Fence cost

siobhan41, Feb 21, 12:42am
Just had a quote come in to replace a fence and wonder if the price sounds alright.

14m 1.5m high capped.
100 x 75 x 9
100 x 50 x 4.8 x 6
150 x 19 x 87

$1100 including gst and removing fence.

yeap, very fair. is the neighbour sharing the cost?

Don't get me started on the neighbour .
We will pay as we think the current .7m fence isn't high enough to keep our toddler safe from the row next door.
Caused a dispute even with us saying we would pay as it's our child causing it to be replaced, though we have legal advice that we could request the neighbours to contribute.

Sounds on the cheap side

Wtf stupid phone . mad face propped up completely of its own accord. Not an angry comment

yes, that price is good
I would recommend using 150x25 pailings though, wont add much to the cost and will make a better job

Thanks all.
Will price up the larger palings.
I did ask for a very solid fence as we won't be moving for many years so do wonder why he went for the smaller paling.
last thing I want is one of the fences that are popping up in the subdivisions that are twisted within 12 months.

Priced the cost difference in palings.
2.05 for 150 x 19
2.60 for 150 x 25
