Springvale, in the City of Greater Dandenong, is a busy, diverse suburb of post-war family homes, rear units and townhouses, with Springvale Road and the station at its centre. Original fences on the older blocks are often well past their working life, and subdivisions have added new dividing fences between dwellings. Solid full-height paling is a common request for privacy and security. We work across Springvale and the neighbouring areas of Clayton, Keysborough, Dandenong and Clarinda.
Much of Springvale was developed in the post-war decades, on regular suburban blocks with brick veneer and weatherboard homes. Original fences, and the replacements put in since, are commonly at or past their useful life.
Springvale has plenty of rear units and block subdivisions. A new rear dwelling usually means a new dividing fence, and the old boundary fences beside it are best replaced at the same time. Where a fence sits on common property, the owners corporation decides.
On busier streets, owners often ask for solid full-height paling, set in concrete, for privacy and security. Gates are quoted at the measure, including pedestrian gates in a matching timber.
Springvale is in the City of Greater Dandenong. Council’s building permit page lists the main triggers: a masonry front fence over 1.2m, other front fences over 1.5m in certain zones, fences over 1m within 9m of a street intersection, and side or boundary fences over 2m. Council also notes that a planning zone can require a planning permit even where no building permit is needed, so check the zone for your lot.
Read the council’s own page before you design: City of Greater Dandenong fencing information. You can also look up your address, zone and any overlays with a free VicPlan property report. Rules change and every lot is different, so please check with council before you build. We flag height, corner and overlay questions at the on-site measure.
Sharing the cost with your neighbour. Under the Fences Act 1968, owners generally share the cost of a sufficient dividing fence equally, and you start by giving your neighbour a Fencing Notice (our free Fencing Notice generator does this). On unit sites with several owners, the question is often who owns the fence. If it is on common property, the owners corporation decides; between separate titles, the usual Fences Act cost split applies.
Springvale is roughly 9 km from our Heatherton base, roughly a 15 to 20 minute drive depending on traffic. We are based in Heatherton (we do not run a shopfront), and service Springvale as part of our wider run across Bayside and south east Melbourne.
Springvale is in the City of Greater Dandenong. Its building permit page explains when a fence needs a permit, and it is worth checking your zone too.
We can quote one side or a whole boundary. When two neighbours share the cost, one job is usually simplest because the fence is built once, to one standard, in one visit. The Fencing Notice tool helps you start that conversation.
A 1.8m or 2.1m lapped and capped paling fence is the most common. It has no gaps and hides the whole yard. Remember a side fence within 3m of the front counts as a front fence, so the taller height may not apply right up to the street.
Old fence removal can be included in the written quote, and we confirm it at the free on-site measure so you can see it as its own item.
