Not all fencing provides the same benefits to a home or property. For an industrial or commercial site, safety and security are the highest priorities, while keeping the budget in mind. Our expert fencing contractors will tell you that your best bet is to choose high-quality galvanized steel fencing and gates.
Steel fencing, such as ColorBond or PermaSteel, is affordable, durable against the harsh Australian climate, offers complete privacy and is very difficult for intruders to climb – due to the lack of hand and footholds.
Part of the low cost of steel fencing is thanks to the little to no maintenance required to keep it looking great as there is no risk of fires, rot, termites, chipping or cracking.
A bonus feature to choosing steel is that it is better for the environment: steel is a one hundred percent recyclable material and today’s modular steel fencing systems generate very little scrap during installation.
ColorBond has been a staple in Australia for 50 years, some key points about ColorBond are:

PermaSteel are so confident of the quality of each fence they manufacture, that each is backed with a full 10-year warranty covering all posts, rails and infill sheets.

Your residential fencing is a vital part of your home. It helps keep you safe, protects your pets and garden and can add a dash of design to complement your house.
If you are thinking of installing a new fence on your property, hiring a professional fencing contractor has many benefits that are worth the initial cost.
Here are our top 5 reasons to hire a fencing contractor.
A licensed and insured fencing contractor can offer professional advice on which fence will suit your individual needs and have the know-how to complete the job properly.
While DIY projects can be really fun and rewarding, there are some jobs that are very costly to do incorrectly.
We do not recommend installing your own fence if you are not properly trained. Not only may the fence have problems, but it could even be dangerous.
Although it may seem costly on initial installation, having a professional install your new fencing will decrease costs in the long run by decreasing the need for repairs and maintenance.
For example, a large issue that layman installers can run into is not having the correct property lines marked before building the fence.
If they install your new fence on your neighbour’s property or install it too close to your home by mistake, then you will need to remove it and start again.
A professionally installed fence, especially one that includes a warranty, can often increase the value of your home.
Completing a DIY or hiring someone who is not properly trained in the process, may result in a sub-par finished product that requires costly fixes.
Hiring a professional contractor, such as our team at Amazing Fencing, will give you the peace of mind that your completed fence is perfect.
If you’re in the process of renovating your Sydney property or just in need of a new fence, you’ve probably already started shopping around and have discovered that there is an extensive range of different fencing styles out there these days.
Some fencing options are timeless and some styles will come and go pretty quickly—to help you decide on the ideal fence for your property, the experts here at Amazing Fencing have put together a summary of some of our top fencing options in 2020.
A timeless classic that doesn’t seem to be going out of fashion any time soon is the timber fence. The reason why timber fencing is still a top choice in 2020 is because of the minimalistic touch it brings to any property type. This means that you can update your property as the years go by and your timber fence won’t ever look out of place.
Another great aspect of timber fencing is that it’s available in a huge range of styles. This includes lapped fencing, lapped and capped, paling fencing and even Colonial style fencing.
A timber fencing style that has become increasingly popular in Sydney recently, particularly with smaller spaces, is timber slat fencing and privacy screens. We often recommend timber slat screening to property owners who are seeking a modern and fresh aesthetic for their property.
Another welcome addition to any Sydney home or business is a steel fence. For many years, Australian property owners have opted for steel fencing options such as Colorbond fencing because of the outstanding level of durability, privacy and security they bring. Even better, steel fencing is another minimalistic option and will still be a suitable style for many years to come.
In 2020, darker fencing colours have been becoming increasingly popular. Steel fencing options such as Colorbond and PermaSteel are available in a range of colours, so you will be able to find an option to suit the desired look you’re wanting to achieve.
If you are trying to stick to a budget, we recommend opting for PermaSteel for your new steel fencing addition. PermaSteel brings many of the same benefits of a Colorbond steel fence but for a more budget-friendly price.
Is it time for a new fence at your place? Here at Amazing Fencing, our team of experts specialise in a wide range of fencing options including both timber and steel fences.

