Fencing Material Options Available In Australia

• Timber Fencing: The usage of timber fences helps in reducing the cost, ease of installation, and distinctive appearance. Moreover, depending on the style you have chosen, timber fencing can be painted, stained, treated, or left natural. Remember that untreated wood is prone to insect damage and that you should refinish or restain wood every few years. The picket, louvre, panel, and paling fence forms are popular types of wood fencing.


• Colorbond Fences: Australians use the Colorbond fence trademark for steel goods, which also includes roofing. Homeowners adore Colorbond because it is maintenance deficient, highly durable, and available in various patterns and hues. In terms of price, this is a mid-range fencing choice.


• Concrete Or Brick Fences: If built properly, brick or concrete fence, like Colorbond or steel fencing, is incredibly robust and likely to outlive all other forms of fencing. Brick fences can be coated smooth or left untreated as face brick and cemented over. The brick and concrete fence is in the middle of the price range.


• PVC Or Vinyl Fences: A vinyl fence is a strong plastic resin that is good at resilience to corrosion, peeling, and chipping. Even though it has to be painted or treated, once placed, it requires little upkeep. Although vinyl fencing initially costs more than a timber fence, the fence's long lifespan offsets this difference in cost due to lack of maintenance.


• Glass-Panel Fences: Glass fencing is a common choice for pool fencing as it is strong and doesn't block your view. Additionally, it requires very little upkeep, though you do need to clean it sometimes. Glass fences are more expensive than other types of fencing, and its installation requires a specialized contractor.


• Living Fences: Have you ever considered using trees, hedges, or even a trellis covered with climbing plants as a living fence? This is a fantastic way to have a practical fence with some foliage around your house. Maintaining your hedge requires some upkeep, which you should plan for in your long-term budget.




It's a good idea to plan your fencing based on your garden and backyard landscape. To do this, you'll need help from landscapers and gardeners to make sure you make the right choices.
