A checklist before hiring any fencing in Mortdale, Sydney.

Verify their electrical licence is current at your state's electrical safety authority (e.g. Energy Safe Victoria, NSW Fair Trading).
- 2
Confirm they carry public liability insurance of at least $5 million — ask to see the certificate.
- 3
Get 2–3 written quotes for any job over $500. A written quote protects both parties and clarifies the full scope.

FAQs — Fencing in Mortdale, Sydney
How much does a fence cost in Australia?
Colorbond fencing costs $70–$120 per metre installed. Timber paling fences cost $60–$100 per metre. Pool fencing (frameless glass) costs $300–$600 per metre. Always get 3 quotes as prices vary significantly by region and installer.
Who is responsible for paying for a boundary fence?
Under Australian fencing legislation, the cost of a standard dividing fence is shared equally between neighbours. You must give your neighbour a Fencing Notice before starting work. If they don't respond within 30 days, you can proceed and recover half the cost through VCAT, NCAT, or equivalent tribunal.
Do I need council approval for a fence?
Fences up to 2m high generally don't require council approval in residential areas. Fences in front yards typically have lower height limits (1.2–1.5m). Fences in heritage overlays, bushfire zones, or near intersections may require a planning permit. Check your council's requirements.
What is the best fencing material for Australia?
Colorbond steel is the most popular choice — durable, low maintenance, and available in 22 colours. Hardwood timber is attractive but requires regular oiling/painting. Aluminium is lightweight and rust-proof. For pools, toughened glass provides unobstructed views. Choose material based on privacy needs, budget, and maintenance preference.
How long does a Colorbond fence last?
A quality Colorbond fence with proper installation typically lasts 20–30+ years. BlueScope Steel's Colorbond warranty covers against chipping, peeling, and cracking for 10 years. Posts must be correctly set in concrete footings to achieve maximum lifespan.
