Local notes for Cheltenham

What we look for at the measure in Cheltenham – sandstone ridges and gullies with shallow soil in places; bushfire-prone land borders most of the shire.

Rock is common – we allow for coring post holes where sandstone is close to the surface.
Bush-backed blocks in Hornsby Heights, Berowra and Mount Colah favour steel fencing; Colorbond gives ember and termite resistance that timber cannot.
Cherrybrook and Pennant Hills homes often add 300 mm or 600 mm louvre or lattice extensions to existing Colorbond for privacy from two-storey neighbours.

Fencing questions in Cheltenham

Do you service Cheltenham?

Yes. Cheltenham 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 Cheltenham?

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. Hornsby Shire Council applies the NSW codes; heritage conservation areas in Beecroft, Cheltenham and Wahroonga limit front-fence height and materials. Pool barriers must comply with AS 1926.1-2012 regardless. We tell you what we see on site, but only Hornsby Shire 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 Cheltenham neighbour, and can quote each side separately if you prefer.

Is the ground in Cheltenham a problem for posts?

Sandstone ridges and gullies with shallow soil in places; bushfire-prone land borders most of the shire. 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.

How soon can you start in Cheltenham?

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.
