There are many privacy fencing options out there which are affordable, functional and stylish.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we’ve been assisting Australian property owners to choose the ideal privacy fence for many years now—so we’ve decided to put together a summary of a few of our top recommendations when it comes to the best privacy fences for backyards.
Timber fencing is one of the most popular options for backyard privacy. What’s great about timber fencing is that it’s easily customisable and available in a wide variety of styles to suit your particular needs and aesthetic preferences.
Some of the most popular timber fencing styles include:
Timber fencing can be customised to further fulfil your privacy needs, with many fences being constructed to specified heights. Here at Amazing Fencing, our timber fences can be built up to 2.4 metres high—making them the ideal backyard privacy fence.
Sometimes different councils will have different restrictions when it comes to fence heights—our experts will always ensure your new fence is compliant.
If you are searching for a fence that will also fit within a strict budget, timber is the right choice for you because it’s one of the most affordable fencing options on the market.
Another fencing option that we regularly recommend to clients who are wanting to achieve a more private space in their backyard is steel fencing.
Steel fencing is a top choice because it’s tough, durable and will last for many years to come after the initial installation.
Steel fencing has been a backyard favourite for Australian homeowners for many years. Household names like Colorbond are synonymous with quality and are a popular choice for backyard privacy fences.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we also recommend PermaSteel to those clients wanting to achieve many of the same benefits of Colorbond but at a more affordable price.

Are you searching for a new fence that will suit both your needs and budget?
Before you lock in a fencing contractor to take the job on, it’s important to first think about a few important considerations.
By spending the time now weighing up your options and doing your research, you can make sure you don’t end up with a fence that isn’t quite right and avoid spending more money down the track.
Have a read of our top tips below to find out what we recommend you consider before locking in your new fence installation.
We suggest you conduct some thorough research into the different fencing styles available or discuss your needs with one of our helpful fencing professionals. This is to ensure you pick the best possible match for your exact requirements. It’s also a way to help you find a fence that will comfortably fit within your budget.
For example, do you have the money to maintain a fence that will require regular upkeep? Or do you just want a low-maintenance fence? Have a read of our blog from last week on low-maintenance fencing styles to learn more about this.
Steel fencing is often a top choice for Australian property owners, but it doesn’t seem to suit every person’s budget. Fortunately, there’s a variety of steel fencing options available these days that provide the same benefits of brands like Colorbond, but at a much more budget-friendly price.
One popular example of this is PermaSteel—an affordable steel fencing solution with the same quality manufacturing. If you don’t shop around and don’t do your research, you probably won’t find these kinds of affordable alternatives.
To help ensure you decide on the best fence to suit your needs, it’s important to consider exactly why you need a new fence to start with. These are all important considerations that will help you rule out fencing styles that won’t be the right fit for your needs.
Some common reasons you might be in the market for a new fence include:
Depending on where in Australia you live, there will be some kind of council regulations in place when it comes to the installation of new fencing. It’s very important that you do your research into this before having your new fence installed—this can save you a lot of stress down the track! Experienced fencing contractors, like the team here at Amazing Fencing, will be up to date on the latest regulations and will be able to provide you with accurate and reliable advice.

A Colorbond fence is a welcome addition to properties of all styles and ages. When you invest in Colorbond, you’ll bring extra security and added privacy to your home—Colorbond will also help improve the overall look of your property and increase market value.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we regularly install a range of Colorbond fencing solutions. Our clients often ask us the best ways to clean and maintain their new Colorbond fence to keep it looking great and to ensure it lasts. This is why we’ve decided to create a summary outlining the best ways to maintain a Colorbond fence.
Regular cleaning of your Colorbond fence will help to prevent the build-up of dirt, cobwebs, mould or other debris. When it comes to stubborn stains, we suggest that you clean your fence with a mild solution of pure soap or a mild kitchen detergent. Use a cloth or sponge to clean any problem areas and then thoroughly rinse away the soap with clean water. If you have a pool near your fence, it’s also important to make sure it’s regularly cleaned of any pool splashes.
The soil will sometimes build up around the bottom of your fence—over time this can result in mould or fungus formation and possibly even corrosion issues. Be sure to keep an eye on the bottom of your fence to make sure soil doesn’t build up too much and get out of hand.
Try to avoid spraying fertilisers on your Colorbond fence whilst you’re maintaining your garden. Some fertilisers will contain chemicals that can cause your fence to corrode. If you do accidentally spray your fence with fertiliser, be sure to wash it away as soon as you notice. If the water restrictions in your region permit, it’s a good idea to give your Colorbond fence a hose down every few months. This is particularly important in coastal areas where there is marine salt spray.
If your Colorbond fence is the target of vandals and you find it’s been graffitied, ensure you have this removed as soon as possible. There are graffiti cleaners available to purchase, but it’s best to contact a fencing specialist first before you use anything on your Colorbond fence. This will help make sure you don’t further damage the paintwork.
Colorbond fences are designed and installed to be extremely strong and durable. However, it’s still advised that you don’t lean large and heavy objects against your Colorbond fence. This may result in scratches and could cause your fence to lean.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we install a variety of Colorbond fencing solutions. We also supply and install other steel options including PermaSteel.
PermaSteel provides many of the same benefits of Colorbond fencing, but it comes with a more affordable price tag.
If steel fencing isn’t for you, take a look at our extensive range of timber fencing solutions.

