A damaged wire mesh fence detracts from your property’s appearance. For safety reasons, it is important to repair it promptly. A breach can allow animals through or facilitate an intrusion. Here are the options for repairing your fence. <\/p>\n

Repairing the Fence Yourself<\/h2>\n

For a small tear, you can carry out the repair yourself. If the damage is more extensive, you may need to replace an entire section. <\/p>\n

For a localized hole:<\/strong> Materials required:<\/strong> a piece of new mesh, wire cutters, staples or wire.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Start by cutting away the damaged part cleanly to obtain a neat opening.<\/li>\n
  2. Then cut a piece of new mesh slightly larger than the hole.<\/li>\n
  3. Position it over the opening and secure it firmly with staples or by weaving it in with wire.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    To replace an entire section:<\/strong> If the damage is extensive or if several posts are affected, replacing the entire section is the best solution.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Install strainers (tensioners) on the posts at the start and end of the section to be replaced. If the length exceeds 20 meters, add intermediate posts and strainers. <\/li>\n
    2. Thread the tension wires through the holes in the posts and through the strainers.<\/li>\n
    3. Tighten the wires using the strainers, then lock them in place.<\/li>\n
    4. Attach a tension bar to the start of your mesh roll, then fix it to the starting post.<\/li>\n
    5. Unroll the mesh along the tension wires, securing it progressively with staples.<\/li>\n
    6. Once you reach the final post, cut off the excess mesh, attach a second tension bar and fix it to the end post.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Hiring a Professional<\/h2>\n

      It is advisable to check the condition of your fence regularly and tighten fixings if necessary. If you are not comfortable with DIY work or if the damage is substantial, hiring a tradesperson is the safest solution. They will be able to assess the extent of the repairs or advise you to replace the fence entirely if required. <\/p>\n

      What Budget Should You Allow for the Repair?<\/h2>\n

      The cost of a repair by a professional will depend on the extent of the damage. Replacing a sagging post will obviously cost less than replacing an entire section of rusted mesh. <\/p>\n

      The final price on the quotation will vary according to the area to be replaced, the materials chosen, and the labor time required. The quotation must detail the cost of supplies (mesh, posts, fixings) and that of labor. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
