Why Choose Us

Joseph Is Easy to Deal With

No pushy sales tactics. No pressure. No bait-and-switch pricing where the quote mysteriously increases after you've committed. Joseph listens to what you want, offers honest advice based on twenty years of experience, and provides solutions that match your needs and budget. What you see is what you get — and that's rare in this industry.

Professional and Efficient

The team arrives on time — not "sometime between 8 and 12" but actually when promised. They work cleanly, protect your garden beds, and finish when they said they would. They treat your property with respect and clean up properly before they leave. Your neighbours won't be complaining about noise at 7am or materials blocking the footpath.

Quality Workmanship

"The finish of our fences are beautiful and neat" — that's what customers consistently say. Attention to detail matters, whether it's ensuring panels are perfectly level on a sloping block in St Ives, finishing edges properly where the fence meets your rendered wall, or making sure gate latches align first time, every time.

Fair Pricing

Competitive quotes with no hidden surprises. Joseph explains exactly what's included — materials, labour, concrete, disposal of old fencing — and the final price matches the quote. If something unexpected comes up during the job (hello, sandstone bedrock in Killara), we discuss it with you before proceeding.



Problems Get Solved

Things don't always go perfectly on every job. What matters is how problems get handled. Joseph and his team are known for "pivoting quickly and resolving without fuss" when issues arise. A colour that looked different in the sample? We fix it. A gate that's not closing perfectly? We adjust it. That's the difference between contractors who disappear after payment and locals who'll see you at Lindfield shops next week.

Our Services

Colorbond Fencing

Australia's most popular fencing choice for good reason. Durable, low maintenance, and available in colours designed for Australian conditions. We supply and install genuine BlueScope Colorbond — not cheap imports that fade within two years — for boundary fencing, privacy screens, and front fences. From the classic cream tones that suit Federation homes in Pymble to the charcoal Monument colour that complements contemporary builds in Lane Cove.

From $100-$160 per metre installed

Aluminium Fencing

Modern, rust-free, and virtually maintenance-free for the life of your home. Aluminium slat fencing creates clean contemporary lines that suit the architect-designed properties throughout Castlecrag and Northbridge. Perfect for privacy screening, pool fencing, and architectural applications. Won't corrode even in the salt-laden air that affects lower North Shore properties near the harbour.

From $150-$250 per metre installed

Glass Pool Fencing

Meet NSW compliance requirements with frameless or semi-frameless glass pool fencing that actually looks good. We use 12mm toughened safety glass complying with AS/NZS 2208, paired with marine-grade 316 stainless steel fittings that won't rust and stain your pool tiles. Your pool area stays visible for supervision while meeting every requirement under AS1926.1.

From $300-$400 per metre installed

Automatic Gates

Sliding gates, swing gates, and bi-fold gates with full automation. Remote controls, intercoms, keypads, and smartphone access available. We've installed automatic gates on driveways from the tight sloping entries of Mosman to the grand entrances of Pymble estates. Every system includes safety sensors, manual override for blackouts, and proper user training so you actually know how to operate it.

From $4,500-$8,000 fully installed



Custom Solutions

Privacy screens for the spa you're hiding from the neighbours. Glass balustrades for the deck extension. Metal security fencing for the business premises. If you can describe it, we can probably build it — and we'll tell you upfront if we can't.

7-Year Workmanship Guarantee

Every installation is backed by our seven-year workmanship guarantee. If any issues arise from our installation — posts moving, gates sagging, panels coming loose — we return and fix them at no charge. Not a warranty that requires three phone calls and an email to head office. Just call Joseph directly.

We're local, we're not going anywhere, and we stand behind our work. That Colorbond fence we installed in Gordon in 2019? Still looks perfect. The glass pool fencing in Cremorne from 2021? Still crystal clear. That's what happens when you do things properly the first time.

About the North Shore

We've been installing fences across the North Shore for over twenty years. From the leafy streets of Wahroonga and Turramurra to the harbourside properties of Mosman and Cremorne, we know this area inside out.

North Shore properties present unique challenges that generic fencing companies simply don't understand. Many blocks slope significantly — try installing a level fence on a 15-degree grade in St Ives Chase where the ground drops three metres across the property. Established trees and landscaping need protection — that hundred-year-old jacaranda in your Pymble backyard isn't moving for anyone. Access is often restricted through narrow side passages barely wide enough for a wheelbarrow, or down flights of stairs that make every panel a manual carry.

