Hi, I wonder if someone could give me a rough price per metre for a 1.8m high lapped paling fence. I think its about 36m long. I am going halves with a neighbour and I just want to roughly check the quote he has given. I realise there are other factors such as site clearance and rubbish removal.

Will you put it up yourself in a team with your neighbour, or get a bloke/bloke-ess in to do it?

You wouldn't consider getting a woman to do it?

$100 per metre for lapped palings seems very low considering the going rate is about $150m for standard 1.8m butted palings-AND the extra palings are about $6 something each, i hope youre not pricing work

Just had one done and it was just on $100 per meter . Palings here in Chch are 1/2 the cost you quote .

Just put up 24m of 1.8 high 150x20 palings, 50x100 rails (3) and 125x125 posts at 2.4 centres, total materials $1500. 20 man hours of labour. So $100/metre is pretty close.

125mm posts, probably oversize, but I bet they look nice.
