Best fencing contractors in Broome (2026)
Table of Contents
These are the best-rated fencing contractors working Broome and the Kimberley coast, from Cable Beach and Old Broome through the CBD, Roebuck, Bilingurr and Djugun. They’re ranked on real Google reviews, not on who paid us. Broome is genuinely a small, remote market: only a handful of businesses do dedicated fencing work this far north, and most of them are steel fabricators who also fence rather than fencing-only specialists. We’re upfront about that rather than padding the list. What follows is what fencing actually costs up here in 2026, why the cyclone season and termite pressure change the job, the warning signs of a dodgy quote, and a checklist to run before you pay a deposit.

- Google reviews do the ranking. We start with every fencer’s live Google star rating and the number of reviews behind it, pulled fresh from Google Maps.
- A genuinely small remote market, and we’ve said so. Only three operators cleared our rating and review bar in Broome, right at the floor we’ll publish. We haven’t padded the list with a business that doesn’t clear it, and we won’t pretend this is a deep market when it isn’t.
- Rating, weighted by volume. All three sit on a perfect 5.0, so review count breaks the tie, Broome steel solutions and fabricate’s four reviews edge out the two others’ two each.
- Based in and working Broome, verified on the map. We checked each operator’s street address against the Broome townsite.
- Supply stores and temp-fence hire left off. A building supply retailer and a temporary-fencing business surfaced in our searches but don’t install permanent residential fencing.
- Paid spots are labelled, and never jump the queue. When a business pays for a “Featured” spot it’s marked as such. The review-based order below does not change to favour a payer. Right now, no spots are sold.
Broome steel solutions and fabricate
A perfect 5.0 across 4 reviews, the deepest record of the three genuine operators we found in Broome. Based locally, they combine general steel fabrication with fencing work, useful in a remote town where a single trade often can’t support a fencing-only business.

A note on the order: with all three sitting on a perfect 5.0, review count does the tie-breaking, which is why Broome steel solutions and fabricate edges the other two. This is a genuinely small market, three operators is the floor we’ll publish, and that’s exactly what Broome has right now. Get two or three fixed-price quotes on the same scope regardless of who you call, there simply isn’t a deep bench here to fall back on if the first job goes wrong.
What fencing actually costs in Broome (2026)
Nobody likes ringing a fencer blind on price. These are honest ballpark ranges for the common jobs, GST included. They’re a guide to keep you from being overcharged, not a quote, and prices in Broome run higher than Perth or even Bunbury on most jobs, largely down to freight. Materials for a remote Kimberley job have to travel a long way, and that shows up on the invoice. Broome sits in a cyclone-prone part of WA, so fencing here often needs cyclone-rated fixings and bracing that a standard Perth quote wouldn’t include, and the Kimberley’s termite pressure makes steel and Colorbond the sensible default over untreated timber.
| Job | Typical Broome range | What pushes it up |
|---|---|---|
| Colorbond boundary fence, standard 1.8m (supply & install, per m) | $110-$180 / m | Freight to Broome, cyclone-rated fixings and bracing, access, removal of the old fence |
| Steel or garrison fence, cyclone-rated (per m) | $160-$300 / m | Gauge, bracing spec, height, gates, wind-rating requirements |
| Aluminium or steel pool fence (per m) | $220-$400 / m | Style, height, corrosion protection, gates and latches, freight |
| Single steel or Colorbond gate (supply & install) | $400-$900 | Width, frame, hardware, cyclone bracing, freight |
| Removal & disposal of old fence (per m) | $25-$55 / m | Fence type, footings to dig out, access, limited local tip options |
The biggest Broome-specific factor is freight and cyclone rating. Everything costs more to land in the Kimberley than it does in Perth, and if your fence needs to genuinely withstand a cyclone rather than just look the part, the bracing and fixings specification matters more than the material choice. Ask any fencer here directly whether their standard fence spec is cyclone-rated for Broome’s wind zone, and whether steel is being used specifically because termites will eventually get to untreated timber.
