Local notes for Croydon

What we look for at the measure in Croydon – gently undulating, clay soils, mature street trees and many narrow rear lanes.

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.
Heritage conservation areas cover much of Burwood – front fences there usually need to match the period style.
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.

Croydon straddles the boundary of Burwood Council and Inner West Council; check which council your rates notice names before relying on either set of fence rules.

Burwood Council

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. Council website.

Fencing questions in Croydon

Do you service Croydon?

Yes. Croydon 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 Croydon?

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 Croydon neighbour, and can quote each side separately if you prefer.

Can you remove the old fence in Croydon?

Yes – demolition and removal of the old timber, Colorbond or brick fence is itemised in the quote, including tipping. Bonded asbestos fencing is handled by a licensed removalist we arrange.

Which Colorbond colour suits Croydon?

Monument, Woodland Grey, Basalt and Surfmist are the most chosen colours across Burwood; two-tone fences (one colour for sheets, another for posts and rails) cost no more. See the Colorbond colour chart for exact swatches.
