Top Fence Installation related questions

Budget and function are primary factors to consider when you’re choosing a fence. A chain link fence is an excellent option if you’re looking to secure your property and you’re on a tight budget. Meanwhile, wood fencing or Colorbond fencing can offer more aesthetic value to your home. Your fencing specialist can guide you in fence selection, so you can make sure you’re choosing the most suitable material for your needs. 

Yes, feel free to request a comprehensive fencing service. We’ll connect you with Taskers who can have everything covered, from sourcing materials to putting up your fence. Your Tasker can purchase your fencing materials from the hardware store on your behalf. Otherwise, you can opt to buy the fence panels yourself and hire a fence fitter to do the installation. 

Fence installation usually takes 3-5 days. This time frame includes removing your old fence panels and installing the new fence. Timelines may vary depending on your Tasker’s availability and skill level. Working time will also depend on the complexity of your task. Also, do note that some fencing types are faster to build than others. Please discuss project details with your Tasker to get a more accurate timeline. 

A properly-built and well-maintained fence can last for 15-20 years. But fence lifespans depend on the type of fencing. Wooden fences last 10-12 years, while Colorbond fences last for 60 years or more. Weather conditions and exposure to pests may shorten the lifespan of your fence. However, you can prolong the life of your fence through regular repairs and maintenance. Easily schedule fence maintenance whenever you need it by booking fencing Taskers on our platform. 

A repair should be your first option if you’re looking to save money and quickly fix your fence. But if more than 20% of your fence panels are damaged, you may be better off replacing your entire fence. If a fence repair is too troublesome or costly, then a replacement may be a more efficient solution. Your Tasker can offer advice on whether you should repair or replace your fence. 

No, you don’t need to tell your neighbour about your plans to build a fence – as long as your fence falls within your property lines and follows local laws. (If you need expert advice, you can also put up a task for fencing consultation!) Regardless, talking to your neighbours about your fencing plans may be beneficial anyway. Not only is it a common courtesy, but it can help you avoid legal trouble if your neighbour disputes your fence.  

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.
