Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Jun 15, 2024 8:47 am Hi guys, first time building a house. I am building in Brisbane QLD, Anstead/bellbowrie/moggill area. Looking at around 80m worth of boundary fencing. I dont have high expectation, so the some simple wooden fencing for the land boundary will be good enough. Do guys have a ballpark figure for me? I am trying to put together an estimated budget for my build. Thanks! Re: Rough price guide for boundary fencing 2Jun 17, 2024 2:24 pm Well, not sure of 80m, but to give you an idea. For 1.8m high colourbond around 72m worth; Our right hand side fence: 26.88m - which also included 200mm treated pine sleepers under fence and 5 posts core drilled into sandstone retaining wall... plus also a 3.198m return with gate. - $5,050 inc.

One post into sandstone block. This also includes a gate and another 1.5m of return fencing. - $5,630 inc. GST So for 72m of fencing, we are at around $13,000.. take away the two gates and the returns, id say maybe $10-11,000 or so. And take into account the coredrilling, be heaper without core-drilling into sandstone. EDIT: i did get other quotes, the other two were 16k and 17k, luckily the third came back cheaper, and the third even included extra sleepers.. so stoked with the quote. This is colourbond, so be even cheaper if you dont go colourbond i assume. They should be run in the frame, when run on the outside the pipes breach the cavity clearance. Most times the brickies mortar will drop on them and dry creating a… 1 980 Thanks, great points. I am hoping that having my garage wall being the only retaining wall will compensate for that risk.
