Fencing Across Greater Geelong

Geelong Fence Contractor, Based on the Bellarine

We fence homes right across Greater Geelong, from the streets near the waterfront on Corio Bay to the established blocks of Newtown and Highton and the growing suburbs of Belmont and Geelong West. The job changes with the suburb. Hillside blocks in places like Highton mean stepped or raked runs, older streets usually mean an old fence to pull out first, and blocks near the bay take more wind.

Wind off Corio Bay puts real load on a badly built fence near the water, and salt air works on cheap fittings well inland. So every Geelong job gets poured concrete footings, galvanised fittings and Bugle Batten screws, the same build we use on the coast.

Most of what we build here is Colorbond and timber: side and rear boundaries, front feature fences and gates to match, across East Geelong, South Geelong, Manifold Heights, Herne Hill and the suburbs around them. We also repair storm damage and general wear and tear.

Geelong FAQ

Common Questions About Fencing in Geelong

How much does fencing cost in Geelong?

In Geelong the suburb shapes the quote. Hillside blocks in places like Highton need stepped or raked panels, which use more material and time than a flat run. Older streets often have a fence to remove first, quoted as its own line. Tight access can mean digging by hand instead of with a machine, and blocks near Corio Bay may need closer post spacing for the wind. Colorbond and hardwood timber palings also sit at different price points. We quote on site anywhere in Greater Geelong — call 0485 577 980 to arrange a visit.

Does wind from Corio Bay affect fencing in Geelong suburbs?

Yes. Wind off Corio Bay is a real issue for properties in East Geelong, South Geelong and the suburbs near the waterfront. A fence on an exposed block with light footings or undersized posts can fail in a strong westerly or southerly. We pour concrete footings and size the posts and rails to how exposed your block is, rather than using one specification everywhere.

Do I need a council permit for a fence in Geelong?

Greater Geelong falls under the City of Greater Geelong council. A building permit is needed for a side or rear fence over 2 metres, a front fence over 1.5 metres within 3 metres of the street, a corner fence over 1 metre within 9 metres of an intersecting street, and a brick or masonry fence over 1.2 metres. A planning permit is a separate approval and can apply on its own, for example under a Heritage Overlay. We recommend checking with the City of Greater Geelong for your specific property before work begins.
