Fencing — Thebarton 5031
Fencing for Thebarton Properties, SA 5031
For a Thebarton address, fencing starts with the site rather than the product. Thebarton is roughly 3 km north-west of the city, and what the ground and the access look like there decide the scope before anything is priced. The ground at Thebarton is recorded as filled and worked ground over the inner-west plain, variable underfoot, and the terrain as essentially flat former industrial and residential ground.
How it goes
The build sequence at Thebarton
Every job follows the same sequence, and the sequence is what makes the finished work hold up. Timber paling and capped picket fences, Colorbond, aluminium and timber slat screens, and gates that hang true and keep working. Posts are set in concrete at depths matched to fence height and the ground, and old fencing is removed and disposed of.
01
The old fence comes down and the materials are carted off
02
String lines go up and post positions are marked at even centres
03
Post holes are bored to depth along the line
04
Posts are set in concrete, plumbed and braced
05
Rails and cladding are fixed straight and level
06
Capping and gates go on and the gate is checked for swing
What Thebarton is built on
What the Thebarton site visit looks at
Thebarton is 3 km north-west of the Adelaide CBD and inside the 60 km service area. The ground is recorded as filled and worked ground over the inner-west plain, variable underfoot, with essentially flat former industrial and residential ground, so what is in the post line and how deep the posts have to go decide whether the fence stays straight. Levels, access and the condition of what is already there are recorded so the quote reflects the real job.

02
Panels that have racked out of square on a slope
03
A boundary where the two sides cannot agree on height or cost

Old fencing that was never taken away and disposed of
Why AOI
Scope and sequence, not guesswork
Fencing at Thebarton is priced from a written scope that lists what is included before anything is cut, dug or poured. The same team that scopes the work builds it, so the plan that is approved is the plan that gets built.

Questions from Thebarton
Fencing in Thebarton — FAQs
Do you cover Thebarton for fencing?
Thebarton 5031 is covered, about 3 km north-west of the CBD, inside the 60 km service area. Quoting follows a visit to the property.
What height can a fence be?
We construct to the no-approval height set by council, reviewing anything taller or in a character area first. Height gets fixed at the quoting stage.
How is fencing priced?
Cost runs from the linear metre, then height and style because a standard run and a tall feature fence differ in material and labour. Ground in the post line and old-fence removal are separate lines.
How do shared fence costs work in South Australia?
South Australian adjoining owners normally split the cost of a sufficient dividing fence. A fence more expensive than sufficient is funded by whoever wants it. We prepare itemised quotes for the statutory notice.
