Sydney, NSW . price report
Fencing cost in Sydney
Fencing is quoted per metre and the material decides the band: timber and Colorbond dominate boundaries, aluminium and steel price higher for pools and frontages.
See also: Landscaping cost, Concreting cost, Tree Removal cost.
The national ranges below are the honest baseline for Sydney: no published Sydney-specific figures met our sourcing bar, so local quotes land inside these bands, with NSW labour rates and disposal fees the main local variables. This edition therefore points at the national Fencing report as the canonical version until a sourced Sydney figure lands.
Price ranges by job#
Figures are GST-inclusive guides compiled from published Australian cost sources. Bars sit on a shared log-scale axis (declared on the chart), so per-unit rates and whole-job prices read together; colour marks the position, money-green at the value end to ochre at the premium end.
- Timber$75 to $120 per metre
- Colorbond$85 to $150 per metre
- Aluminium$150 to $350 per metre

Common questions#
Does my neighbour have to pay half for a boundary fence?
In most states adjoining owners share equally in a sufficient dividing fence. Serve the required fencing notice first; if you skip the process you may carry the whole cost.
Colorbond or timber: which is better value?
Timber is cheaper upfront but needs maintenance and lasts 15 to 20 years. Colorbond costs slightly more, needs none, and typically outlasts it.
