How we work
Our fence repair & installation process
- 1
Source matched timber
Replacement palings sourced to match weathered tone — looks like a repair, not a patchwork.
- 2
Set posts properly
Posts in concrete or post-mix to depth, not just shoved into dirt.
- 3
Rehang and align
Gates checked through full swing; latches aligned to close cleanly.
Local context
Bondi boundary fences sit between heritage terraces and post-war flats — neighbours have very different ideas about what's acceptable. We'll quote the job and stay out of the boundary disputes.
Fence Repair & Installation questions, answered
Do I need a fence permit in Bondi?
Most boundary fences under 1.8m are exempt. Heritage areas, corner blocks, and pool fences have separate rules — we'll flag if your job needs council involvement.Can you replace just one post in a long run?
Yes. We take the panels off either side, replace the post, and refit the panels.

Fence Painting
A freshly painted fence lifts a Bondi street frontage more than almost anything else. We strip back, prep, and apply two coats of exterior paint or stain — timber paling, capped, or Colorbond touch-up.
Deck Repair
Bondi decks suffer the worst of two worlds — sun-baking in summer and salt-misted in winter. We replace rotten boards, refasten lifting screws, repair handrails, and replace bearers when the rot has reached the structure.
Timber Rot Repair
Salt mist, intermittent rain, and summer humidity turn Bondi timber into a slow-cooked mess. We splice out rotten sections of window sills, fascia boards, eaves, and door frames, and finish with marine-grade primers built for the coast.
Pergola Repair & Maintenance
Pergolas in Bondi cop sun, salt, and intermittent vine weight — we repair sagging beams, replace rotten posts, refasten lifted brackets, and oil or paint to spec.
