    “Satwinder and his team were very accommodating of the urgent time frames required for a fence to be built. They were responsive, friendly and kept me updated around progress, payments and options throughout the process. They went above and beyond to ensure the work was conpleted in the agreed time frame and according to budget. Would (and have already) recommend them to anyone who are in need of their services!”

    Fencing Services in Wellington

    From new fence installation to repairs, painting and gates — one point of contact for your whole project.

    Timber Fencing New Zealand
    Timber Fencing

    We build timber fences for private backyards, shared boundaries and street frontages. Paling and slatted designs give Wellington homes anything from full screening to a lighter, more open finish.

    Aluminium Fencing New Zealand
    Aluminium Fencing

    Powder-coated aluminium gives you a tidy boundary without hiding the garden. We fit panels to sloping Wellington sections, with an open design that lets light through.

    Pool Fencing New Zealand
    Pool Fencing

    We install pool barriers with self-closing, self-latching gates. Open panels keep the swimming area visible, with the fence fitted to changes in level on your Wellington section.

    PVC & Vinyl Fencing New Zealand
    PVC & Vinyl Fencing

    PVC fencing gives a side boundary or front garden a clean, consistent finish without regular repainting. We install panel fencing for Wellington homeowners wanting less timber upkeep.

    Steel / Metal Fencing New Zealand
    Steel / Metal Fencing

    Steel fencing provides a strong boundary for driveways and working yards. Around the harbour and the south coast we use stainless fixings, because salt gets into the joints long before it troubles the panel.

    Chain Link Fencing New Zealand
    Chain Link Fencing

    Chain link encloses yards and longer boundaries while letting wind and light through. Its open mesh suits exposed Wellington sites where a solid privacy fence isn't needed.

    Fence Repairs New Zealand
    Fence Repairs

    We repair storm-damaged fencing, loose posts and broken rails. Where the rest of your Wellington fence is sound, replacing the failed section can avoid starting again along the whole boundary.

    Fence Painting & Staining New Zealand
    Fence Painting & Staining

    We paint and stain timber fences, from street frontages to boundaries beside steep paths. Cleaning and surface preparation give the new coating a sound base, refreshing the fence's appearance.

    Garden Fencing New Zealand
    Garden Fencing

    Slatted screens, low pickets and trellis give Wellington gardens privacy where it's needed. A screen beside the deck can separate your seating area while leaving the remaining garden open.

    Gates for Fences New Zealand
    Gates for Fences

    We fit side and driveway gates as part of the fence. On a sloping Wellington drive we set the clearance so the gate still swings clear at the low end.

    Common Questions About Fencing in Wellington

    Wellington is known for exposed and windy properties, so the design and construction of a fence can be just as important as the material itself. Timber, aluminium, steel and other fencing options can all be suitable, but the fence needs to be planned around the property's exposure, layout, height and ground conditions. A fence on an exposed hillside or open section may have different requirements from one sheltered by neighbouring buildings. Real Fencing can help you choose a fencing solution that balances privacy, appearance and durability for your particular property. Rather than simply selecting a fence from a standard range, we consider the site and how the fence will be used before recommending an option. If you need fencing for a windy Wellington property, Consult or Contact Real Fencing to discuss your requirements.

    Yes. A sloping section does not necessarily prevent you from installing a new fence, but it can affect the way the fence is designed and installed. Wellington has many properties with sloping or uneven sections, and the fence may need to follow the natural gradient, be stepped between posts, or use a layout that works with changes in ground level. Careful planning is particularly important for long boundary runs and difficult-to-access areas. Real Fencing can assess the site and determine a practical approach for the terrain, whether you're looking for timber fencing, aluminium fencing, PVC and vinyl fencing, steel fencing or chain link fencing. Get A Quote for your Wellington property and we can discuss the most suitable approach for your section.

    Under the Building Act, most fences up to 2.5 m high don't need a building consent. Height limits at the road boundary and in some zones are set by the Wellington City Council District Plan, and swimming-pool barriers always need consent and inspection. We'll tell you what applies to your section when we quote. See the Wellington City Council website and the MBIE building consent exemptions guide.

    Pool barriers must be at least 1.2 m high with self-closing, self-latching gates, and they need a building consent and a council inspection every three years. We build to the Building Code barrier requirements and can arrange the inspection paperwork.

    A typical 30–40 m boundary fence takes two to three days on site once we start. Longer runs, retaining or gates add time. We confirm your start date when you accept the quote, and it's usually within a few weeks depending on the season.

    Under the Fencing Act 1978, neighbours normally share the cost of an adequate boundary fence equally. You need to give your neighbour written notice with the proposed fence and cost before work starts. We'll give you a quote you can share with them, and we can build once you've agreed.

    The Real Fencing team in Wellington

    Fencing in Wellington is mostly about wind and hills. Many sites sit in high or very high wind zones, so we space posts closer, set them deeper in concrete and often recommend slatted or gapped designs that let the wind through rather than a solid panel that catches it. Steep sections in suburbs like Brooklyn, Karori and Wadestown usually need a stepped or raked fence that follows the ground, and narrow access means materials are often carried in by hand. On the south coast and around Eastbourne and Seatoun, salt air means galvanised or stainless fixings and marine-grade aluminium where the budget allows.
