Side Fencing in South Turramurra: the short answer

Fencing and Landscaping Experts provide side fencing throughout South Turramurra, NSW 2074, in Ku-ring-gai Council's area on the Upper 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. Bushfire prone land applies to much of the suburb, so material within the asset protection zone has to be non-combustible. For side fencing in South Turramurra, the standard is a 1.8m side boundary fence. Per lineal metre supplied and installed, after a free on-site measure. Licensed in NSW, insured to $20 million.

Side Fencing in South Turramurra 2074

South Turramurra's national park interface makes it bushfire prone land, which rules out timber fencing within the asset protection zone on a lot of these properties. That is the backdrop to every side fencing job we do in South Turramurra 2074, where the service is the long run down the side of the block, usually the hardest fence to get to and the one that shows every setting-out error.

Side boundaries are where access problems live. Materials often have to come through a gate barely wider than a wheelbarrow, and the run has to stay dead straight over its full length, so we set out off confirmed corner points rather than measuring off the house. Upper North Shore side boundaries are long — 40 to 60 metres is normal — and they usually pass mature trees whose root zones dictate where posts can and cannot go. Sandstone sits close to the surface across much of South Turramurra, so posts are often drilled into rock and chemically anchored rather than concreted into a dug hole.

Working in South Turramurra means working with steep fall to the Lane Cove National Park boundary, with shallow soil over rock on the lower sections — and with post-war and 1970s homes on sloping blocks, many with a bushland rear boundary. No two streets here price the same, which is why we quote South Turramurra jobs after a free on-site measure rather than off a rate card.

Local Knowledge: South Turramurra 2074

We work across South Turramurra and the surrounding Upper North Shore suburbs, and the local conditions genuinely change the job. The Upper North Shore is Sydney's leafiest fencing environment. Large blocks, mature canopy and Ku-ring-gai and Hornsby's tree-protection controls mean post holes frequently land inside a tree protection zone, and heritage conservation areas set the tone for what a front fence is allowed to look like.

For side fencing specifically, the constraints that come up most often in South Turramurra are tree protection zones, heritage conservation area controls and sloping sandstone-over-shale blocks. Ku-ring-gai Council is the consent authority for South Turramurra, 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.

Side Fencing South Turramurra FAQs

How high can a side fence be in South Turramurra?

1.8 metres is the standard side boundary height in South Turramurra and the figure most exempt development provisions are written around. Going higher is possible but is more likely to need approval from Ku-ring-gai Council, and it is worth discussing with your neighbour first since a side fence is a shared dividing fence under the Act.

Who pays for the side fence in South Turramurra?

A side fence between two properties in South Turramurra is a dividing fence, so the cost is normally shared equally between adjoining owners under the NSW Dividing Fences Act 1991. Where you want more than a sufficient fence — extra height, a premium material — you generally fund the difference yourself.

Can you install a side fence with no vehicle access?

Yes. Most South Turramurra properties have good vehicle access, though long side runs past mature trees still mean a fair amount of hand-carrying. On restricted South Turramurra sites we size and stage the material so it can be carried in by hand, and we plan the sequence so the last panels are not trapped behind the ones already built.

What if the side boundary slopes?

South Turramurra blocks fall enough that a level fence line is rarely the right answer. We step the panels down the fall in short runs, or rake the panels to follow the ground where the style allows. Where the level change across the boundary is large, a low retaining wall with the fence built above it is usually the better solution.

Can you add a side gate?

Yes, and it is worth sizing it properly at the outset. A 900mm pedestrian gate suits foot traffic, but if the passage allows it and you need to get a mower, bins, a trailer or building materials down the side of a South Turramurra property, a wider 1.2m to 1.5m gate saves years of frustration for very little extra cost.

Which parts of South Turramurra do you cover for side fencing?

All of South Turramurra 2074, plus the surrounding streets in Turramurra, Pymble, West Pymble and North Epping. South Turramurra is characterised by post-war and 1970s homes on sloping blocks, many with a bushland rear boundary, 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.
