Hi

I just had fence done and it was terrible job. I am now left to fix it but unsure what to do.

Concrete used for the post and nails needed which one are they please. I have attached pictures. 

I also don't know if to add another rail at the bottom. 

Is there way to call you

Hi @paula24,

Unfortunately, we cannot assist over the phone, but the Workshop team and our community members can certainly offer ongoing assistance to help you get things sorted.

I am sorry to hear that you are not happy with the quality of the fence that was built at your property. Fundamentally, it appears to be a solid enough fence.

Generally, fencers will use a coil nailer, which fires Collated Coil Nails to install fence palings, but these Paslode 50 x 2.8mm 500g Flat Head Galvanised Nails would work much the same.

For setting posts, you can use standard concrete, post mix or rapid set concrete. They all do the same thing, just with slightly different drying times. Do you think your posts are loose? If you gently shake them, is there movement?

I don't think there is any reason for an additional rail at the bottom unless the palings seem loose at the bottom. Are there only two rails, or is there a third higher up that isn't shown in the photos?

Let me know what you think, I am keen to help out however I can.
