Before: Broken Fence and Overgrown Backyard

The problem

The rear timber fence had fallen into poor condition, with sections leaning, broken and partly collapsed across the back of the yard. The area around the fence line was also overgrown, making the space look messy and harder to access.

The customer needed the damaged fence material removed so the backyard could be cleared and made safer. Jobs like this are common when old fencing has been left after storm damage, property maintenance issues, end-of-lease clean-ups or preparation for future fence replacement.
