South Australia Fencing Regulations
We ensure compliance with South Australian fencing laws, covering:
- Height limits (typically 2.1m for backyard fences, unless approved)

- Good neighbor fencing protocols

We handle council approvals and neighbor discussions to make the process seamless.
Fence Maintenance Tips for Longevity
Extend your fence’s life with these tips:
- Colorbond: Hose off twice yearly to remove dirt.
- Timber: Re-stain or paint every 2–3 years to prevent rot.
- Post & Rail: Clear weeds and moisture from base posts.
- All Fences: Tighten or replace loose fixings annually.
Regular checks prevent minor issues from becoming costly repairs.
