Brunswick is one of the busiest fencing patches in Melbourne, and the reason is the housing. Between Sydney Road and Nicholson Street you get single fronted Victorian cottages sitting beside brand new townhouse developments, often on the same block. That mix means most Brunswick fencing jobs are side boundary work on narrow allotments where access is tight and the neighbour's fence is already halfway gone.
For side and rear boundaries in Brunswick, timber paling is the standard and Colorbond is the low maintenance alternative. For front fences, especially on the heritage streets off Sydney Road, a low timber picket fits the period housing and is far less likely to cause a problem with council.
Brunswick sits under Merri-bek City Council.
Do I need a permit for colorbond fencing in Brunswick? A standard boundary fence up to 2.0 metres between neighbours usually does not need a building permit in Victoria. Brunswick is a different case at the front, because much of it sits under a heritage overlay through Merri-bek City Council. Check with Merri-bek before building a front fence or going above 2.0 metres.
How much does fencing cost in Brunswick? Timber paling fencing in Brunswick generally starts around $120 per metre inc GST installed, with Colorbond a little higher. Narrow access, removal of the old fence and old concrete footings all move the number. The calculator asks about each of those, so the price you see is the price you book at.
How long does a job in Brunswick take? Most Brunswick residential jobs up to 20 metres are done in one to two days on site. Tight rear lane access can add half a day because everything gets carried in by hand rather than dropped at the boundary.
Can you remove the old fence in Brunswick? Yes. We remove and dispose of the old fence as part of the installation. Cost depends on the material and the length, and old fences set in deep concrete cost more to pull out. Leftover concrete goes with us, soil stays on site.
Can Colorbond be installed on sloped ground? Yes. Sheets can be stepped or raked. The calculator accounts for slope by adjusting plinth and post requirements.
What colours are available? All standard Colorbond colours including Surfmist, Basalt, Woodland Grey, Monument and Jasper. Specialty colours may incur a small upgrade.
