A weak earth connection, a slowly corroding terminal, or vegetation creeping onto the wire won't announce itself — until the voltage drops low enough that the fence stops deterring anyone, or an energizer fault leaves the perimeter completely unprotected. Electric fence servicing typically covers: - Energizer output and pulse testing - Wire loop continuity along the full run - Earthing system verification - Backup battery condition testing - Vegetation and obstruction clearance - Written service reports If your electric fence system was installed by another provider, we assess it on its own merits and tell you plainly what we can do. Common Problems ## Electric Fence Faults We Fix The faults we're most often called to handle in residential estates. ### No or Low Voltage Energizer faults, broken conductors, or poor earthing reducing the fence below an effective deterrent level. ### False Alarms Vegetation contact, moisture, or a faulty zone triggering alarms with no real intrusion. ### Broken Conductors Wire breaks from weather, wear, or physical damage along the run. ### Battery/Backup Faults A failed backup battery leaving the fence unprotected during a power cut. ### Siren/Zone Faults Zone wiring or siren faults affecting alarm response when a breach occurs. ### Poor Original Installation Faults traced back to how the fence was originally set up, regardless of installer.

That's Fine. Properties change hands, contractors move on, and the original installer of your electric fence system may no longer be around. None of that means the system is beyond help. We assess the existing equipment and configuration, then tell you plainly whether it can be: - Repaired as-is - Reconfigured - Upgraded in part - Partially replaced - Fully replaced, if that's genuinely the sensible option We can't promise every third-party system is repairable sight unseen — some equipment is genuinely past its useful life — but we assess before we conclude that. Process ## How a Electric Fence Service Runs 1 ### Briefing What's happening, and what should be reviewed. 2 ### Site Walk Inspecting the relevant areas of your residential estate. 3 ### Diagnose Equipment, wiring, power and configuration. 4 ### Report & Recommend Written findings — repair, upgrade or replace. 5 ### Approve & Repair Scheduled at a time that suits your operations. 6 ### Handover Report and documentation for your records. Technical Honesty ## Repair, Upgrade or Replace? ### Repair Restore the energizer, wiring or earthing where that is practical — most fence faults sit in one of these three areas, not the whole fence. ### Upgrade Replace the specific energizer, wiring section or earthing that has failed or is undersized, while keeping the usable fence line. ### Replace Recommended where the fence line or energizer is obsolete, damaged beyond practical repair, or no longer suited to the property.

Most residential estate sites benefit from servicing every 6 to 12 months, depending on usage and exposure to the elements. Can you service systems installed by another company? In most cases yes — we assess the equipment and its condition first, then confirm what can be serviced or repaired. Do you offer maintenance contracts for residential estates? Yes. Maintenance contracts are scoped to the number of devices, sites, and required response times — contact us to discuss what a contract would cover. What if the equipment can't be repaired? We tell you plainly and quote for the specific replacement needed, rather than repeated repair attempts on something that genuinely needs replacing. Do you provide a written report after servicing? Yes — every scheduled service visit includes a written record of what was checked, found, and recommended. Do you check compliance with electric fence regulations? Yes — we check warning signage and general installation compliance as part of a service visit. ## Electric Fence Issue? Let's Sort It. Tell us about your residential estate and the issue.
