Colorbond fencing in Auburn, built for narrow blocks, townhouse boundaries and yards that back onto light industry or a busy road.
Auburn is dense. Houses sit close together, plenty of blocks have been redeveloped into duplexes and townhouses, and residential streets run right up against warehousing and workshops. Fencing here is less about long open runs and more about getting a solid, private boundary into a space that has very little room to work in.
We plan the access before we plan the fence. If a truck cannot get near the boundary, the posts get dug by hand, the spoil gets barrowed out and the sheets get carried through in sections. Where a yard backs onto a commercial site or a main road, going to 2.1m makes a noticeable difference to both privacy and the amount of noise that carries over. Colorbond will not block sound completely, but a solid steel sheet does far more than a paling fence with gaps in it.
We will look at the access, confirm what can be done and give you a fixed written quote with no surprises on the day. Call 0492 879 796 to book a free measure.

Solid 2.1m runs that cut sightlines and reduce noise from Auburn main roads.
Fencing where a residential yard shares a line with a workshop or warehouse.
Posts core drilled or bracketed into an existing block retaining wall.
Lockable pedestrian gates for the shared drives common on Auburn duplex sites.
Yes, we do it regularly. Where a truck cannot reach the boundary, footings are dug by hand, spoil is barrowed out and the panels are carried in through the house side or over the fence in sections. It takes longer than a machine dig so we allow for it in the quote rather than discovering it on the day, which is why we always look at the access before pricing an Auburn job.
It helps, but no fence eliminates it. A solid sheet steel fence with no gaps blocks more sound than a paling fence, and going to 2.1m rather than 1.8m puts more mass between the yard and the road. The bigger gains come from combining height with planting inside the fence. For a yard fronting a busy Auburn road we would generally recommend the taller run.
You serve a fencing notice, which is a written proposal under the NSW Dividing Fences Act 1991 stating the fence you want, the contractor and the amount quoted. The neighbour has thirty days to reply. In Auburn many properties are investor owned or occupied by tenants, so check the ownership before serving the notice. If there is no agreement the Local Court or NCAT can decide the contribution.
Usually yes. On the Auburn blocks that have been cut and retained with besser block, we can core drill the posts into the top of the wall or use base plates bolted through, provided the wall is sound and thick enough to take the load. We check the wall before quoting, because a fence on top of an unstable retaining wall is a problem waiting to happen.
We install genuine BlueScope steel, which the manufacturer spells Colorbond even though most people search for colourbond. That matters because the real product has the correct base metal thickness and the factory baked paint system that carries a written warranty. Imported lookalike sheeting is thinner, dents more easily and fades unevenly, which shows badly on the tight boundaries around Auburn where you see the fence up close.