Your new timber fence won’t always look as pristine as it did the day you had it installed. Some people like the weathered look, while others prefer their fence looking new and polished. Either way, repairs will most likely be necessary at some point. Over time, factors such as weather conditions, rotting, termites or general wear and tear are likely to have an impact on your fence.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we often have property owners asking us for help when it comes to their timber fencing issues and whether they should opt for a repair job or a complete replacement.
Have a read below as we investigate the most common timber fence issues and how to tell if you should repair or replace.
If the materials used for a timber fence haven’t been treated correctly, they’ll become susceptible to rotting. At Amazing Fencing, all the timber we use has been sourced from trusted suppliers and is properly treated to avoid issues with rotting. However, if your timber fence was installed by another company who didn’t treat the timber before installation, you could be at risk of dealing with a rotting fence.
If you detect the rotting early enough, you may not require a complete fence replacement. If the rotting hasn’t been detected soon enough and more than one-quarter of the fencing appears to be damaged, it’s best to consider replacing the fence completely.
Aging is, unfortunately, a fact of life—it even happens to your once new and fresh timber fence!
When your timber fence is out in the elements day after day, it’s going to eventually start showing signs of wear and tear. This could be in the form of wobbly posts, loose panels and it may start to look old and faded in appearance.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we construct high-quality timber fences that are designed to last for many years after installation. If your property is older and the timber fence was previously installed, you might be starting to notice some signs of old age. If the fence is more than 20 years old, it’s probably time for a replacement.
If you’re still not sure, contact a fencing specialist like the Amazing Fencing team and we can provide you with reliable advice on whether your fence requires repair or replacement.
These days, most timber fences will be specially treated to prevent the risk of a termite infestation. If in the unlikely event that you discover termites, we suggest you act quickly to avoid further damage occurring.
If detected early enough, you will need to have your fencing properly inspected and treated to ensure the termites are gone and won’t be returning. Complete termite inspections and treatments can, however, be costly, so it may be in your best interest to have a new fence installed.

Don’t keep putting it off because you think it will end up being too expensive—there are many affordable and high-quality options out there
When it comes to your new fencing, there’s an extensive range of solutions that will complement your property and won’t leave your pockets empty.
One of the most affordable fencing options that we regularly recommend to our clients trying to cut costs is timber fencing. A timber fence is a timeless addition and will suit properties of all styles. Timber fencing can be easily customised to suit your preferences—this includes both the size and style.
If you’re searching for a traditional finish, a picket fence is often a top choice. If you’re wanting a basic boundary fence that will blend seamlessly with your property, a pailing fence or a lapped fence are both great choices.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we source our timber from trusted suppliers and we’re confident that it will last for many years to come.
This will end up saving you money down the track when you won’t regularly need your fence maintained or replaced.
You might think it isn’t possible to have a new steel fence installed without it going over the budget. This doesn’t have to be the case—there are many affordable steel fencing alternatives out there that still provide the same quality as the more expensive options.
One example that we install here at Amazing Fencing is PermaSteel.
The great thing about PermaSteel is that it brings many of the benefits that you’ll get from a Colorbond Steel fence but with a more budget-friendly price tag.
PermaSteel is available in a range of colours and it’s a simple solution when you’re wanting to bring both security and privacy to your property. We regularly recommend PermaSteel to clients seeking a highly durable fence that will still stay within budget.
Your renovation doesn’t have to be as expensive as you might think. By shopping around and finding more affordable alternatives, you can refresh your home for a realistic price.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we regularly work alongside property owners who are renovating their homes and we’re always more than happy to help them find the best fencing product to suit their needs and budget.
The addition of a retaining wall will help to improve both the functionality and the overall appearance of your property.
Retaining walls have long been recommended by landscaping professionals when it comes to dealing with sloped and uneven terrain. Today, our team still believes that retaining walls are a top choice for Australian property owners.
Here at Amazing Fencing, we’ve been installing retaining walls for many years now—our team of experts have put together a summary of some of the many benefits of retaining walls.
One of the top benefits of a retaining wall is that it will provide structural support and hold soil in place, particularly for land that is especially uneven or sloped. You might think that your sloped land is unusable—but this doesn’t have to be the case! By installing a retaining wall, you’ll level out flat areas of your land and make it functional—perfect for planting and decorating.
A retaining wall will help to prevent soil corrosion, particularly if there aren’t many trees or shrubs present within your landscape which generally help to hold the soil in place.
Some property owners will also opt for a retaining wall as a means of flood control as they help to improve the flow of water and drainage when it rains.
As discussed above, retaining walls are great when it comes to improving the functionality of your outdoor space. A bonus of a retaining wall is that it will also help to improve the look of your property—this will likely lead to an increase in market value.
If your front or backyard is sloped, it doesn’t have to be an eyesore and a big waste of space—the installation of a retaining wall is the perfect solution to make good use of your land and create a neat and tidy space.
Regardless of the age and style of your property, there will be a retaining wall option out there that will complement your home perfectly. Retaining walls can be installed in a range of styles and materials including timber and concrete options. At Amazing Fencing, we’ve assisted countless clients find the perfect retaining wall to suit their property, needs and budget.
Here at Amazing Fencing, our installation team have been assisting Australian property owners with their retaining walls for many years.
We’re available to provide you with ideas and solutions for making the most out of your outdoor space.

Timber slat screening is known for bringing a modern and fresh look to any property and is a simple way to create a clean and minimalist feel.
