Sunshine fencing is mostly practical work on post war blocks. Brick veneers and weatherboards with driveways and side access mean long clean runs, and that keeps the per metre rate down.
The ground is the local factor. Much of the west sits on basalt and heavy clay, and hitting rock turns a five minute post hole into a jackhammer job. We allow for that in the pricing questions rather than adding it on the day.

Fence kits are available across Sunshine, cut to your run length with posts, rails, palings, caps, concrete and fixings. A good option on a long boundary if you have the time.
How much does timber fencing cost in Sunshine? Sunshine prices well because runs are long and access is usually good. Timber paling starts around $120 per metre inc GST and Colorbond sits a little higher. Rock and basalt can add to the footing labour.
Do I need a permit for a fence in Sunshine? Dividing fences up to 2.0 metres generally do not need a building permit in Victoria. Brimbank City Council applies lower limits on street frontages and corner blocks for sight lines, so check before building at the front.
What is the best type of fence for Sunshine properties? Colorbond is the workhorse in Sunshine, especially for long rear boundaries where low maintenance matters. Timber paling is the cheaper option per metre and still very common.
How long does fence installation take in Sunshine? Most Sunshine jobs are one to two days on site. Rocky ground can add half a day to the post hole stage.
Can EasyFixed remove my old fence in Sunshine? Yes. Removal and disposal are included. Old fences on deep footings in basalt ground take longer to pull out, and the calculator prices that in.
