Fencing project completed by Pristine Exteriors in West Auckland

Fence builders, West Auckland

Boundary fences, privacy screening, pool fencing, gates and full replacements, built in treated timber.

What is covered

A fence is only as good as its posts

In West Auckland's heavy clay, shallow post holes are why fences lean by the second winter. Posts go in to structural depth, anchored in high strength concrete, with H4 treated timber below ground, H3.2 rails above it and premium paling profiles on top.

Straight lines on ground that is not straight

Sloping sections are the usual reason a fence looks wrong. Alignment and levels get set before the first paling goes on, and on steep sites the fence can be combined with a timber retaining wall to hold the level and win back usable yard.

From $150 per linear metre. Indicative and excluding GST. The fixed price comes after an on site measure. See full pricing.

**The challenge.** An old, dilapidated boundary line that offered zero privacy from neighbors, compromised property security, and lowered the home’s street appeal.

**Our solution.** Cleared and removed the old boundary structure. Constructed a premium, architecturally designed vertical-slat Kwila timber fence with precision spacing, built over a rock-solid structural post-and-rail foundation.

**The result.** A striking, high-end boundary feature that provides complete local privacy, secures the section, and beautifully complements the home’s modern landscaping.

**The challenge.** A dangerous, failing legacy boundary fence containing hazardous materials (asbestos) that was collapsing due to unchecked soil erosion and heavy bush water runoff.

**Our solution.** Safely dismantled and disposed of the hazardous old fence lines. Engineered a low 300mm timber retaining wall along the baseline to manage soil erosion and ground-water pathing, then erected a secure, 2-metre timber privacy fence directly over it.

**The result.** A fully stabilized boundary line that controls water runoff, protects the soil, and delivers exceptional long-term structural security and backyard privacy.

**The challenge.** A dilapidated, 1.5m timber fence that was rotting, leaning, and falling apart in places. The low height offered minimal privacy from neighbors, leaving the backyard feeling exposed and unkempt.

**Our solution.** The Pristine Exteriors Ltd team removed the decaying structure and installed a brand-new, robust 1.8m timber boundary fence across the Avondale property. Built using durable H3 and H4 treated timber to withstand local weather conditions, we set heavy-duty 100mm x 100mm square posts deep into concrete to guarantee complete structural stability and clean, straight lines along the property line.

**The result.** Complete privacy, security, and peace of mind. The upgraded 1.8m height effectively screens out neighboring properties, dramatically tidying up the backyard and turning it into a private, clean outdoor living space.

Common questions

How high can I build without consent?

Under Auckland Council rules you can generally build a residential fence up to 2 metres without a building consent. Pool fencing and front road boundary walls have their own rules.

Who pays for a shared boundary fence?

Under the Fencing Act 1978 neighbours generally share the cost of an adequate boundary fence equally. We can give you a clear written quote to hand to your neighbour so that conversation is simple.

Do you remove the old fence?

Yes. Removal and disposal of the existing fence can be included in the job.
