Timber Fence Styles We Build
We install the full range of timber fence styles to match your property and budget. Standard paling fences offer reliable boundary privacy at the best value. Lapped and capped fences add a more finished, premium edge. Slatted and batten styles give a contemporary look with controlled light and airflow, ideal for modern Auckland homes.
Every fence is built around quality posts set in concrete, with rails and palings fixed to last. We can also integrate matching gates, so your entrance flows seamlessly with the rest of the boundary.
Built for Auckland Conditions
Auckland's climate is hard on timber — high rainfall, humidity, and coastal salt all accelerate decay if a fence is built poorly. We use correctly treated timber for ground contact, galvanised or stainless fixings, and proper drainage detailing around posts to prevent rot at the base, which is where most timber fences fail first.
The result is a fence that holds its line and finish far longer than a quick, low-spec install.
Our Installation Process
We start with an on-site assessment to check boundary lines, ground conditions, and any council height rules that apply. We then provide a clear written quote with no surprises. On installation day our team sets posts accurately, builds the framework square and level, and finishes with a tidy site clean-up. Most standard residential timber fences are completed within a few days.
Timber Fence — Frequently Asked Questions
A correctly built timber fence using treated timber and quality fixings typically lasts 15–20 years or more in Auckland. Lifespan depends heavily on timber treatment level, drainage around posts, and regular maintenance such as staining every few years.
Both protect the timber, but staining is usually recommended as it soaks in, resists peeling, and is easier to refresh. We can leave the fence raw for you to finish, or arrange professional fence painting as part of the job.
Under Auckland's rules, a fence up to 2 metres high on a boundary generally does not require consent, though front boundary and corner-site rules can differ. We check the specifics for your property before quoting.
Yes. We can match paling width, height, capping, and style so a new or extended section blends with your existing fence rather than standing out.
