    I am looking to get a timber post and rail fence put up around my house. I have got one quote so far and I am awaiting another one. The one I have got so far is 2600. This includes supply and fit of 100 metres of 4 rail fence and 2 six foot gates. Is this a good price??

    Tbh i dont know. However my neighbour does this for a living and he is always giving out because he is flat out busy but yet he knows if he overprices he risks not getting the work.

    If you want me to get him to call you PM me your number.

    In the Galway area at least, if you go to your local Farmer's Co-Op, and enquire, they usually have a list of people who do that locally - I got got mine done through through the Farm Relief Service - some farmers with the plant supplement their income by doing fencing.

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    12 euro per metre for post & rail (3 rail) fence in Louth ( based on 78 metres)

    2600 doesn't sound too mad for what you're getting tbh.
