Quote for new fencing

Hi, I wonder if someone would let me know whether this seems a reasonable price for fencing? £925.00 for do 15m of closeboarding, new posts and arris rails? It justs seems really high to me but then I haven't had to have fencing done in years and years and can't really remember how much I paid then!

Many Thanks

Sarah

    We had a closeboard fence put in a few months ago, only about 7-8m if that, for £400 - we'd turned down quotes of over £1k for it
  • depends if they are using concrete posts or wooden,how high is it?
  • We recently had the whole of our back garden done at a cost of £60/panel. That included treated panels and posts. The neigbours all went halves and most of them took up an option to have facing panels to hide the cross beams at a cost of an extra £15/panel.

    We had a no. of quotes and this one was the best (though not the cheapest) overall.

    Thats good.

    I need my front done, just two simple 1 meter high lengths (no gates or anything). One side is about 3 meters & the other 2 meters, my quote is £450 for 5 meters.
