Time scale for fencing

[paulb2785]

I know who long it takes on a domestic site using my auger or spoons but have a site to quote for and can use a digger and auger

How many panels could be done in one day it's 6ftx6ftft close board panels concrete slotted posts and gravel and 1ft trellis how many realistic can be done in one day its 441 meters about 242 sections and can drive all materials to the hole

You on your own, lugging all the gear to site, erecting the fence I,d say 15-20 panels aday, if its an 8 hour day.

wow you must have a strong back most i have ever done is 11 but driving to the hole so less carrying maybe your right

 

but i would have 2 at least on a job that big save your back !!!!! those gravel boards can be heavy !

 

 

i would look at 30-40 with 2

but problem your getting in to now is the weight issue for your vehicle

31 post and 30 bases is alot even 21 posts and 20 bases would be far too much for the vehicles i own

Thanks for the relays was thinking could do 40 ish a day with three on site would be a hard week

Is it straight runs or up and down are you digging the gravel boards in.

 

Two of us can do 25 panels gravel boards a day but we dig our boards in on most jobs.

 

Is there any old posts to dig out?

[Burgess]

If there are old posts double how long you estimate to dig them out.

I usally put 8 panels per person perday but that's on a domestic job , taking down old fencing and hand digging the holes .

We have a auger on a 1.5 ton machine and managed to get 55m of feather edge erected in a day and that was one man with machine putting posts in and 2guys boarding behind

Sorry for adding to this old thread but I have a question for guys that do fencing.

 

I have just started doing fencing as well as tree work.

 

I price £150 per section of 6x6 panel 9'post and gravel board. Is this a fair price. I would appreciate any feed back.

if you can get that then great !

there are too many variable is it a just putting a fence up? or do you have to remove a old one ? are you removing an old hedge ?

 

if it is just putting up fencing for 1 -3 panels that price is fine but trying that price out at 10- 20 panels will be pretty expensive for say wane lap fencing

 

when materials cost 60-70 quid per panel ( depending on choice of panel)charging £1500 for 10 panels that I would do in a day on my own would mean i took £ 800 quid home for a days work is a bit steep but most of the time you don't just put the fence up ! too many variables
