Local notes for Watsons Bay

What we look for at the measure in Watsons Bay – steep sandstone slopes to the harbour; salt exposure and rock close to the surface on many blocks.

Heritage conservation areas cover most of Paddington, Woollahra and Double Bay – front fences must match period styles and generally need approval.
Steep, tight access is normal – we allow for hand-carrying and stepped construction.
Aluminium in heritage-inspired profiles or slat/louvre screens suit the harbour-facing blocks where salt would attack steel.

Fencing questions in Watsons Bay

Do you service Watsons Bay?

Yes. Watsons Bay 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 Watsons Bay?

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. Woollahra Municipal Council's heritage conservation areas control front-fence height, materials and style across most of the municipality. Pool barriers must comply with AS 1926.1-2012 regardless. We tell you what we see on site, but only Woollahra Municipal 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 Watsons Bay neighbour, and can quote each side separately if you prefer.

How soon can you start in Watsons Bay?

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.

Is the ground in Watsons Bay a problem for posts?

Steep sandstone slopes to the harbour; salt exposure and rock close to the surface on many blocks. 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.
