Whether you’re installing a brand new fence, replacing an old one, or simply upgrading for style, there are a few key things to consider before starting your project.

What Do You Want Your Fence to Do?

Start by asking yourself what the primary purpose of your new fence is, as that will guide everything from material choice to height.

If you’re repairing storm-damaged panels or upgrading gate hardware, New Fence Perth can match existing materials or suggest smart alternatives.

Questions to Consider Before You Begin

• Permits: Will you need council approval for your project in Bull Creek? New Fence Perth can help you check local requirements.
• Timelines: How soon do you need the fence done — and how long will it take? We’ll give you realistic estimates upfront.
• Underground services: Are there water, power or gas lines where you’re digging? Always a crucial step before starting any install or repair.

Fence Installation Costs (and What Affects Them)

Wrought iron, Colorbond, aluminium slats, timber, electric fencing — each comes with its own price point and lifespan.

• Hiring a professional vs DIY (we’re happy to do either part or all of the job)
• Permit fees (if applicable in your council area)
• Site prep and grading (especially important on sloped or rocky blocks)
• Equipment rental or purchase (you may not need to buy tools if New Fence Perth is handling the job)

Saving Money (Without Cutting Corners)

You can keep costs down by choosing simpler designs (like no lattice or toppers), doing some site prep yourself, or opting for fencing styles that offer good durability at lower cost.
