Local notes for Birchgrove

Local conditions: undulating, clay soils, narrow side passages and rear lanes; many fences are shared along the full depth of the block.

Slat and louvre screens over existing fences are popular for privacy on tight blocks in Balmain, Rozelle and Marrickville.
Lane access is the norm – we carry Colorbond sheets in from the lane and plan the build around parking and neighbours.
Lap-and-cap timber suits the Federation and Victorian streetscapes of Haberfield, Summer Hill and Dulwich Hill; Colorbond in Monument is the low-maintenance choice on rear boundaries.

Fencing questions in Birchgrove

Do you service Birchgrove?

Yes. Birchgrove is inside our Sydney-wide service area and we quote there regularly. Site inspections and written quotes are free, and travel is included in the price.

Do I need council approval for a fence in Birchgrove?

Under the NSW exempt development rules a boundary fence behind the building line can be up to 1.8 m high without approval on most residential lots. Inner West Council has many heritage conservation areas (Haberfield is entirely heritage-listed) with strict front-fence controls. Pool barriers must comply with AS 1926.1-2012 regardless. We tell you what we see on site, but only Inner West Council can confirm what applies to your property.

How is a shared boundary fence paid for?

Under the NSW Dividing Fences Act adjoining owners generally share the cost of a sufficient dividing fence equally. We give you a copy of the quote to pass to your Birchgrove neighbour, and can quote each side separately if you prefer.

Which Colorbond colour suits Birchgrove?

Monument, Woodland Grey, Basalt and Surfmist are the most chosen colours across Inner West; two-tone fences (one colour for sheets, another for posts and rails) cost no more. See the Colorbond colour chart for exact swatches.

How soon can you start in Birchgrove?

Usually within one to two weeks of you accepting the quote, weather permitting. Most residential fences are finished in one to two and a half days.
