What do wood fencing services include?
Wood fencing services include all the activities necessary to install a timber fence on your property. Your hired wood fencing builder can ensure that it is functional, aesthetically pleasing and complies with rules and regulations on fencing. This service can include taking the necessary measurements, procuring materials to put up the fence, assembling the fence and applying finishing touches.
Taking measurements
Your wood fence installation begins by discussing the size and location of your wood fence with your hired Tasker. After you specify your needs and where you want the wood fence, your hired wood fence builder takes all the necessary measurements. They can place your wood fence anywhere on your property, as long as its placement complies with rules set by your state and your local council.
Procuring materials for wood fencing
Upon request, some Taskers can get all the needed materials for constructing and installing your timber fence, from the type of wood fence panels you need to the sealants needed for the job. They can put up a fence in the style you want and get all the posts, timber frame and timber panels.
Your hired Tasker can also cut any parts of the timber fence down to size if necessary. If your hired builder has to cut timber on-site, you may want to hire a separate service to clean up.
Installing the posts and assembling the panels
Your hired builder can dig holes in your backyard to install the posts for the wood fence. They can ensure that the holes are deep enough and are uniform in depth before burying the posts. Before burying the posts, your Tasker can ensure that the posts are level and of equal length. Once they're placed in the holes, they apply a partial filling of concrete to each hole
Assembling and attaching the panel sections
Your Tasker can assemble sections of wood panels as the concrete dries. They can ensure that each panel is cut uniformly and at the right length, then assemble the panels into sections. Once the concrete is dry, your Tasker attaches fasteners on the top and bottom of each post. They then attach each panel section to the posts.
Finishing touches
Your Tasker can install fascia boards on the outer sections of the wood fence and caps on each post. Upon request, some Taskers can apply a protective sealant to prevent moisture damage and repel pests.
You can also hire a separate service to paint your newly installed fence in a colour that matches your home. While you’re upgrading your backyard, why not get someone to beautify what’s behind your wood fence as well?

Reattach a wooden fence gate that broke off
$200
Brunswick VIC, Australia
9th May 2024
The wooden gate on the side of the house leading to the backyard has fallen off due to the timber post it’s attached to splitting. I’m guessing the best way is to attach a wooden plank to the post to stop the splitting and then reattach the gate to the plank (open to other solutions). Will require measuring, cutting and drilling (and potentially a plank and screws). Additionally, the front gate needs to be realigned a bit so it closes more smoothly. This should be a quick 10 minute task.
Build a 3x5m pool fence from reclaimed wood

We would like to get help building a 3x5x1.2m fence + swing gate around a new hot tub that we are getting delivered tomorrow. We have lots of wood already on hand from fences and decking that we removed a few months ago. We would love to also build a frame above the fence to trellis vines, but that's optional.
Jesse did an amazing job making a spa fence for us out of wood we had left over. Our new fence looks so much better (and sturdier) than I had hoped.
