Process
How timber fencing is installed
A timber fence looks simple once it is up, which is exactly why a badly built one is so obvious. The line wanders, the top steps unevenly, the posts move within a few years.

Replacement

Most timber fencing work in Sydney is replacement, not new. Which means the first real question is not what fence you want, it is whether you actually need a new one.
