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.

Install lightweight side gate – handyman job, no concreting required

$200

Hughesdale VIC 3166, Australia

29th Apr 2026

Looking for a practical handyman to install a lightweight side gate between two units in Hughesdale. The setup: -Gate and frame are already purchased and on site - One side has an existing panel/post to attach to - The other side needs a support — looking at a no-dig/concrete-free post from Bunnings (e.g. ground spike anchor) Measurements: Total fence to path width: 133cm Gate width: 78cm Side panel: 31cm Path width: 84cm Gate height: 120cm Back panel height: 124.5cm Front panel height: 124.5cm (approx.) What we need: Someone to assess, source a suitable ground spike or stake from Bunnings (nearby), and install the gate so it opens and closes securely. No concreting, no panels, no major earthworks. Goal: Keep a dog contained. Function over form — doesn’t need to look perfect. Budget is $200 all-inclusive (your time + any hardware). Happy to discuss if you have a smart, cost-effective approach. This is a job for a confident handyman, not a fencing contractor. If you’ve hung a gate before, this is right up your alley.

Amazing work! Went above and beyond.
