Cost of a new fence?

[StoneTheCrone]

Has anyone had a fence fitted recently?

I'm looking for an approximate cost to dig out the hedge and then erect a 6 foot by 70 foot fence.

Just had two quotes this week both around £2,800 for 75ft of rails with feather board, but only 5ft high. Would have been more if I had wanted panels. South West. I would imagine you’d then need to factor in another days labour and disposal costs for removing the hedge.
you also need to think about timings as you can’t remove hedges when birds are nesting so need to get on and do it before end of March or wait until end of August.

We've had a quote this week of £1600 for six panels and new concrete posts, 6ft, green featherboard, with a couple of tweaks for tricky areas. South east.

Ah! Good thinking about the birds, but they never usually nest as we have dogs and cats next door and the hedge is too thin.
