Josh did a fantastic job on building a fence on our deck. He was so happy, friendly and willing to listen and thoroughly answer any questions I had. He took the time to listen to my requests and communicated so brilliantly to make sure he completed our project to our desires. Josh paid such thoughtful attention to detail and we are so, so happy with the end result. He used quality timber and fixings as well. I will happily use Josh again when the needs arise, and recommend him to my family and friends.

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.

Blackburn North VIC 3130, Australia

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.

Very easy - well played
