Local notes for Burwood Heights

Ground and access shape the price more than anything else in Burwood Heights: gently undulating, clay soils, mature street trees and many narrow rear lanes.

Lap-and-cap timber is chosen to match the Federation streetscape in Burwood Heights and Croydon; Colorbond in Monument or Woodland Grey is the modern alternative.
Heritage conservation areas cover much of Burwood – front fences there usually need to match the period style.
Access is the usual challenge – materials often come through the house or over the fence from a lane, which we plan for at the measure.

Fencing questions in Burwood Heights

Do you service Burwood Heights?

Yes. Burwood Heights 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 Burwood Heights?

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. Burwood Council's heritage conservation areas (Appian Way, Burwood Heights and others) have front-fence controls that override the exempt rules. Pool barriers must comply with AS 1926.1-2012 regardless. We tell you what we see on site, but only Burwood 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 Burwood Heights 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 Burwood Heights for you or your builder to install – ask for a supply-only price on the quote form.

Is the ground in Burwood Heights a problem for posts?

Gently undulating, clay soils, mature street trees and many narrow rear lanes. 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.
