Back on the thread again, I have a fence of board & batten, 20 years old, very tatty,and now I am trying to convince new landlord to replace with a "Color Coat" steel fence, while at the same time as he has roof iron replaced. When he bought the unit, I am a tenant, he got a grand or two off the asking price, so he can pay for roof. The block is six unit Town House, with each a separate title, a body corporate to administer minor repairs, and major repairs, are to notify all other owners before start.
