FAQ
What type of fencing is best for residential properties?
The best fencing for residential use depends on your goals, whether it's privacy, aesthetics, security or low maintenance. Colorbond is a popular choice for modern homes due to its clean look and durability, while timber offers a more natural, traditional appearance that blends into landscaping. If you want a low-cost solution, treated pine is affordable and reliable, though it may require more upkeep. Chain link fencing is ideal for practical use but less common in front-facing residential areas. Each option has pros and cons based on your property and preferences.
How long does a fence typically last?
Fence lifespan varies depending on the material and how well it’s maintained. A Colorbond fence can last 20 to 30 years with minimal maintenance, while treated timber or hardwood fences generally last 10 to 20 years if properly installed and sealed. Chain and rural fencing can last even longer if not exposed to constant moisture or wear. Regular inspections, proper treatment and avoiding ground contact where possible can all help extend your fence’s life.
Do I need council approval to build a fence?
In many areas, you won’t need council approval for a fence under a certain height — typically 1.8 to 2.0 metres for side and rear fences. However, front fences, pool fences or those bordering roads may have stricter guidelines. If your property is on a corner block or shares a boundary with another property, you may also need to comply with specific setback rules or get neighbour consent. Always check with your local council to avoid costly mistakes.
