Fencing in Blakehurst

Blakehurst is one of the suburbs we cover in Georges River Council – boundary fences, gates, extensions, pool barriers and retaining walls. A free measure in Blakehurst, a written quote the same day where possible, and a licensed installer on the tools – that is how every job here runs.

Fencing in Blakehurst

Hurstville, Kogarah, Penshurst, Oatley, Lugarno and the Georges River foreshore – established brick suburbs with a strong knock-down-rebuild market and leafy, sloping blocks toward the river.

What we install in Blakehurst

  • Colorbond fencing – new boundary fences and replacements in 1.5 m to 2.4 m heights, any Colorbond colour, either sheet profile
  • Retaining walls under fences – treated pine or aluminium sleeper walls built directly under the new fence where levels differ
  • Slat and louvre screens – aluminium horizontal slat, vertical slat and louvre fences, screens and gates in any powder-coat colour
  • Gates – Colorbond single and double gates, slat, louvre, timber, pool and sliding or automatic driveway gates
  • Fence height extensions – 300 mm or 600 mm louvre, lattice, slat or sheet toppers on your existing Colorbond posts
  • Aluminium fencing – rust-free flat top, vertical picket, blade and slat aluminium fencing for coastal and front-boundary use
  • Pool fencing – aluminium flat top and tubular barriers built to AS 1926.1-2012 with self-closing gates

Local notes for Blakehurst

Ground and access shape the price more than anything else in Blakehurst: sandstone ridges falling to the river at Oatley, Lugarno, Connells Point and Blakehurst; flatter around Hurstville and Kogarah.

  • New two-storey homes in Hurstville, Beverly Hills and Penshurst pair 1.8 m Colorbond side fences with aluminium slat front fencing and gates.
  • Riverside blocks in Lugarno, Oatley and Kyle Bay are steep – stepped Colorbond and sleeper retaining walls are usual.
  • Bush-backed blocks around Oatley Park and the Georges River National Park choose steel for termite and ember resistance.

Fencing questions in Blakehurst

Do you service Blakehurst?
Yes. Blakehurst 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 Blakehurst?
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. Georges River Council applies the state rules; heritage conservation areas in Oatley, Penshurst and Hurstville Grove have their own controls. Pool barriers must comply with AS 1926.1-2012 regardless. We tell you what we see on site, but only Georges River 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 Blakehurst neighbour, and can quote each side separately if you prefer.
Do you do supply only?
Yes. Colorbond panels, aluminium flat top and slat kits and gates can be supplied to Blakehurst for you or your builder to install – ask for a supply-only price on the quote form.
Is the ground in Blakehurst a problem for posts?
Sandstone ridges falling to the river at Oatley, Lugarno, Connells Point and Blakehurst; flatter around Hurstville and Kogarah. Where we hit rock we core the hole or use flanged posts; where levels differ we build a sleeper retaining wall under the fence. Both are priced up front.
