Planning the work
Monitor weathered timber and report major leaning, post failure or boundary disputes rather than treating them as a minor repair. Discuss any final finish or product-specific restrictions before returning the area to ordinary use.
Unexpected conditions can alter the available options. Any additional work, different components or separate specialist requirement should be discussed before extending the agreed task, rather than treated as automatically included.
Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
Repair or replace agreed suitable local timber components and check the repaired section against its existing fence line. Identify any additional items separately so the scope and preparation are understood by everyone arranging the work.