Heritage considerations apply in certain conservation areas. Council requirements vary between Ku-ring-gai, Willoughby, Lane Cove, North Sydney, Mosman, and Hornsby — and we know what each one wants. Front fence heights differ by council. Pool fencing inspection requirements vary. Some areas have specific colour restrictions near bushland.

We understand these challenges because we deal with them every day. Our Lindfield base puts us right in the heart of the North Shore, and we've built our reputation one fence at a time across these suburbs for over two decades.

The terrain varies dramatically. The steep harbourside slopes of Mosman where every post needs individual depth adjustment. The bushland blocks of St Ives backing onto Garigal National Park where fire ratings matter. The established gardens of Pymble where working around root systems requires patience and experience.

The rocky ground of Killara where you hit sandstone at 300mm.

Being locally based means we're accessible after the job is done. If something needs attention six months later, we're fifteen minutes away, not two hours across Sydney hoping to batch your call with another job in the area. That accessibility matters when you're trusting someone with your property.

Pool Fencing That Meets NSW Compliance

Whether it’s glass, aluminium, or tubular fencing, we’ll install a stylish, secure fence that keeps your pool safe — and passes inspection. All fences come with self-closing gates and latch systems to meet NSW pool laws. If your current fence doesn’t comply, we can fix or replace it for you.

Understanding Your Fencing Options

Choosing the right fence involves matching materials to your priorities — whether that's privacy, security, aesthetics, low maintenance, or budget. Here's honest advice on what works where.

Colorbond delivers complete privacy, excellent durability, and minimal maintenance at a competitive price. It's the practical choice for boundary fencing and the default for most North Shore backyards. Twenty years from now, it'll still be standing and still look decent with nothing more than an occasional hose-down.

Aluminium offers superior longevity (50+ years), won't rust even in the coastal conditions of Mosman and Cremorne, and provides a contemporary architectural look. Higher upfront cost but essentially permanent. If you're building your forever home, aluminium makes financial sense over time.

Glass provides unobstructed views and modern elegance. Essential for pool fencing where supervision matters — you can see the kids from the kitchen. Premium pricing but adds genuine value to properties. In the North Shore market, quality glass pool fencing is expected, not optional.

Timber suits traditional and heritage properties where other materials would look out of place. That Federation home in Lindfield or Turramurra deserves fencing that matches its character. Requires ongoing maintenance — staining every few years, eventual replacement of posts — but offers warmth and authenticity that other materials can't replicate.

NSW regulations affect what you can build. Most residential fencing is exempt from council approval if side and rear fences stay under 1.8m and front fences under 1.2m. Pool fencing must comply with AS1926.1 standards and requires certification. We advise on requirements for your specific situation during the quote visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How long does fence installation take? A: Most residential boundary fences are completed in one to two days. Larger properties or complex installations — glass pool fencing, automatic gates, difficult access — may take longer. We provide a clear timeline with your quote and stick to it.

Q: Do you remove old fencing? A: Yes. We remove and dispose of existing fencing before installing your new fence. That rotting timber fence, the rusty Cyclone wire, the dodgy DIY job from the previous owner — all gone and disposed of properly. Let us know what's currently there when requesting a quote.

Q: What if I have difficult access? A: We're experienced with challenging sites. Narrow side passages where panels get carried in by hand. Stairs-only access requiring multiple trips. Restricted spaces where we can't get a vehicle anywhere near the fence line. We assess access during the quote visit and plan accordingly — it might cost a bit more, but we'll tell you upfront.

Q: Can you work with my landscaper or builder? A: Absolutely. We regularly coordinate with other trades on renovation and building projects. Early involvement helps avoid issues — there's nothing worse than finishing expensive landscaping and then having fence posts go through the new irrigation system.

Q: What payment terms do you offer? A: We typically require a deposit to confirm bookings with the balance due on completion. For larger projects, staged payments can be arranged. We're flexible, but we don't ask for full payment upfront — you pay when you're satisfied.

Q: Do you provide warranties? A: Yes. All installations carry our seven-year workmanship guarantee. Materials carry manufacturer warranties which we pass on to you — Colorbond has BlueScope coverage, glass has manufacturer backing, automation systems have their own warranties.

Q: What suburbs do you service? A: All North Shore suburbs including Mosman, Cremorne, Neutral Bay, Cammeray, North Sydney, Lane Cove, Chatswood, Willoughby, Artarmon, Gordon, Killara, Lindfield, Roseville, Pymble, Turramurra, Wahroonga, St Ives, Hornsby, and surrounding areas. If you're not sure whether we cover your area, just ask.
