Someone asked me to put posts and 5 fence panels of feathered type. How can I find gardener who can help me do this? Ask on Gumtree? Already text gardener friend and no response. Also, how u do this?

I don't think you'll find someone to 'help' you - why do you particularly want a gardener - it seems you want someone to do it while you help them! If you don't know, just tell them to get a fencing contractor or specialist in. Then watch while they do it so that you learn for next time.
 
I will pay whoever helps me. Why wouldn't they want to help?

If can't get anyone. I guess it's stringing 2 foot holes and spirit level. Will just cracking on with it myself.

Ask someone on Gumtree?
 
try it the other way round
"i would like to labour and do the donkey work to keep costs down"

you are then putting them in charge and following there methods and instructions

....and as the 'contractor' you will be legally responsible for the standard of their work plus any damage they may do.
 
If you cant do the job then sub contract it to someone who can and offer to help in order to learn for the next one.

Taking on a job for a client that you don't know how to do is a recipie for disappointment all around.

Perfect. I guess it's just a case of selling it to someone. Maybe I didn't sell it to my gardener friend well enough. He didn't reply. Will text him again.

If there are other jobs is it worth asking on Gumtree if my contacts aren't interested? Carpentry or landscaping work probably.

I just text friend with this -

Hi Mike. Are you interested in the fencing job. It would be your job. I would do the labouring so I could learn. Thxs
