Hi all
I will like some advice in regards to my situation - front fence which encompass front and side fence (1.2m high) which connects to my garage wall.
Not sure if I'm explaining correctly but here is an example-
http://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-sa-underdale-111305375 - THIS IS AN EXAMPLE ONLY - the 1st picture on the right (wooden slates) to garage pillar.
My neighbour on my left has just recently done his and wishes to seek payment for the common side fence with me. As part of the development for this estate, a front fence is required as part of the look.
The problem is my neighbour did not serve the form 1 to me, never provided any quotes to me or discussed the matter - the main thing is there was no consultation. The tradies just rocked up and finished the job - basically dig a foundation for the front fence and 4 pillars (blue board) with wooden slates.
For the side, the 1st pillar connected to steel posts (the ones used to hold the good neighbour) fences, holes been dug using post hole digger and wooden slates.
I'm disputing the amount being requested required ($800) for the side fence partly the materials used as compared to my side fence constructed with neighbour on right (foundation dug, bessa blocks and precast pillars, powdercoated alumn tubes though built in 08) was around $1400.
Any advice?
Cheers
