About retaining walls
Fence lines on sloping blocks often need retaining first, and combining wall and fence in one job gets the engineering and the levels right. Walls above roughly 600mm to 1 metre, depending on the state, need engineering or council approval, and drainage behind the wall decides whether it lasts. Concrete sleepers now dominate over timber for anything meant to outlive a decade.
Getting quotes in Adelaide
When you enquire about retaining walls, describe the job specifically: what is happening, how long it has been going on, and anything you have already tried. Specific enquiries get accurate quotes; vague ones get a callout fee and an on-site surprise.
Local knowledge counts
Because fencers in the Inner Adelaide region tend to group nearby jobs, flexible timing works in your favour in Adelaide: if the work can wait a day or two, say so and ask whether that changes the price.
Quick answers
Colorbond or timber, which is better?+
Colorbond wins on lifespan and zero maintenance; timber wins on upfront cost and looks where a painted or natural finish suits the streetscape. In termite-prone and bushfire-prone areas steel has a clear practical edge. Many blocks sensibly mix both: Colorbond on the boundaries, timber out front.
How much does fencing cost per metre?+
Timber paling fences typically cost $75 to $130 per metre installed, Colorbond $85 to $150, tubular aluminium $120 to $250, and frameless glass pool fencing $275 to $600. Gates, old fence removal and sloping ground add to any of these. Per-metre quotes should state height and materials precisely.
Who pays for a boundary fence between neighbours?+
In every state the default is a half share each for a sufficient dividing fence, with formal notice processes if a neighbour will not engage. Anything above a basic sufficient fence, extra height, premium materials, is paid by the person who wants it. Put the agreement in writing before work starts; fencing disputes are tribunal staples.
