Hi. I've got a 1800mm concrete posted fence which has a 10 to 20mm gap between each of the 20mm x 140mm palings/ boards. This I assume is to allow moisture swell and wind to come through the fence and stop it from sailing across the gardens. This is fine and generally wouldn't be a problem but...

How can I remove these concrete fence posts they are embedded in my concrete driveway. I am not comfortable using a jack hammer nor a large circular saw. I have this small saw: DeWalt DCS571N, would it be possible to use it to cut then out of place? When putting new fence posts in, I am...

I have hired someone to put up a new fence. We’ve asked for 5 ft 6 inch panels with 6 inch gravel boards and 1 ft trellis. Our gardener has said that he can’t easily acquire the 5 ft 6 inch panels so he’s suggesting cutting a 6 ft panel to size. Can anyone tell me if that’s wise or could it be...
