    Can anyone give me a ballpark price per linear metre for a standard treated pine fence north Brisbane and remove the old fence. Easy access, flat block, 1800mm palings. Thanks

    Depends on the fence really. We got a lapped and capped, average quality, unpainted fence for $180 a meter. Including materials and removal of old fence.

    If you want picket fence, slightly more expensive. If you want regular not lapped slightly cheaper. Think generally it ranges $155-200 per m.

    Give a few landscapers a call in your area.

    For a standard picket fence, metal posts, timber rails, either 75 or 100 wide pickets standard spacing I have seen between $120/m to north of $200/m so I would get at least 2 quotes.

    I did one myself earlier this year and for 30m materials cost worked out to about $68/m

    I og tquotes ranging from $70 - $90/metre south brisbane. Cost to remove fence would be a $200 -$300 depending on length.
