What we do

Expanse Fencing builds residential fences across Melbourne, mostly timber paling, plus Colorbond, picket, aluminium and gates. We are a registered building practitioner (CDB-U 67771) and hardwood posts are our standard.

Customers come to us through our website, our free online instant estimate, letterbox flyers and referrals. We do the on-site measure and written quote, deal with neighbours and any permits, order the materials and book the job. Then we hand it to an installer we trust with everything needed to build it right first time.

What you get working with us

Steady fencing work

We find the customers, measure every job, write the quote, and sort the neighbour and permit paperwork. You turn up and build.

A fixed price per job

Every job comes as a clear work order with a fixed price, the scope, the materials and the access notes. Accept it or decline it, your call.

Paid every Friday

Submit your invoice in the portal once the job is signed off and it goes into our weekly Friday pay run. You can track it the whole way.

Everything on your phone

Work orders, site details, SWMS sign on, ITP checklists, photos and invoices all live in our subcontractor portal.

Your business stays yours

No lock in and no exclusivity. Keep your own customers and your own name. A cash bonus for jobs that come from flyers you drop.

Materials sorted

Materials are ordered and delivered to site as the work order says, so you are not chasing suppliers between jobs.

What we expect from our installers

The short version of our subcontractor agreement and site induction. You will see the full documents before you sign anything.

Your own business

An ABN, your own tax invoices, and you look after your own tax, super and any workers you bring.

Public liability of 10 million dollars

In your business name, with a current certificate of currency on file before your first job and at every renewal.

WorkCover where the law needs it

If you pay wages to anyone, including family or casual helpers, you need your own WorkSafe Victoria policy.

A white card for everyone on site

Every person you bring holds a current construction induction card, plus a ticket for any plant they run.

Your own gear

Vehicle, trailer, tools, PPE and consumables, kept safe, maintained and tested and tagged. No need to own a post hole borer: hire one when a job needs it, or dig by hand if you prefer.

Built to our standard

Hardwood posts as standard, set out right, posts plumb and concreted to depth, and the installation and completion checklists ticked with photos.

Safety every day

Sign on to the job SWMS each morning, check the Before You Dig plans before digging, stop for suspected asbestos, and report any incident or near miss the same day.

Good with customers

On time, courteous and respectful of the property and the neighbours. Customer details are for the job only, never for your own work.

A clean finish

Site swept with a magnet, waste to the right tips with the dockets kept, and no offcuts or spoil left behind.

Stand behind your work

If something you built fails a check or a defect turns up, you come back and fix it promptly.
