Sydney's largest council by population after Blacktown – from the Cooks River suburbs of Earlwood and Campsie to the post-war streets of Bankstown, Revesby and Padstow and the river blocks of Picnic Point.

Fencing across Canterbury-Bankstown Council

What we install in Canterbury-Bankstown

  • Colorbond fencing – new boundary fences and replacements in 1.5 m to 2.4 m heights, any Colorbond colour, either sheet profile
  • Fence height extensions – 300 mm or 600 mm louvre, lattice, slat or sheet toppers on your existing Colorbond posts
  • Gates – Colorbond single and double gates, slat, louvre, timber, pool and sliding or automatic driveway gates
  • Timber fencing – treated pine paling, lapped and lap-and-cap on galvanised steel posts

Ground, access and local conditions

Flat to gently sloping with clay soils; older suburbs have brick front fences and long shared side boundaries.

  • Duplex and granny-flat builds across Canterbury-Bankstown need new boundary fencing and often a 2.1 m fence for privacy – we advise on what is exempt.
  • Two-tone Colorbond (for example Primrose sheets with a Monument frame) is popular and costs the same as one colour.
  • Riverwood, Panania and Picnic Point blocks backing onto bushland use Colorbond for fire and termite resistance.
