Fencing in Illawong

Illawong is one of the suburbs we cover in Sutherland Shire Council – boundary fences, gates, extensions, pool barriers and retaining walls. A free measure in Illawong, a written quote the same day where possible, and a licensed installer on the tools – that is how every job here runs.

Fencing in Illawong

The Shire – Cronulla, Caringbah, Miranda, Sutherland, Engadine, Menai and the Georges River and Port Hacking foreshores. Brick homes on good-sized blocks, a lot of pools and a lot of bushland boundaries.

What we install in Illawong

  • Colorbond fencing – new boundary fences and replacements in 1.5 m to 2.4 m heights, any Colorbond colour, either sheet profile
  • Pool fencing – aluminium flat top and tubular barriers built to AS 1926.1-2012 with self-closing gates
  • Aluminium fencing – rust-free flat top, vertical picket, blade and slat aluminium fencing for coastal and front-boundary use
  • Slat and louvre screens – aluminium horizontal slat, vertical slat and louvre fences, screens and gates in any powder-coat colour
  • 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
  • Retaining walls under fences – treated pine or aluminium sleeper walls built directly under the new fence where levels differ

Local notes for Illawong

Ground and access shape the price more than anything else in Illawong: sandstone plateau with bushland reserves on many rear boundaries; coastal sand and salt around Cronulla, Kurnell and the bays.

  • Pool fencing to AS 1926.1 and slat privacy screens are in constant demand across the Shire; we advise on gates, latches and the non-climbable zone.
  • Bush-backed blocks in Engadine, Menai, Illawong and Heathcote choose Colorbond for ember and termite resistance.
  • Salt air at Cronulla, Woolooware and the Port Hacking bays means aluminium for open and pool fencing.

Fencing questions in Illawong

Do you service Illawong?
Yes. Illawong 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 Illawong?
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. Sutherland Shire Council follows the codes; foreshore, bushfire and heritage areas (Cronulla, Sutherland, Como) affect exemptions. Pool barriers must comply with AS 1926.1-2012 regardless. We tell you what we see on site, but only Sutherland 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 Illawong neighbour, and can quote each side separately if you prefer.
Can you remove the old fence in Illawong?
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.
Is the ground in Illawong a problem for posts?
Sandstone plateau with bushland reserves on many rear boundaries; coastal sand and salt around Cronulla, Kurnell and the bays. 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.