Don’t get ripped off: red flags
- No written quote that spells out the fence. A proper fencing quote states the length in metres, the height, the material and gauge, the post spacing, the footing depth and the price. Get the detail in writing.
- No mention of cyclone rating. Broome sits in a cyclone-prone wind zone. A fencer who quotes a standard fence spec without mentioning bracing or fixings suited to that zone may be underspeccing the job.
- Untreated timber in a termite zone. The Kimberley has serious termite pressure. A fencer pushing untreated timber to save money is setting you up for an early rebuild. Steel or Colorbond is the safer long-term pick here.
- Cash-only, no ABN, no insurance. A fencer with no ABN, no public liability insurance and a cash-only push is a fencer with no accountability if the job goes wrong or someone gets hurt on your property. Ask for the ABN and insurance.
- A big deposit up front. Given freight lead times, some deposit for materials is more reasonable in Broome than elsewhere, but get a clear breakdown of what the deposit covers and confirm a realistic delivery and install date before you pay it.
Before you hire: quick checklist
- ABN and public liability insurance. Confirm the fencer has a current ABN and public liability cover before any work starts.
- Written quote with the detail. Get the length in metres, the height, the material and gauge, the post spacing, the footing depth, any gates and the price all in writing before you pay a deposit.
- Cyclone rating confirmed. Ask specifically whether the fence and gate hardware are specced for Broome’s cyclone wind zone, not just a standard southern-WA fence.
- Material suited to termite pressure. Confirm steel, Colorbond or properly treated material, not untreated timber, given the Kimberley’s termite activity.
- Freight and lead time discussed. Ask how long materials will take to land in Broome and build that into your expectations before agreeing to a start date.
- Recent, specific reviews and references. With so few operators in town, ask for a local job you can actually go and look at.
Frequently asked
How did you rank these fencing contractors?
By their live Google star rating and the number of reviews behind it, pulled from Google Maps. All three genuine Broome operators sit on a perfect 5.0, so review count breaks the tie. Only three operators cleared our bar in this genuinely small remote market, and we’ve published all three rather than pretend the list is deeper than it is.
Why is this list so much shorter than the Perth pages?
Broome is a small, remote Kimberley town, and dedicated fencing businesses are genuinely thin on the ground. Most fencers here also do general steel fabrication rather than fencing exclusively. We’d rather publish an honest list of three than pad it with businesses that don’t clear our rating and review bar.
Are these paid placements?
No. This list is ordered on Google review data. Businesses can pay for a “Featured” spot at the top, which is clearly labelled, but paying never changes the review-based order below. As of this update, no spots are sold.
Why does fencing cost more in Broome than Perth?
Mostly freight. Materials have to travel a long way to reach the Kimberley, and that cost is passed on. Cyclone-rated bracing and fixings, where genuinely needed, also add to the price compared to a standard southern-WA fence.
Do I need a cyclone-rated fence in Broome?
Broome sits within a cyclone-prone region of WA, and while not every fence needs full cyclone engineering, it’s worth asking your fencer directly whether their standard specification includes bracing and fixings suited to the local wind zone, rather than assuming a generic fence design will hold up.
Who pays for a dividing fence, me or my neighbour?
In WA, a dividing fence between two properties is generally a shared cost under the Dividing Fences Act 1961. Broadly, each owner is liable for half the cost of a “sufficient” dividing fence. This is general information, not legal advice, so check the current rules or get advice for your situation.
How long does a fence take in Broome?
Longer than in Perth, mostly due to freight lead times on materials. Once materials are on site, installation itself is often similar to anywhere else, a day or two for a standard boundary fence, but factor in extra weeks for ordering and delivery.
How often is this page updated?
Monthly. Ratings and review counts move, new fencers earn their spot, and we re-pull the data so the list stays honest and current.