Do you want to ensure your property and family is protected from thieves or intruders? Having a high-quality security fence installed should be your priority. There are a range of different security fences available in varying styles and price ranges. Steel, timber or aluminium fencing are a few popular security fencing options for many Sydney property owners.
The specialists here at Amazing Fencing have been assisting our clients with their security fencing needs for many years now and we want to help more Sydney property owners understand how essential a security fence is.
Have a read below as we reveal some of the benefits of a security fence.
The first and the most obvious benefit of a security fence is that it’s going to help to improve the security measures of your property. Intruders are unpredictable and you never know what property they’re going to target. So it’s essential that you do whatever you can to make sure your property is secure and protected.
By having a security fence installed, you get the peace of mind that a new level of protection for your home and family has been provided. Intruders and thieves are more likely to be deterred from a property that has a security fence installed. Security fences are also beneficial when it comes to creating a safe and secure space for children and pets to play.
When investing in a good quality security fence, you will also create a private space for your family to enjoy. Steel and timber fences are top choices for many of our clients who are wanting to improve the privacy of their property. Many of our fences can be installed in various height options so that you can minimise the chance of any neighbours or passers-by peering into your front or backyard.
Thieves will often be tempted to break into a property because they’ve travelled past previously and something of value has possibly caught their eye. By preventing a thief from even seeing into your property, you eliminate the chance of them coming back for a better look when you’re not home.
Security fencing clearly comes with many benefits in terms of practicality. But did you know that security fences can also do wonders for your property in terms of its overall aesthetic? These days, security fences are available in a huge range of styles, sizes and colour options, so you can select a fence that is also going to complement the look of your property.
Steel fences such as Colorbond and PermaSteel are very popular among Australian property owners who are seeking improved security for their home. What’s great about these steel fencing types is that they are available in an extensive range of colour schemes and will be sure to bring a fresh and clean finish to any home or commercial property. Timber fencing is another option that is very versatile and also useful in terms of both security and aesthetic.

There is no avoiding the fact that over time, your fencing is going to start looking a little worse for wear. This is simply what happens with anything that’s left out in the elements!
Timber, steel or aluminium—all fencing types will deteriorate to some degree as the years go by.
By ensuring you properly maintain your fencing and by having any issues repaired when they come up can help to extend the life of your fence. How do you know when it’s best to just replace your fence entirely?
Read below as our team of experts reveal some of the telltale signs that your fence is beyond repair and due for a replacement.
If your property has recently been hit by a damaging storm, it could be possible your fence is beyond repair and it’s time for a replacement. Here in Australia, it’s not uncommon for properties to experience the full brunt of wild weather including hail and damaging winds. If your fence has been there for a while already, it could end up with significant damage including broken panels, leaning or even falling over completely.
Other accidents such as falling trees or vehicle accidents may also occur which could potentially result in significant damage to your fencing. We always recommend if you’ve experienced an incident like this to contact a fencing expert to access the damage and recommend whether a repair or replacement is your best bet.
When it comes to timber fencing, panels of the fence will usually start to become loose and sometimes they will even fall out as time goes by. This can sometimes be a quick fix and a repair will do the job. However, if you’re noticing this is starting to become a regular occurrence, it could be a sign that you’re better off having the entire fence replaced.
This could potentially be the more affordable option down the track rather than constantly paying for repairs. Broken and loose panels can also be an issue for steel fences! The experts at Amazing Fencing are available to inspect your fencing issues and recommend what we believe is your best option—repair or replacement.
If you notice your fence is starting to lean to one side, you should contact a professional as soon as possible. Not only are leaning fences an eyesore, but they can also be a big safety hazard. You don’t want your fence falling over completely and injuring someone!
Depending on what is causing the fence to lean and how significant the damage is, a repair could be possible. It’s usually more common that a leaning fence is a sign that a fence replacement is needed. Again, we recommend seeking the advice of a fencing professional to determine what your best option is.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we install a range of fencing solutions including timber, Colorbond steel and PermaSteel options.

