What customer service do fencing contractors provide?

Fencing near you includes installing, repairing, and replacing a fence. Fencing contractors can perform almost any fencing task, be it building a fence from scratch or removing your existing fence. They can also provide budget-friendly pool fences, old fencing, or front yard fencing services.

There's a huge range of fencing services you can request on Airtasker. 

Fencing service - fence installation prep 

Getting your fence installed includes surveying your boundary fence line and planning fence placement. This step entails measuring and marking out the fenced area. 

Fencing installation near you can also help you choose the best type of fence based on your fencing requirements and budget. Popular fencing options include wood fences (around $100–$300 per metre), wrought iron fences (approximately $180–$600 per metre), and chain link fences (about $50–$150 per metre).

If you need to remove a tree obstructing the site, fencing contractors near you can help with that as well. As for your sourcing needs, delivery Taskers can pick up and deliver your fence panels to you. 

Fencing service - fence installation 

Whether it's garden fencing, pool fencing, pet fencing, or even temporary fencing, the construction starts with putting up the end posts and corner posts. Typically, a fence installer digs up post holes and uses concrete to set the posts. Once the fence posts are set, your fence fitter will then put up the fence panels.  

Your fence should work in harmony with the landscaping. For instance, you’d want to avoid growing vines that could damage your fence. A landscaper can advise you on your landscaping decisions so that you can avoid costly mistakes. Both fencing and garden services are available on our platform. Taskers can even assemble your outdoor furniture if you’re setting up a cosy deck in your garden.  

Fencing service - fence repair 

Fence repair is a cheaper and faster alternative to a total fence replacement, with the average fence repair cost ranging from as low as $75. 

Methods for fence repair vary depending on the damage. To fix a rotted wood fence, a fencer near you may remove the affected panels and replace them with new ones.  

If your fence posts are loose due to soil erosion, fencing specialists may use soil or gravel backfill to steady the posts. Attach a photo to your task or schedule an on-site inspection. As an additional customer service, fencing contractors can assess your fence and recommend suitable solutions. 

Fencing service - fence painting

Fence painting services are a great solution if your fence is looking tired or if you simply want to change the colour of your fence. Hire a Tasker to freshen up your fence with spray paint or touch-up paint. You can also avail of staining customer service to protect your wooden fence from moisture and bring out the wood’s natural beauty. 

Fencing service - fence staining

There are two different ways to stain a fence, and one of them is by using a paint roller, which is ideal if you’re not in a rush. Staining a wood fence with a roller may involve other materials such as a paint tray, a paintbrush, and rags. Your Tasker will use the roller to cover your fence with the stain and apply one to two coats. 

Using a sprayer to stain a fence can take less time. Just like when using a roller, the Tasker should use the right materials to protect the area around your fence from overspray. They will then pour the stain into a sprayer and cover your fence with it. The duration will depend on the size and type of your fence, but the process can take several hours to several days.

Once they’re finished, they will inspect the fence, clear the surrounding area, and pack up their equipment. All you need to do is wait for the fence to dry completely. If having your fence stained using a roller doesn’t seem like the right fit for you, don’t worry because there is another available option.

Fencing service - fence removal 

If your fence is beyond repair, or you’re looking to replace your chicken wire with a nicer fence, a fence removal Tasker can help. Fences provide safety, but they can also trap wildlife in a wooded lot. In such cases, you may be better off removing your fence. 

Whichever your reason for fence removal, a fencing contractor can tear down that fence you’ve always wanted to get rid of. Leave the strenuous tasks to your fencing contractor, from digging out your fence posts to taking the rubbish to the tip.

I'm building a new single story house and the builder has removed part of the side fence to build the garage wall. The fence removed is longer than the garage wall. I need someone to install new posts and fences on both side of the garage wall to cover the gaps. It's about 1m on each side. The fence height is 1.8m. Ideally you'll be a fence installer, carpenter or a handyman who is skilled at installing straight and sturdy fence. See photos for a better understanding.

Highly recommend Jamie. Did a great job for me.

Replace Hinges on Pool Fence

$200

Kew VIC, Australia

31st Aug 2025

I need a tradesperson to fix the pool fence gate hinges at my property in Kew (3101). The pool gate was flagged as non-compliant in a recent safety inspection. The issues are: The gate does not reliably close and latch from any position. The gate does not close properly when a small force (about 250g up or down) is applied near the latch. What needs to be done: Adjust the hinge tension so the gate self-closes and latches every time. If the hinges cannot be adjusted, they will need to be replaced with compliant self-closing pool gate hinges (hinges must be at least 900mm apart or fitted with non-climbable caps). Goal: Make the pool gate fully compliant with AS 1926.1 – 2012 standards so it passes reinspection before the due date. Please provide: A quote for the adjustment or replacement. Confirmation that you have experience with pool safety compliance.
