Experienced Gisborne Fencing Contractors
Gisborne still has plenty of large, leafy blocks, while newer estates have added smaller lots with neighbours on every side. So one home needs a private Colorbond boundary between two new houses, and the next a long run of timber around a leafy garden.
Whether it's a new home off Ross Watt Road or a semi-rural property out towards Mount Gisborne Reserve, we build Colorbond, timber, aluminium and steel fences, pool fencing, gates and retaining walls. As a Macedon Ranges fencing company, we start every fence installation with a free measure, so the quote matches your boundary, slope and gate openings.
Here's why Gisborne homeowners choose us for their fencing:
- Quality Materials: Posts, rails and sheeting chosen for the fence you want and the ground it stands in.
- Reasonable Rates: Affordable fencing priced on your actual boundary, not a rough guess per metre.
- Reliable Service: Calls returned, a start date you can plan around, and a clean site when we leave.
If you want fence builders who measure up first and build what's on the quote, we're ready to help across Gisborne.

Our Gisborne Fencing Services
Colorbond Fencing Gisborne
On newer estate lots, the side and rear boundaries often go up soon after the house, and Colorbond gives both neighbours a solid, private divide with no painting to argue over later. It's a popular choice for residential fencing because the steel holds its colour and won't rot or warp.
Timber Fencing Gisborne
Timber sits naturally beside established trees and older homes, whether it's a paling boundary or a merbau slat front fence. Posts rated for ground contact and hardwood or treated pine rails keep it straight through cold, wet winters.
Aluminium Fencing Gisborne
A front fence is the first thing visitors notice, and aluminium slat, picket or tubular panels give it a clean, modern line. The powder-coated finish can match window frames and garage doors, and it won't need repainting.
Pool Fencing Gisborne
Every pool barrier needs to be at least 1.2 metres high, with self-closing, self-latching gates and nothing nearby a child could climb. Glass, aluminium and steel rod barriers are set out with the four-yearly compliance inspection in mind.
Steel Fencing Gisborne
Larger blocks and long driveways suit the strength and street presence of a steel front fence. Tubular, picket and palisade profiles come powder coated or galvanised, so the boundary stays secure and rust-free.
Gates Gisborne
Side gates, pedestrian gates and swing or sliding driveway gates are built to match the fence beside them. On a longer driveway, an automated gate saves getting out of the car on a cold morning.
Commercial Fencing Gisborne
Shops, schools, sporting clubs and building sites need fencing that controls who comes and goes. Chainwire, mesh panels and steel palisade are planned around access points, gates and how the site runs day to day.
Retaining Walls Gisborne
With the town sitting in a valley below the Jacksons Creek escarpment, plenty of blocks have some fall across them. A sleeper retaining wall levels the ground for lawn, garden beds or a new fence line, with drainage behind it so it stays upright.
Cut corners on the posts and you'll be paying for the same fence twice.
Posts set too shallow, footings too small for the fence going on top, or rails fixed to timber that isn't rated for the ground can all leave a fence leaning within a few winters. Gates start to drag, gaps open under the panels and the line wanders off the boundary. By then, fixing it usually means pulling the fence out and starting again.
Why Choose Us?
Trusted Fencing Contractors Gisborne
A fence stays straight when the posts are set for the ground they're in. Parts of the area sit on basalt from old lava flows, so a post hole can hit rock. When it does, we drill into the rock or adjust the post spacing instead of settling for a shallow hole, and footings are sized for the height and weight of the fence.
As fence builders, we also know the frustration of chasing a quote or waiting on a start date that keeps moving. Your quote sets out the heights, materials and gates in writing, and we turn up on the days we've agreed.
Here's what we bring to every fence we build:
Quality Materials
Galvanised posts, Colorbond sheeting, hardwood and treated pine rated for the ground, so your fence keeps its shape and finish through frosty winters and dry summers.
Reasonable Rates
Prices are based on the length, height and materials your boundary needs, with gates and any old fence removal itemised, so you can see where the money goes.
Reliable Service
Your free measure is booked promptly, your fence quote arrives in writing, and you're kept updated from the first post to the final gate check.
For fencing Gisborne homeowners can rely on from the first post hole to the last gate, we're the team to call. Phone (03) 9605 3505 for a free quote.

Site Preparation
The old fence is pulled out and taken away, and the line is cleared of plants and debris. We then string the boundary and mark each post position so the new fence runs straight.

Installation
Post holes are dug or drilled and the posts concreted in at the depth the fence height calls for. Once the concrete has set, the sheets, palings or panels go up and the gates are hung and adjusted.

Your Finished Fence
We clear away offcuts and spoil from the post holes, then check every gate opens and latches with you. You're left with a straight, private boundary and a yard that's ready for the kids, the dog or the garden.
Gisborne Fencing FAQs
Do I need a permit for a front fence in a heritage area?
Sometimes. The town centre has a heritage precinct around Hamilton Street, home to the 1858 former court house and police station, and a property covered by a Heritage Overlay can need a planning permit for a new front fence, even when the fence is low enough not to need a building permit. A free planning property report from VicPlan shows whether your block has an overlay.
Height limits, dividing fence rules and the other fencing regulations in the Macedon Ranges apply on top of any overlay, so it pays to check before ordering materials.
If you're planning a timber picket fence for a period home, call us on (03) 9605 3505 and we'll suggest a style that suits the house.
Are there fencing rules in new estates?
Often, yes. Many new estates have restrictive covenants on the title that set the height, material or colour of fences, and some need the developer to approve a front fence before it's built. Your contract of sale or the title will list any covenants that apply.
Some estates allow a low front fence and others don't allow one at all, so check the guidelines before choosing between options like timber pickets or an aluminium front fence.
Send us your estate's fencing guidelines when you request a quote and we'll price a fence that meets them.
How much does a new fence cost?
The material, length, height and number of gates set most of the price. On top of that, the ground matters: rock in the post holes or a fall across the boundary adds time, and a long boundary on a larger block costs more in total even when the rate per metre is similar.
Smaller estate lots usually have shorter runs and flatter ground, so the same fence often comes in lower overall. A measured quote is the only way to account for your block.
