If you’ve got a knack for setting up fences, you’ll be glad to know those skills can easily turn into a steady income when you become a Tasker. Fencing jobs are among the most in-demand outdoor services on Airtasker, with homeowners and businesses consistently on the lookout for skilled, reliable support to install boundary fences, repair storm damage, or simply give their property a fresh new look.
Fencing jobs available on the platform vary in size, scope, and price point, perfect for anyone who values variety and flexibility. Whether you’re after weekend gigs or a full-time venture, you’ll have plenty of opportunity to explore. Some fencing Taskers prefer picking up quick repair fencing jobs that fit into their schedules, while others secure ongoing work by building long-term client relationships with builders, real estate agents, or strata managers. If you're punctual, neat, and handy with tools, there’s solid money to be made as a Tasker.
Installing new fencing is one of the most common and highest-paying fencing jobs on Airtasker. You could install timber paling fences, Colorbond panels, picket fences, pool fencing, or decorative garden fences. The typical work includes removing existing fencing, digging post holes, setting posts in concrete, and attaching panels or rails.
This is a great way to earn because installation jobs usually pay by the metre or as a full project, which means larger properties add up fast. You'll need to have access to basic tools like a post hole digger, level, cordless drill, and saws, and it helps to have a trusty ute or trailer to bring your materials anywhere.
From leaning posts to broken panels and rusted fittings, fence repair jobs are constant. Some clients may book an appointment for a quick fix after bad weather, while others simply prefer getting their fences repaired instead of shelling out more for replacements.
Repair tasks are ideal for filling gaps between big installations. They require fewer materials and allow you to offer faster turnaround. Another plus is they can often lead to more work when clients see your craftsmanship!
Key skills you’ll need for this type of fencing jobs include spotting structural issues, matching materials, and properly securing existing parts. You can also offer to inspect the entire fence while on-site, which can be an opportunity to upsell other minor maintenance tasks. It also pays to stay responsive. Many people post urgent fencing jobs after storms, and quick responses typically bring Taskers repeat clients who appreciate the effort.
Gates are usually the weakest part of a fence setup. Not only do they tend to sag or drag, but they may sometimes fail to latch properly. Specializing in gate installation or adjustments is a brilliant niche to focus on as a Tasker. Some fencing jobs you can expect include hanging new gates, realigning hinges, replacing latches, and even adding self-closing features for pool safety.
For this type of work, you'll need precision in measuring and leveling, as well as experience with timber or metal fittings. Make sure to carry spare hinges and latches so you can offer on-the-spot fixes or add-ons like hardware upgrades!
Many clients want their new fences painted or stained for protection and visual appeal. You can offer this as a follow-up for installs or as a standalone fencing job. With brushes, rollers, drop sheets, and the right products, you can double your income from the same project.
Fence staining and painting are ideal seasonal or maintenance jobs. Offering package deals, such as prep work and painting, can boost your hourly rate while saving clients time. It's a popular fencing job that highlights your attention to detail.
Temporary fencing — such as for events, construction sites, or pool compliance — is a fast-growing niche among Taskers. These jobs usually involve delivering materials, setting up the fencing, and occasionally maintaining it. They require basic tools and transport, but depend heavily on reliability and timing.
If you can offer quick availability and an even quicker turnaround, this niche is gold. Build relationships with event organizers or builders, and you’ll have yourself some regular fencing jobs.
Clients with sloped yards often need both retaining walls and fences. If you can offer both services, you open the door to higher-value fencing jobs with less competition. These combo tasks require thorough planning, a strategic mind for managing materials, and confidence in quoting, but the payoff is notable and can reward you with broader renovation work.
If you've other skills, such as fixing the drainage, this is something worth highlighting in your profile. This is because being a one-person solution can make you very attractive to property owners.
Preparation is crucial to boosting your earnings from fencing jobs. Keep your tools maintained, your vehicle stocked, and be ready to start jobs swiftly. Clients prefer Taskers who can get on-site and get the job done without delay.
Good communication matters. Make it a habit to message clients before your arrival, lay out your plan to ensure you’re on the same page, and keep them updated on every step before and even during the actual job. Giving them a smooth, friendly experience can guarantee five-star reviews, and you know that means better chances at landing more fencing jobs!
Most importantly, always document your work by taking before-and-after photos. Having these as proof of the quality of your work and performance helps build up your name as a trusted, go-to fencing Tasker. Aside from showcasing your skills online, doing this can also protect you in disputes.
