A new fence transforms a property's privacy, security, and street appeal. With so many fencing styles and contractors available in Perth, here's what to look for when choosing a fencing company.
Popular Fencing Styles in Perth
Colorbond steel: The most popular choice in Perth — durable, low maintenance, and available in a range of colours. Ideal for boundary and side fencing. Timber: Cedar and pine paling fences offer a natural look and good value, though they require periodic sealing. Pool fencing: Frameless or semi-frameless glass panels are popular for pool surrounds. Must comply with WA pool fencing regulations. Brick and limestone: Solid and permanent, common for front fences in established Perth suburbs.
How Much Does Fencing Cost in Perth?
Colorbond fencing runs $80–$130 per linear metre installed. Timber paling fencing is $70–$110 per metre. Frameless glass pool fencing costs $350–$650 per metre. Prices vary with fence height, site conditions, and whether old fence removal is included.
Do You Need a Permit?
Most standard boundary fences in WA don't require a building permit if they're under 1.8m high. Pool fencing and front fences over certain heights may require council approval. Your fencing contractor should advise on permit requirements for your specific job.
