Fencing in North
Knut is preparing fencing coverage in North. Requests and bookings open at launch.
Fencing jobs you can request
Knut can help you request timber fencing, metal fencing, gates and fence repairs. A job might involve a new fence, work on an existing fence, or a gate that needs attention. Describe what you want done and where the work is needed so suitable local tradies can consider the request. If more than one type of work is involved, include each part in your description. Photos can help explain the job, particularly where a repair or gate is involved. Knut is newly available in North, covering postcodes 3070, 3071, 3072, 3073 and 3074.
How to brief a fencing job
Give a clear description of what needs doing, where the property is and when you would like the work done. Say whether you need timber or metal fencing, a gate, a repair, or a combination of these. Include useful details about the part of the fence or gate involved and add photos if they help show the work. A specific brief gives tradies a better basis for considering the job and preparing quotes. You only need to describe the job once through Knut; it sends the request to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer the service.
Costs and Knut’s booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes. Customers pay Knut one booking fee when they book: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. You also pay the tradie’s quoted price for the work; job prices depend on the quote you receive. Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. The booking fee is paid to Knut at booking.
Choosing and checking a tradie
Knut matches on the service, area, availability and reviews of the tradie, then compares the quotes it receives against the job. This trade does not generally need a trade licence, so a licence is not usually the credential to rely on when considering a fencing tradie. Read the available reviews and compare what each quote covers with the work you described. Before booking, use the messaging option to clarify anything you are unsure about. Once booked through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut for maintenance across many properties.
Knut's booking fee
Requesting quotes is free. When you book, Knut adds one booking fee, shown before you pay, and never more than $150. The provider keeps 100% of their quote.
