Licensed fence installation in McMahons Point — Colorbond, timber, aluminium, pool and boundary fencing, built to last.
Fencing and Landscaping Experts provide fencing throughout McMahons Point, NSW 2060, in North Sydney Council's area on the Lower North Shore. The ground here is sandstone shelf close to the surface, so posts are frequently drilled and chemically anchored into sandstone rather than concreted into a dug hole. Heritage items and conservation areas are common locally, which controls what a street-facing fence may look like. For fencing in McMahons Point, the standard height is 1.8m for side and rear dividing fences. Per lineal metre supplied and installed, after a free on-site measure. Licensed in NSW, insured to $20 million. Phone 0492 879 796.
We work on fencing throughout McMahons Point 2060, where the service covers every boundary, front, side and pool fence type we install, from Colorbond and treated pine to aluminium slat and frameless glass. With narrow heritage terraces and cottages stepped down the hill, no two streets in McMahons Point present the same problem.
Every job starts with a free on-site measure so the quote reflects the actual fall, access and ground conditions rather than a per-metre guess. Posts are set in properly formed concrete footings sized for the fence height and the soil we find on the day. On the Lower North Shore the site is usually harder than the job: narrow frontages, shared driveways and sandstone shelf mean footings are often cored rather than dug. Sandstone sits close to the surface across much of McMahons Point, so posts are often drilled into rock and chemically anchored rather than concreted into a dug hole.
The ground under McMahons Point is very steep sandstone falling to Lavender Bay, heavily terraced, and the suburb is built out with narrow heritage terraces and cottages stepped down the hill. Those two facts decide footing depth, material choice and how long the job takes, so we measure on site before we price anything in North Sydney Council's area.

We work across McMahons Point and the surrounding Lower North Shore suburbs, and the local conditions genuinely change the job. Lower North Shore sites are tight, steep and often heritage listed. Access is usually the hardest part of the job: narrow frontages, shared driveways, harbour slopes and sandstone shelf under a shallow layer of soil.
For fencing specifically, the constraints that come up most often in McMahons Point are narrow access, sandstone shelf, foreshore building lines and heritage conservation area controls. North Sydney Council is the consent authority for McMahons Point, so where approval is needed that is the path we work through with you — and we identify that before quoting rather than halfway through the job.
Fencing in McMahons Point is quoted per lineal metre supplied and installed, and the number moves with the material, the height, the fall across the site and how easily we can get materials to the fence line. Access is a genuine cost factor in McMahons Point — where materials have to be carried down a stepped side path or worked off a slope rather than delivered straight to the work, the labour component rises. We give you a fixed written price after a free McMahons Point site measure so there are no variations once work starts.
In McMahons Point it depends where the fence is. To the street, painted timber pickets, palisade or rendered piers suit the period housing and satisfy conservation area expectations. Behind the building line, Colorbond is the low-maintenance default for side and rear boundaries.
Most standard boundary fencing in McMahons Point is exempt development and needs no approval from North Sydney Council, provided it stays within the usual height limits and is not on a heritage item or in a conservation area. Front fencing, anything over the standard height, and work on heritage or bushfire prone land are the common exceptions — we tell you which category your job falls into before quoting.
A typical residential fence in McMahons Point is installed in one to two days once the old fence is removed. 2060 jobs with difficult access, rock, or long stepped runs take longer, and we set out a clear timeline in the quote rather than leaving it open.
Yes. Under the NSW Dividing Fences Act 1991 a dividing fence in McMahons Point is usually a shared cost between adjoining owners. We provide a written quote you can give your neighbour, and if needed we can quote the sufficient-fence standard separately from any upgrade you want on top of it.
All of McMahons Point 2060, plus the surrounding streets in North Sydney, Lavender Bay, Waverton and Kirribilli. McMahons Point is characterised by narrow heritage terraces and cottages stepped down the hill, and we schedule around what that means on the ground rather than booking a standard slot. We give you a firm start date with the quote rather than an open-ended window.
