I have a lot of experience with minor home repairs. I bill a two hour minimum. I am willing to tear out carpet before laying flooring, but I cannot haul it away. I do not offer painting, wall repair, cleaning or yard work.

Frequently asked questions about Fence Installation & Repair Services

The price for fence repairs starts at $45 per hour in Detroit. You can expect minor repairs, such as replacing a broken picket or two, to take up to a half day. Moderate repairs, such as replacing several damaged sections, can take up to a full day. Major repairs replacing entire sections from storms or an accident take several days to complete.

Check with your Tasker before the job to determine what experience they have, but many Taskers are happy to install wooden, vinyl or chain-link fences.

Chain-link fencing is one of the most affordable options. Basic wooden fencing is also relatively affordable, especially if you do some of the work yourself. While vinyl fencing requires a larger upfront cost compared to wood or chain-link fencing, it requires minimal long-term maintenance.

Yes, you can fix a rotting fence simply by removing the damaged sections and replacing the rotted boards and posts. Don't forget to treat the repaired wood to prevent further damage. To prevent future rot, regularly inspect your fence and repair any issues promptly.

The most challenging aspect of installing a fence can vary depending on the project. Properly setting the posts is crucial for long-term fence stability. Complex designs can also add difficulty to fence installation. Other factors, such as ease of access to the site and making sure the fence follows property lines, can further complicate the job.

  • Anekant J.Alex was simply amazing. First and foremost, I’ve had over five different TaskRabbit users come to assist us with various tasks and complete them. This is the only time I’m writing a review because I believe it could help someone else here. The quality of the tasker you hire makes a significant difference in the outcome of your job. Among all my experiences with TaskRabbit, Alex has consistently been the best. If you see him available, book him for any home task you need help with. He’s an all-rounder for various home improvement projects. We had a unique job where we wanted to transform our frame TV into a painting and hide a media box in the wall. We also needed to run new wires, connect junctions, and even fix my HVAC duct work (I had accidentally drilled two holes in it). Alex handled all these tasks with professionalism and expertise. He didn’t rush the job and ensured that everything was done to perfection. What impressed me the most was his attention to detail and his commitment to leaving the job spotless. As first-time homeowners, we appreciated his patience and thorough explanation of the process and tasks involved. He has a wealth of knowledge about home improvement and is always polite and courteous. I’m so impressed with Alex’s work that I’m definitely getting him for my next couple of tasks. In fact, this is the first time I’ll be using someone twice on TaskRabbit. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled TaskerFence installation
