Natural-Looking Fencing for Your Property


Timber fencing remains one of the most popular choices for residential properties, thanks to its natural look and versatility. It works well for boundary lines, front gardens, backyards and feature sections where privacy or security is needed without sacrificing visual appeal.


Timber suits a range of property styles, from heritage homes to modern builds, and can be painted, stained or left to weather naturally. It’s ideal for sloped or uneven ground where panel fencing may not fit as smoothly. Timber fencing can also be used decoratively to frame gardens, screen off areas or provide a soft contrast to steel or masonry. If you're also considering Colorbond, heritage-style or post fencing, we can guide you through the best options for your property.

Why Choose Timber Fencing?

Timber fencing offers a balance of function, flexibility and classic design.



  • Naturally Appealing
    The warm, organic finish of timber suits both traditional and modern homes. It blends easily into gardens and outdoor spaces for a softer look.
  • Customisable Styles
    Timber can be cut, shaped or styled to match your property. From picket fencing to high privacy screens, it offers a broad range of design options.
  • Easily Repairable
    Individual boards or posts can be replaced without pulling down entire sections. This makes maintenance affordable and straightforward over time.
  • Suitable for Sloping Land
    Unlike rigid panel systems, timber fencing can be stepped or raked to suit uneven or sloped ground, making it highly adaptable across varied terrain.
