Service overview
Timber fencing and gates in Melbourne: scope, options and first checks
Fence repairs should separate failed palings or rails from post, footing and alignment problems. Gate performance also depends on hinges, latches, post stability and ground clearance.
A typical enquiry begins when a fence section leans, palings or rails are damaged, or a timber gate drags, will not latch or needs replacement. The proposed item, photos, access and intended result are reviewed before materials, timing and the appropriate assessment path are discussed.

Before a scope is confirmed
Material condition, access, service fit and any structural or regulated-work boundary still need to be reviewed. The guide provides a useful starting point; it is not a diagnosis or a fixed quote from photographs alone.
