Timber Fencing FAQs
Get expert answers on timber fencing materials, lifespan, council rules, styles, maintenance tips, and cost estimates for Brisbane and Ipswich homeowners.
We use treated pine or hardwood, depending on your preference and the project requirements. All timber is compliant with AS 1604 for outdoor preservation.
In most cases, fences under 2 metres high don’t require approval. However, if your property borders a road, park, or easement, additional council requirements may apply. We can assist you with local compliance.
With proper maintenance and using treated materials, a timber fence can last 10–20 years or more. Using galvanised steel posts can further extend its lifespan.
Capped fences include a top rail for a neater, more polished look. Lapped fences provide better privacy by overlapping palings — ideal for boundary fences.
We use pressure-treated timber rated to H4 or H5 hazard levels for ground contact, ensuring long-term resistance to decay and termites.
Yes. Once your fence has cured (usually a few weeks), you can paint or stain it to match your property. This also helps preserve its longevity.
Both are excellent. Hardwood offers natural aesthetics, while galvanised RHS steel posts are longer-lasting and ideal for high-moisture or sloped sites.
Prices vary depending on height, style, and length. Most projects range between $90–$130 per metre installed. We provide transparent quotes with no hidden fees.
