Can anyone recommend: I need a fence replaced.

Sorry I can't advise on tradesman for your job but the likely cause of the fence being down is that in December there was three days of non stop torrential rain and strong winds. During that time many trees were blown down and a large number of properties flooded so it seems likely that your fence was damaged at that time.

Thanks for that, just hope its the only damage when we return in September.My keyholder has only just discovered it.? Seems then been down 8mnths.

If your keyholder has only just discovered the problem then you may need to look at getting a new keyholder, particularly if it is a paid service, as anyone providing this service would be well aware of the problems last winter and the need for many non resident owners to get their properties repaired urgently and not eight months later.

I agree, but its not paid ,he is a neighbour (my only neighbour) and I would not want to offend by saying he should have noticed earlier. He inspects occassionly as I do have Securitas alarm monitoring and didnt realise fence was down before now. Unlike the coast with plenty of expats its not easy getting "friends" especially if not resident, or workmen in inland areas and this forum has been a godsend of information which wouldnt have been available locally.

Hi Paul I live in las virtudes if you still need your fence replacing or fixing I can do this for .

Thanks Martin for replying but I have now finally got someone for the job as its been a month since I put it on here but are you a builder or a diyer as I may have other jobs in the future.We are coming over next week and it,ll be fixed then but I have had other work that I have had difficulty finding someone to undertake. Have you been in Las Virtudes long?

Yes I am a builder we have been here for just over a year now but I have been working in the uk on a month on and a month off basis,now I would like to stay with my family full time in spain. Anything you want doing I'm happy to quote for.
