Fencing Rockbank

For most new builds, the answer starts with your estate’s design guidelines. Many new estates in the area specify 1.8 metre lapped and capped timber paling with exposed posts for side and rear boundaries, while front fences usually need to be lower and more open, which is where aluminium slat designs are popular. Within those rules, the best choice comes down to your budget, the look you’re after and how much privacy you need.

Yes, gates can be added at any time, and we regularly retrofit side gates, rear garden gates, and even driveway gates to existing fences. That said, if you know you’ll want a gate later, it’s smart to let us know during your fence installation. We can prepare the structure and posts accordingly, saving you time and costs down the line.

Our gates are fully customisable in Colorbond, timber, or aluminium to match your fence style. Whether you need a simple side-access gate or something larger and more secure, we’ll make sure it looks good, functions smoothly, and holds up to daily use.

We offer several timber fencing styles to suit both front and backyard applications in Rockbank. The most common (due to fencing design covenants common in the area) is the lapped and capped with exposed post timber paling fence, which is cost-effective and also aesthetically neat. If you’re after something with more visual impact for a front fence, we can add lattice tops, feature posts, or decorative slat infills to the front or side panels. We use quality treated pine or hardwood, depending on your preferences and budget, and ensure all timber is suited to Rockbank’s climate and developer guidelines.

Yes. Any pool or spa deeper than 30cm must be fully enclosed with a compliant safety barrier, in line with Victorian Building Authority (VBA) regulations. This includes permanent and portable pools. The fencing must be at least 1.2 metres high, be non-climbable, and have a self-closing, self-latching gate that opens outward from the pool area.

We install aluminium pool fencing that meets these legal requirements while still looking sharp and modern. After installation, your pool fence will need to be inspected and certified through the Melton City Council, and re-certified every four years. We’ll make sure your fence is not only legal but also stylish and secure.

If you’re after a “set and forget” solution, Colorbond and aluminium fencing are by far the lowest-maintenance options available. They don’t require painting, staining, or sealing. They won’t rot like timber or rust like untreated metal, and they hold up exceptionally well against sun, rain, and wind, perfect for Rockbank’s open and often exposed estates.

Colorbond fencing is fully solid for maximum privacy, while aluminium is ideal for front yards, pool areas, or decorative screening. Both options are easy to clean with just a hose-down and occasional wipe. They’re perfect for busy families, investors, or anyone who doesn’t want to deal with ongoing upkeep.

Not necessarily. As long as we have clear access to the fence line and there are no issues with pets, locked gates, or obstructions, we can complete the job without you needing to be there. We’ll confirm everything in advance, including measurements, material choices, and layout, so there are no surprises.

Of course, you’re welcome to be on-site if you’d like to oversee the installation or ask questions. Either way, we’ll keep you updated throughout the process and ensure the site is clean and tidy once the job’s done.
