Re: Fence dispute 8Feb 26, 2016 4:54 pm Pretty much 50:50 for any dividing fence in any state.... that's only 50:50 of the 'standard' fence for the area, so if the 'standard' is 3 strand barbed wire on star pickets, you only have to contribute 50% of that, and not 50% of a 1.8m brick fence. Don't be surprised if the other neighbour does not have the funds to go ahead with it when you want to, but you must have an agreement. Owner Building at Jimboomba Woods in Logan City Qld.

Re: Fence dispute 9Feb 27, 2016 4:58 pm thanks for your help, I think we will just end up paying to avoid conflict - the first quote we have got is around $1500 so would have been nice to go halves but we just aren't people who are comfortable with conflict....... Maybe we will get a cheaper quote or do it ourselves but it does seem unfair when it was his issue with a previous neighbour, the higher the fence the better I say though ! Re: Fence dispute 10Feb 27, 2016 7:41 pm I know what you mean... I'd sooner put up a 10 foot tall besser block fence to block next door out completely.

Re: Fence dispute 11Feb 28, 2016 9:53 am I'd go that way if you really feel like this. But, I'd still try the process - send a copy to them and seek the 50%. Point out the cost and fairness of it all. Point out how you are neighbours and you should try to be friends - get along. No threats or anything. Just be nice. Then if they won't - just pay - if that's how you feel. Just remember it ... Maybe BP's idea - with gun-towers too ... Re: Fence dispute 12Feb 28, 2016 8:57 pm You could always just build your own fence on your own land as big and as high as you want sure you might lose 10cms of land but you gain the freedom to do whatever you want. Re: Fence dispute 13Feb 28, 2016 9:54 pm paint the panels on his side bright pink and then put the fence up. It does suck that some pple are just rude. The land owner next to me is trying to sell her land and she doesnt want to pay a cent as her reason was she is not going to live there so not her issue. But i have sent her a express post registered letter so i have signed proof that she has it.
