Colorbond fencing
A tired or leaning boundary fence makes a whole yard look neglected, and on the sloping blocks around Mooroolbark a straight-looking fence can still be sitting on shallow or rotting posts. Colorbond holds up well against our wet winters and hot summers, but only if the posts underneath are set deep and properly braced.
What the job involves
New Colorbond boundary and side fences, with or without lattice or slat toppers.

- On-site measure up of the fence line and ground conditions

- Checking for underground services before digging

Common questions
Do you sort out the neighbour's share of a dividing fence?
We'll give you a quote that shows each side's share, which makes the conversation easier. The agreement itself is between you and your neighbour.
How long does a new fence take?
A typical suburban boundary is usually up in a couple of days, plus time for the post concrete to set. Rural runs depend on the length and the ground.
Can you fence a steep or rocky block?
Yes, that's a lot of what we do around here. We'll step or rake the fence to suit the slope and tell you upfront if the ground looks like it needs extra work.
Do you take the old fence away?
Yes, removal and disposal can be included in the quote. It's listed as its own line so you can see what it costs.
Colorbond or timber?
Colorbond needs little upkeep and comes in a range of colours; timber is warmer to look at and easier to patch. We'll talk through both when we're on site.
Do you do farm fencing?
Yes. Post and rail, plain wire, ringlock and hinge joint, plus farm and driveway gates, on blocks out towards Lilydale, Coldstream and Wandin North.
How the job is priced
Priced per metre once Brendan has walked the fence line with you and looked at the ground. Dividing fence quotes are split line by line so you and your neighbour can each see your share.
