Not to keep going over it but why would you have to wait 3 months? If its theirs they fix it, if its yours you fix it. You’re adding steps
Because it takes about 3 months to complete on a house atm.
If it’s on their side that’s how long it will take until the owners move in and see that they’ve bought a new house with a fence on their garden.
Also if I had a baseball bat and Boris Johnson or a HP printer and I was only allowed one swing I genuinely don’t know which one I’d go for. I just want to scan something and here I am putting in the fucking postcode to make a whole fucking account and trying to recover my account and using special characters in my password and just fucking why why WHYY. FUCKING PRINTER BASTARDS.
cool wet grass cool wet grass.
They won’t complete if it hasn’t got a fence. I think he’ll fix it.

Yeah. Can you just let the estate agent know about it?

@Les_Zeppelin got a full quote of £1250 for cheapo panel fence now. As you said, stupid wind

Balls. 
6 panels of mine went last year, was about £400 all in and one honking days graft to fix. Pretty sure we were able to reuse a couple of the old ones though
(disclaimer - if I had the money at the time I would 100% have got someone in)

I feel like I am physically capable of rebuilding our fence but it’d look shit and blow down again next year

I’ve used these successfully in the past..
They’re still holding strong after several years.
If it’s only the bottom of your posts that are rotten it could be a good option.

Did a load of this over lockdown, can confirm it’s well worth doing if the post is not rotten from the ground up .Much more cost effective too .

Is there not usually an existing lump of concrete in the way?

My friend who moved from Holland to France is now saying he’s got no rights in France for “assistance sociale” and wil be made homeless. He doesn’t seem to understand the laws. Bit of a random one, but has anyone got a better grasp than me of the laws over there and how they have changed recently?
Yeah, had to dig it out first
Great laugh

Can confirm I slept well that night.
A wrecking bar makes the job a lot easier, or if not, a chisel and sledge hammer.

Depends on how it was put in. But that’s why you dig one side out and then sledge hammer and chisel point bar half the concrete out like deegwaad said .
It’s tough knackering work for sure , so depends how much you want to save and do it yourself.
Yeah, I try and get someone else to do stuff like that if at all possible. My physique doesn’t lend itself to literal groundwork, legs like a footballer but with computer arms.

I got some fencing and a gate done last summer - probably 7/8 metres of fencing, posts bolted into existing wall, gate post added + gate - cost me £770 but the guy was an UTTER twat who turned up at 10pm to drill holes in brickwork by torchlight like an absolute bellend.
Reckon it’d be more expensive now though
