What do fence repair services include?

Fence repair methods vary depending on the type of damage. To name a few, fence repair may include replacing fence panels or securing loose posts with backfill. No matter what damage your fence has sustained, we’ll help you find a fencing specialist for the job. Here are some fence repair services you can book on Airtasker. 

Wooden fence post repair 

Wood fences take a beating from the sun, wind, rain, and snow. Not to mention, wood-damaging pests subject your fence to rotting. If you need to repair your garden fence posts or secure wobbly posts, you can hire a Tasker to fix that right up. For example, your Tasker may use a fence post repair spike to secure a weak timber post.  

Or they can use fence post spurs to fix broken or rotted fences sections. Fence post brackets can secure fencing and straighten up leaning posts. Please note that one weak fence post can pull down your entire fence, so make sure to schedule your fence post repair as soon as you notice problems with your fence. 

Fence panel repair 

Repairing fence panels is a fast and cost-effective way to fix a fence, including slatted fence panels. Fence panel repair may require removing damaged fence panels and replacing them with new ones. Taskers can also repair slatted fence panels so that you can restore the privacy of your home. 

If your fence simply needs a new paint job, a Tasker can get it done as well. Once your fence is in good shape, you can start planning for a cosy garden deck with a decking specialist

Chain link fence repair

Your chain link fence may give way underneath if you have a dog that keeps digging under your fence. Or perhaps a tree limb fell on your property and ruined your fence rails. (You can hire a Tasker to remove a fallen tree or inspect a dangerous tree in your property, too!) When such issues arise, it’s easy to book chain link fence repairs on our platform. 

Chain link fence repair may include cutting out the damaged section and replacing it with a new piece. Other repair methods include attaching tent stakes to the bottom of your fence. Rather than look through several chain link fence repair companies online, why not hire a Tasker for the job? Find trusted chain link fence repair experts by putting up a task now.

Concrete fence repair 

Using a concrete fence repair spur is another quick and effective way to repair a fence. Fixing your concrete fence posts prolongs the service life of your fence. Rather than spend money right away on a full fence replacement, your Tasker can reinforce your fence from one side. 

Some other issues with concrete fence panels include wobbly footing, water intrusion, and cracks. These cases call for solutions like replacing the whole footing, adding a support post, and injecting epoxy into the cracks.

Install Gate Hinge / fix stuck gate

$150

Abbotsford VIC, Australia

19th Jan 2025

Fix Back gate that is currently “sticking” at top (non hinge) side of gate. Suspect this is most likely due to slight movement of fence and gate. I believe the required fix is to (supply) and install an additional hinge near the top of the gate. Gate and fence are approx 2m high. Current hinges are rivet screws.

Daniel was wonderful to deal with! He is polite, skilled with his tools and a great problem solver. He was very professional, turned up on time, brought all the tools and kept me updated throughout the job with options. Nothing was too much trouble for him. I definitely recommend Daniel and will be contacting him again for any other handyman work that I need done.

We have a rotten old fence which has needed replacing, however we covered it with a screen. Last night a large tree fell and landed on the fence causing further damage that needs urgent fixing. The auction for our apartment is tomorrow night and we are desperate!

Mim was our actual hero and came to our rescue when a tree in our garden fell the day before our auction and destroyed our fence. We can’t believe he was able to rebuild the fence to such a great standard is such a quick turn around. Couldn’t reccomend him or thank him more!

Fixing a fence

$450

Coburg VIC, Australia

14th Aug 2024

The back fence of our backyard had to be taken down while building the granny flat. Now that the building process is complete, I’m after someone to fix the missing portion of the fence (currently blocked with temporary fencing). The dimensions roughly are 2.6m length and 2.2m height). We don’t have the materials for the job, but there’s a Bunnings nearby.

Lawrence was very accurate, and efficient. He was their on time, and finished the job very neatly (fixed my fence for the backyard). He’s very knowledgeable about the materials. I would highly recommend him for any handy man job around your house.
