence installation services include?

Fence installation services include all tasks related to building your fence. From planning your fence installation to putting up your fence, Taskers are here to help! Experienced fence fitters will also make sure your fence follows local council laws. You can hire a Tasker for any of the following fencing services. 

Fence selection 

Fencing experts can recommend the best type of fencing based on your budget and specific needs. Some popular fence types include Colorbond, timber, chain wire, and brick. Fences come in a variety of materials, but Taskers can guide you through your fence selection process. 

As a result, you can make sure to weigh all the pros and cons before picking the fence for you. Your Tasker may even be able to help you find suppliers once you’ve made a decision. 

Fence installation prep 

Get your home ready for fence installation by scheduling a site inspection with a fencing expert. A qualified fence fitter can survey your boundary fence line and plan the placement of your fence. With proper planning, you can avoid overspending on fence materials. 

What’s more, you’ll be able to anticipate any technical issues before your installation. If you need to clear the site, you can hire a Tasker to remove a tree or dispose of garden rubbish before your installation. 

Fence installation 

Fence installation includes digging up post holes, installing fence posts, and putting up the fence panels. You can find fence fitters who can build any type of fence, from wood fencing to aluminium fencing. If you’re adding plants to your outdoor area, a landscaper can provide expert guidance and help design your garden. They can also help you avoid costly mistakes, such as growing vines that could damage your fence. 

Always wanted a cosy patio for relaxing with your family and friends? You can hire Taskers to build you a deck and assemble your outdoor furniture as well. 

Acoustic fence installation 

Acoustic fencing is a good solution for residents who live on noisy main roads. Find acoustic fence installers near you by putting up a task. We’ll connect you with specialists who’ll set up your soundproof fencing to minimise the noise entering your home. 

Taskers can also do other specialised fencing services like electric horse fence installation. Electric horse fencing provides a mild shock to deter horses from pushing through the fence. 

Fence maintenance and repair 

Fence maintenance prolongs the life of your fence. What’s more, repairs are often cheaper solutions than a complete fence replacement. For wooden fence upkeep, your Tasker may stain your wooden panels to prevent moisture. 

Other fence repair tasks include replacing rotted fence panels and reinforcing loose fence posts. You can also avail of fence painting services to freshen up the look of your fence.

Paling Fence Post Installation and Fence Straightening

$500

Balwyn North VIC 3104, Australia

16th Apr 2025

Hi, Requesting assistance to fix our fence. This includes the digging of 6-7 new fence posts next to existing rotten posts and straightening of the fence. The fence beams and palings are in good condition. The posts have only been damaged at the ground level, so new posts could be bolted directly onto the old posts for straightening of the fence. The fence is 1800mm high and approximately 20m long. The 7 posts include both end posts. New pine posts would be adequate. Digging of holes to 700mm depth with 100mm diameter post digger is okay. No need for concrete. We can provide a post digger and petrol, but require the 2.4m high posts and bolts (2 x coach bolts per column to fix the new and old columns together) to be supplied . The new posts are to be notched around the beams also. There is access through the house to carry the new posts and all around the fence. There is also power on site. Please see below images of the fence. Completion of the task anytime between this Friday-Monday, preferred over the Easter weekend. The budget is only a number to plug into the system. Please advise your pricing.

Lee had a very thoughtful approach in how to fix our fence and delivered an excellent result. Great communication. Thanks Lee!
