Coburg is classic middle ring Melbourne fencing. Post war brick and weatherboard homes on regular blocks, long straight boundaries, and side access wide enough to actually get materials in. From Bell Street through to Moreland Road, most of what we do here is straight replacement of a tired timber paling fence that has been in the ground since the eighties.
Timber paling and Colorbond are the two workhorses in Coburg. Timber paling is the cheaper option and suits the older brick and weatherboard homes. Colorbond is worth the extra if you never want to stain a fence again. Steel posts under a paling fence are a good call given the local clay.
Coburg sits under Merri-bek City Council.
Do I need a permit for colorbond fencing in Coburg? Boundary fences up to 2.0 metres between neighbours generally do not require a building permit in Victoria. Merri-bek City Council covers Coburg and applies heritage controls in parts of the suburb, particularly near the older Coburg village streets. Check with Merri-bek before building a front fence or going above 2.0 metres.
How much does fencing cost in Coburg? Coburg pricing is helped by long straight runs. Timber paling generally starts around $120 per metre inc GST installed, with Colorbond slightly higher, and the rate improves the longer the run. The calculator prices your exact job.
How long does a job in Coburg take? Most Coburg jobs up to 20 metres are finished in one to two days. Wider side access on the standard block here means fewer delays than the inner suburbs.
Can you remove the old fence in Coburg? Yes, we take the old fence away as part of the job. Cost depends on material and length. Old paling fences with deep concrete footings take longer to pull out than a light Colorbond run.
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.
