Reservoir fences take a beating from reactive clay, summer heat and winter rain. EasyFixed gives you an instant online price for fence repairs across Reservoir and surrounding suburbs. Tell us the length, the fence type and what is wrong, and get a fixed price inc GST in under a minute.
Replace rotted or broken posts without rebuilding the whole fence.
Reservoir is one of the biggest fencing patches in the north, simply because of the number of homes. Post war brick veneers and weatherboards on generous blocks mean long boundary runs, which is the best case for pricing per metre.
Colorbond is a strong pick in Reservoir because the runs are long and low maintenance pays off. Timber paling remains the cheapest per metre and matches the older housing.
Reservoir sits under Darebin City Council.
Do I need a permit for fence repair in Reservoir? Standard dividing fences up to 2.0 metres generally do not need a building permit in Victoria. Darebin City Council applies lower limits on street frontages, so check before building a front fence.
How much does fencing cost in Reservoir? Reservoir prices well per metre because runs are long and access is usually clear. Timber paling starts around $120 per metre inc GST and Colorbond sits a little higher.
How long does a job in Reservoir take? Most Reservoir jobs of 25 to 40 metres are done across one to two days, with footings curing before sheets or palings go on.
Can you remove the old fence in Reservoir? Yes. Removal and disposal are included. Old fences set in deep 1960s concrete cost more to pull out, and the calculator asks so the price is right first time.
How do I know if my post needs replacing? Press the post at ground level. Soft, spongy or visibly rotten timber means the post should be replaced. Leaning or wobbly posts are also a sign.
Can you repair a few posts only? Yes. We routinely do single-post and small-batch repairs. A $150 minimum call-out fee applies.
