Fencing in Carlton

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 Carlton

  • 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 and gate repairs – leaning posts, storm damage, insurance repairs and gates that will not latch
  • Pool fencing – aluminium flat top and tubular barriers built to AS 1926.1-2012 with self-closing gates
  • Timber fencing – treated pine paling, lapped and lap-and-cap on galvanised steel posts

Local notes for Carlton

Ground and access shape the price more than anything else in Carlton: 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.

Carlton straddles the boundary of Georges River Council and Bayside Council; check which council your rates notice names before relying on either set of fence rules.

Fencing questions in Carlton

Do you service Carlton?
Yes. Carlton 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 Carlton?
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 Carlton neighbour, and can quote each side separately if you prefer.
Which Colorbond colour suits Carlton?
Monument, Woodland Grey, Basalt and Surfmist are the most chosen colours across Georges River; two-tone fences (one colour for sheets, another for posts and rails) cost no more. See the Colorbond colour chart for exact swatches.
Do you do supply only?
Yes. Colorbond panels, aluminium flat top and slat kits and gates can be supplied to Carlton for you or your builder to install – ask for a supply-only price on the quote form.
