Wood Fence Replacement
Removal of a failing fence and installation of a new one along the same line.
About wood fence replacement
When a fence has reached the end of its service life, patching stops being economical. Replacement removes the old structure — including posts and footings where they interfere — and installs a new fence along an agreed line.
We walk the existing fence with you first. Sometimes a section can be saved and only part of the run needs replacing; we will say so rather than quoting the whole line by default.
Scope
What is included, and what to think about
Typical inclusions
- Assessment of the existing fence line
- Removal of the old fence and disposal of debris
- Removal of old concrete footings where they obstruct new posts
- New posts, rails and pickets as specified
- Gate replacement where included in the estimate
Practical considerations
Things that genuinely affect the work, said plainly before you commit.
- Old footings can be larger or deeper than expected, which affects removal effort.
- Shared fence lines may need agreement with a neighbour before work starts.
- Landscaping, irrigation lines and utilities near the fence line need to be identified.
- Disposal volume depends on the length and construction of the existing fence.
