Do I need a permit for a front fence?
Often yes. Each Melbourne council has slightly different rules. We don’t apply for permits on your behalf, but we’ll explain what’s needed, help you measure correctly, and direct you to the right department at your council.
Can you match my existing gate or fence?
Yes, in most cases. We can replicate most picket profiles, post caps, and colours to keep a consistent look.
What’s the best timber for a picket fence?
Hardwood for longevity, treated pine for budget-friendly.
Do I need my neighbour’s approval?
For front fences, generally no (unless it also forms part of a shared boundary), but for side return fencing that ties into a neighbour’s property, yes.
