G'day — I'm the quoting assistant for Smith Fencing. I can get you a rough price in about 2 minutes. What kind of fence are you after — Colorbond, timber paling, aluminium slats, or is this a pool fence?
Timber
Sweet, timber paling it is. What's the site address for the job?
13 ixia street
Cheers. What's the postcode there?
3809
Here's a link to draw your fence line on satellite view — makes measuring way easier: https://dev.bythemetre.au/draw/36DmIq5Rf9emLUwJNhaCBVD7rB6n1Yix While you do that — what height are you after for the fence, standard is 1.8m?
Got it — 57.6m. Couple more quick questions…
?
Sorry, bit of a jumble there! Just confirming your address — that's 13 Ixia St, Officer VIC 3809, right? And what height fence are you after — standard is 1.8m?
Yes
Good stuff, that's confirmed. Now, what height are you after — standard is 1.8m, or something different?
1.8
Good stuff. Is there an old fence there now that needs pulling out, or is it a clear run?
Clear
Nice, clear run makes it easier. What sort of paling profile are you after — standard lapped/overlap, or a flat butt-join style?
What is paling profile means?
Good question — it's just the style of the timber palings. Two common options: - **Lapped/overlap** — palings overlap each other slightly, no gaps, classic Aussie backyard look - **Butt-join (flat)** — palings sit edge-to-edge, flush, no overlap, a bit more modern Which one sounds like what you're after?
Which ever cheaper
All good, lapped/overlap is the more budget-friendly option so we'll go with that. Now — do you need any gates in this fence line?
No
Sweet, no gates. What's your name?
Amil Dick
Thanks Amil! And what's the best phone number to reach you on?
0123455
That number doesn't look quite right — mind resending it? Something like 0412 345 678.
0416890855
Beauty, got that. Now, what's the ground like there — normal soil, or have you hit rock/clay when digging before?
Not sure
Just waiting on your answer — is the ground flat or sloped where the fence is going?
Flat
All good on the ground front, we'll sort that on site. Now — is there good access for machinery/trucks along the fence line, or is it tight (like narrow side gate, steep driveway etc.)?
Good access
Last one — is this fence on a shared boundary with your neighbour, or fully on your own property line?
Shared boundary
Beauty, I've got everything I need — I'll get your estimate sorted and the team will confirm it with you shortly. Someone from Smith Fencing will be in touch on that number soon too. Cheers Amil!
