Had a fence replaced by an outfit in Yately recently. Yarely fencing iirc. Turned up as arranged and did a decent job.

Will dig out details later. Currently travelling.

Not that tricky to do yourself.  Extended mine 16' up the side of the house including gate and was only 8mm out on one of the posts.  Took 1 weekend.

Only thing I can add to this is don't scrimp on the panels :y

PS lattice panels don't blow away in storms...  :D

The quotes I've got so far, does make me want to do it myself. Hummm fancy a job as a supervisor, payment with beer tokens? If I went DIY?  :D

The ground is a shit to dig though, full of rubble  :(

The builders of our Estate used the thinnest panels known to man, I've seen A4 paper that's been thicker  ;D

Yes but it was just two fence panels and a gate. I've done fencing before though using posts and postcrete etc.

i used my sds drill with the chisel attachment to get through the tqrmac and then to loosen the made ground underneath.

Made it easy work.

If you need a hand let me know :y

You are probably looking at about £80-£90 per panel fitted for concrete posts and gravel boards, which is probably a good plan.
