How our team can help with your fencing project

Fencing is not just about marking boundaries; it’s about ensuring privacy, safety, and enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your property. Here’s how a new fence from Tradie Taskforce can benefit you:

Privacy

A well-constructed fence provides a physical barrier that shields your property from the outside world. This means relaxing in your backyard without worrying about neighbours or passersby. Whether sunbathing, having a family barbeque, or enjoying a quiet moment outside, a privacy fence ensures your activities remain your own.

Keep Pets Safe

A sturdy and well-designed fence is essential for pet owners. It prevents pets from wandering off, getting lost, or potentially encountering dangers like traffic or other animals. It provides a safe space for them to play and exercise without constant supervision. You can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry friends are safe and secure in your own yard.

Peace

Your home should be a sanctuary where you can relax and recharge. A fence helps create a peaceful, personal space by blocking out noise and distractions from the outside world. Whether it’s traffic noise, loud neighbours, or just the visual hustle and bustle of the neighbourhood, a good fence helps keep it out of your personal haven.

Security

Fences act as a deterrent to intruders, adding an extra layer of security to your home. A good fence can make it harder for would-be burglars to enter your property undetected. A strong quality fence, especially one with a secure gate, is a simple and effective way to enhance the safety of your family and protect your property.

Value

An attractive fence can significantly boost the value of your property. It enhances the exterior look of your home, adding to its curb appeal. Fences also add perceived living space by defining property boundaries and outdoor living areas. If you decide to sell, potential buyers will appreciate both the practical and aesthetic benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most frequent questions and answers about fence replacement and repair.

What materials are available for fencing?

Different materials such as wood, vinyl, aluminum, steel, and chain link are commonly used for fences. Each material has its advantages and disadvantages, and the best choice depends on your specific needs and preferences.

How long does it take to install a fence?

The duration of the installation process can vary greatly depending on the size of the area, the type of fence, and the specific conditions of your property. An average backyard fence might take a couple of days to a week to install.

How much does it cost to install a fence?

The cost of fence installation can vary widely based on the material, size, design, and labour costs in your area. You’ll need to get a quote from a contractor to get a precise figure.

How often does a fence need maintenance?

The frequency of maintenance depends on the material. Wood fences might need to be painted or stained every few years, while vinyl or aluminium fences might require less frequent maintenance.

What is the best type of fence for my property?

The “best” type of fence depends on your needs. If privacy is your main concern, a tall, solid fence might be best. If you’re more interested in aesthetics, a decorative metal or vinyl fence might be a better choice.

Do I need a permit to install a fence?

In many areas, you’ll need a permit to install a fence, especially if it’s above a certain height. You should check with your local building department to find out the specific regulations in your area.

How do I know where my property lines are?

Before installing a fence, it’s important to know exactly where your property lines are. You can often find this information on your property deed, or you can hire a surveyor to determine the boundaries.

What do I do if my fence gets damaged?

If your fence gets damaged, you might be able to repair it, or you might need to replace part or all of it. A fencing professional can help you determine the best course of action
