Fence Replacement St Ives Chase

Fence Replacement in St Ives Chase 2075

Our fence replacement service is the full job: the old fence comes out, the footings and debris go with it, and the new fence goes up on fresh concrete rather than into the holes the last one left, carried out right across St Ives Chase 2075. St Ives Chase is the suburb where post holes most often hit solid rock, so pricing here has to account for rock drilling and chemical-anchored base plates rather than standard concrete footings.

Old fences almost never fail at the panel — they fail at the post. That is why we do not reuse existing holes or leave old concrete in the ground, and why every replacement is set out fresh with new footings sized for the new fence's height and wind load. Most Upper North Shore replacements are 20 to 40 year old timber that has finally gone at ground level. Because the trees have grown since it was built, the new fence line often has to be reset around roots that were not there originally. Sandstone sits close to the surface across much of St Ives Chase, so posts are often drilled into rock and chemically anchored rather than concreted into a dug hole.

The ground under St Ives Chase is shallow sandy soil over continuous sandstone shelf, with frequent rock refusal on post holes, and the suburb is built out with large bushland-fringe blocks backing directly onto national park. Those two facts decide footing depth, material choice and how long the job takes, so we measure on site before we price anything in Ku-ring-gai Council's area.
