Stock fencing Chepstow?

[sandspider]

Hi all

 

I'm after about 140m (I think, in two runs) of stock fencing, near Chepstow. Fairly easy ground (one run up a gentle ish slope, other run fairly flat across the slope), pasture land, no existing fence to rip out. Access for (small) tractor should be fine. I'd like sweet chestnut or something else what will last equally well. Rabbit netting will be needed I think, and possibly a single strand of barbed on top (TBC - neighbour occasionally puts horses in the paddock next door, so may be a bad idea).

 

Can anyone give me a rough idea of likely price for this, and can anyone recommend someone in the area who can do this? Or does anyone on here do fencing in the area?

 

Many thanks.

Any thoughts or suggestions, anyone?

 

Cheers.

Around £5-6 a metre for labour and materials on top is best i can advise

Thanks Steve. I had got the figure of £6 or so a metre from somewhere, but I thought that included materials. Sounds a bit optimistic now I come to think of it!

This is an old link so cost may have gone up

Ah yes, that's one of the ones I found! Which does suggest £5.00 a metre (including materials) is about right. One person there is quoting £1.50 a metre for labour!
