How we work
- Free on-site measure, then an itemised quote in writing within 48 hours.
- One crew from the quote through to completion. No subcontractors.
- Every post is set in a concrete footing.
- Post depth and footings are set for the ground and exposure on the individual block, not to one standard recipe.
- Removal and disposal of an old fence is quoted as its own line, so it can be included or left out.
Shared boundary fences
A dividing fence between two properties is generally a shared cost in Tasmania under the Boundary Fences Act 1908. The practical first step is agreeing on the fence in writing, which is why quotes are itemised and can be handed to a neighbour.
We build to the standards. We are not the regulator, we do not certify, and we do not give legal advice on fencing disputes. Contested matters go to the relevant council and the Act.
What we do not do
- We do not repair or certify retaining walls. We will build a fence on top of one, but the wall itself is another trade.
- We do not treat an ordinary picket or slat fence as a pool barrier. A pool barrier is built to the pool safety standard or it is not one.
- We do not give planning or legal advice.
- We do not quote a fence over the phone without seeing the ground.

- Why Fence Posts Lean, and How to Stop It
- A leaning fence is rarely a fence problem. It is a post problem, and post problems start below the ground, which is where a cheap quote saves its money. Read

- Once the ground falls away, a fence either steps down in level panels or rakes to follow the slope. They look completely different, and this is the part of a quote that surprises people most. Read