Steel fencing has long been a top choice for homeowners and investors all over Australia. Here at Amazing Fencing, our team is regularly installing Colorbond and PermaSteel fences and we often recommend steel to our clients who are seeking a durable and stylish new fence.
Why is steel fencing still so popular after all this time? Read below as we uncover some of the many benefits of steel fencing and why you should consider it for your property.
One of the reasons steel fencing is so sought after is because of its highly durable design. A steel fence is built to last for many years and it will withstand a full range of conditions that get thrown its way.
This even includes the extreme weather that we experience here in Australia. If you’re seeking a fence that doesn’t require a great deal of maintenance and will stand the test of time, a steel fence is an easy solution.
Not only is a steel fence a practical choice for property owners across Australia, but it’s also a top choice for those wanting to refresh the look of their property. Many steel fencing products are available in a variety of colours and sizes, ensuring there is an option that will complement any property regardless of age or style.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we regularly recommend the Colorbond and PermaSteel ranges to those who are wanting to give the exterior of their property a facelift.
Due to the strong and sturdy design of a steel fence, you’ll be sure to improve the security measures as well as the privacy of your property. A steel fence is a simple way to deter intruders from any home or business.
Available in various sizing options, both Colorbond and PermaSteel fences are also ideal for creating a private outdoor area. Here at Amazing Fencing, our team of experts will be more than happy to help you find the best steel fence option to suit your requirements.
You might be thinking a new steel fence is outside of your price range. This isn’t necessarily true! There are many affordable steel fence options out there. Here at Amazing Fencing, we often recommend PermaSteel to those clients who are wanting to stick to a budget.
PermaSteel offers many of the same benefits of a Colorbond steel fence but comes at a much more affordable price.
Timber fencing has long been a welcome addition to Australian properties of all styles, sizes and ages. Here at Amazing Fencing, we are the specialists when it comes to timber fences and we are passionate about helping our clients find their ideal timber fencing solution.
If you have already started your research into timber fencing, you would be well aware that there are many different styles out there. So to help you decide which timber fence will be the best fit for your property, we’ve put together a summary to outline some of the most popular timber fencing styles.
Timber paling fencing is one of the most common forms of timber fencing. This type of fence is minimalist in appearance which makes it a suitable choice for all types of properties across Australia.
Ideal for boundary fencing, a timber paling fence is affordable, easy to install and when sourced from trusted timber suppliers and maintained properly, your timber paling fence will last for many years to come. We regularly recommend paling fences to those who are seeking a simple timber fencing choice that will provide security and privacy but won’t break the budget.
Lapped fencing is similar to pailing fencing due to its simplistic design. Here at Amazing Fencing, our lapped fencing options are perfect for properties old and new. Lapped fencing consists of two layers of overlapped timber palings—this minimal design makes it great for boundary fencing.
Similar to the lapped fencing option is lapped and capped fencing. The lapped and capped style is much like lapped fencing but the fence also has a paling along the top of the fence which acts as the capping. This creates a sturdier fence and also further adds to the overall appearance of the fence.
Colonial fencing has long been a popular choice for property owners who are wanting a traditional aesthetic for their home. Colonial fencing is a simple way to bring a decorative look to the exterior of your property and here at Amazing Fencing, our Colonial fencing is available in a range of styles and colour choices.
Some of these styles include decorative pickets and post tops. If you’re unsure of which style would best complement your property, our team of experts are always happy to assist.

The team at Amazing Fencing have been supplying and installing a complete range of timber fences for years now and we’d love to help you find your ideal timber fencing solution.

Timber fences have long been a top choice for property owners and renovators who want to achieve privacy, security and bring a touch of character to their home. Timber is also a simple choice when you require a sturdy and durable fence—when timber fences are cared for correctly, they can last for many years after installation.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we source all our timber from trusted suppliers and ensure it has been properly treated to ensure longevity. However, if your fence has been previously installed by another company or you would just like to ensure you’re maintaining it correctly, our team of fencing experts have put together a summary of our top tips for timber fence maintenance.
One of the most important maintenance tips is to ensure that you regularly clean your timber fence. This will help to prevent mould and dirt from building up over time. You can use a clean cloth to wipe down your fence—if water restrictions in your region permit, you can also hose your fence or use a pressure washer.
If you intend to repaint or restain your fence after it’s been cleaned, we recommend you wait until the timber has completely dried first. This may take up to 48 hours.
If you notice any basic damages require attention, be sure to have them repaired as soon as possible. This will prevent them from becoming worse and turning into more serious repair or replacement jobs. Some examples of minor timber fence damages you might experience from time to time include splitting, rotting and loose panels.
Your timber fence isn’t indestructible and basic wear and tear will occur over time—be mindful of this and ensure you regularly inspect your fence to see if any minor damages have appeared.
Staining your timber fence will give it a fresh look and will also work as a protective barrier against changing weather conditions including the harsh UV rays of the sun.
If you’re considering restaining your timber fence, we recommend doing it in the evening so that the stain isn’t faced with a day of harsh sun while it’s trying to set.
Get in contact with the team of experts at Amazing Fencing today. We specialise in a range of timber fencing options as well as steel fencing solutions including Colorbond and PermaSteel.
A stain is a top choice for many renovators because it doesn’t take away from the natural look of the timber—it instead gives the fence a fresh tint of colour. For more information on any of our fencing services or to arrange your free quote—get in touch with the team today.
