Pricing guide
Cost variation is driven mainly by whether existing posts can be reused or a full post-and-footing replacement is needed. Premium materials or engineered footings usually add complexity and labour, and difficult ground conditions, restricted access or permit requirements can also increase the final scope.
Fence length and number of panels
Longer runs need more materials and labour, so linear length is a primary driver of scope.
Whether posts can be reused
Panel-only jobs that reuse structurally sound posts are typically less involved than full post replacement.
Footing and engineering requirements
Engineered footings, deeper posts or retaining structures usually require more labour and specialised fixings.
Material type and finish
Premium materials such as steel posts, masonry panels or specialist finishes often increase labour and specialised fastening needs.
Site and ground conditions
Rocky ground, heavy clay, slope or limited site access can make excavation and installation more difficult and time-consuming.
