About timber fencing
Timber remains the budget-friendly boundary option and the character choice for front fences. Treated pine palings keep cost down, hardwood posts and plinths add decades of life where soil contact rots pine first. Expect a well-built paling fence to last 15 to 25 years depending on timber, drainage and whether sprinklers soak it daily.
Getting quotes in Hobart
For timber fencing, ask each fencer two things up front: the all-inclusive price, and how soon they can attend Hobart. If the job is not urgent, saying so can shave real money off the quote, since operators can slot you into an existing South East Coast run.
Local knowledge counts
Hobart sits in the South East Coast area. Mention the suburb when you enquire and ask the provider to confirm travel, availability and any callout component before you agree to work.
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.
