Fencing FAQs
Who pays for a boundary fence between neighbours?
In many areas, neighbours share responsibility for an adequate boundary fence, but exact rules and
costs depend on local legislation and agreements. It is a good idea to discuss plans with your
neighbour and keep written records of any arrangements you reach together.
What is the best material for a long lasting fence?
Colorbond and aluminium fences can be low maintenance, while treated timber can provide a natural
look at a different price point. The best option depends on your budget, local conditions and the
appearance you want for your yard and street frontage.
Can a new fence follow a sloping block?
Yes. Fences on sloping blocks can be stepped or raked to follow the ground. Your contractor can
explain how this affects the look of the fence, privacy and any need for retaining along the line.
Do I need approval for pool fencing?
Pool fencing must meet strict safety standards for height, gaps, gates and latches. Your fencing
contractor or pool builder can advise on compliance requirements and whether you need any formal
approval before work starts.
