Housing Estate Fence
Complete your new home with a Housing Estate Fence.
If you’ve recently moved into a new home, securing your property with a housing fence is essential. Often, builders and developers do not include front yard fencing, leaving you and your neighbors to coordinate the installation. Why not take advantage of a group approach to ensure a uniform and cost-effective solution? At Jim’s Fencing, we specialize in housing estate fencing, offering expert advice and premium installation services.
What are the benefits of a neighbourhood fencing style?
A unique modern fence is the perfect finishing touch for a new modern home, or the ideal accent to complete a renovation. Choosing a modern feature fence makes your new build stand out, and with a wide range of options to choose from, you have plenty of creative freedom too!
By working with your neighbours as a group, you will often be able to negotiate a discounted rate for residents of your development with your fencing contractor. If multiple homeowners are using the same contractor to fence their homes, you’re sure to get great value on your boundary fencing.
When one homeowner chooses a brick wall with slat fencing while the others choose tubular fencing, it can create a look that clashes.
It’s better to work as a group and engage a professional fencing contractor like Jim’s Fencing. We can recommend a fencing style that suits the architectural style of your residential estate.
A unified style makes for an eye-catching and fashionable look for the entire street, which can even increase the value of your home.
Not only that, but coordinating your fencing with your neighbours can give everyone a sizable cost saving during the installation process.
How to organise Fence installation on new Housing Estates
Every housing estate, council and state will have different guidelines on how to go about installing a new fence. Most neighbours are very considerate and will make the process very smooth. The easiest way to navigate shared fencing dilemmas is to keep channels of communication open.
Call your estate’s sales office
Start by calling your estate’s sales office, management team, or your local council to get contact details for your neighbours – this is especially important if your homes are in different stages of construction and the owners aren’t on-site yet.
Communicate with your neighbours
You need to maintain communication with your neighbours and give them the chance to voice their perspective. Some neighbours won’t mind what you do and are happy to pay their share once the fence is built. Others will want an active role in the process, so be prepared to listen and come to a decision that suits everyone.
After gaining some direction on fencing styles and options, the next step is to obtain quotes from a local fencing contractor like Jim’s Fencing. After having the opportunity to evaluate the quotes, you can then move forward with new fence installation on your estate.
Most neighbours are going to be pleasant and civil, but at the end of the day, they are required to pay an equal share for a sufficient boundary fence. If your neighbours make the process difficult, a fencing order can be issued by the court as a last resort. However, it’s always better to come to a happy agreement together – after all, these are the neighbours you’re going to have for the foreseeable future!

Who pays for the cost of Fencing on new Estates
The new owner is almost always responsible for the cost of installing a fence on a new estate. And because fences are shared, fencing costs are shared too.
The team at Jim’s Fencing is experienced in all things estate fencing, including drawing up quotes and arranging for neighbourhood fence installation. If you need advice or want to get the ball rolling, talk to someone from our friendly team.
From new fence installation to repairs, you are usually splitting those costs with your neighbours who share that fence line. That means if you share boundaries with two of your neighbours, any costs for the property’s fence are going to be divided three ways.
The law states that when a fence needs to be built, neighbours that share boundaries have to contribute equally for a fence to be built to the minimum standard. However that doesn’t mean that if your neighbour wants a fancy or elaborate fence that you are going to be stuck with a bigger bill.
Legally, you are only required to pay for half of what is considered to be a standard fence for your estate. However, in most cases, neighbours can come to a happy agreement about what kind of fence they’d like and how much to spend on it.
