Local notes for Dangar Island

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

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.
Bush-backed blocks in Hornsby Heights, Berowra and Mount Colah favour steel fencing; Colorbond gives ember and termite resistance that timber cannot.
Rock is common – we allow for coring post holes where sandstone is close to the surface.

Fencing questions in Dangar Island

Do you service Dangar Island?

Yes. Dangar Island 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 Dangar Island?

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

Which Colorbond colour suits Dangar Island?

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

Is the ground in Dangar Island 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.
