Best fencing contractors in Bunbury, Australind & Eaton (2026)
Table of Contents
These are the best-rated fencing contractors working Bunbury, Australind, Eaton and the surrounding growth corridor, from South Bunbury, Carey Park, Withers, Davenport and Glen Iris through Picton, and out to Australind, Eaton, Dalyellup, College Grove and Usher. They’re ranked on real Google reviews, not on who paid us. Bunbury is WA’s largest regional city, so unlike some smaller South West towns this is a genuinely healthy, well-tested local trade with several operators carrying deep review counts. What follows is what fencing actually costs down here in 2026, why the growth corridor and coastal edge 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.
- Rating, weighted by volume. A 5.0 off a handful of jobs isn’t proof yet, so we weight the score by review count. Eclipse Fencing Company carries the deepest record on the page at 76 reviews, and that combination of volume and a near-perfect rating is what puts it on top, just ahead of T & V Fencing’s 80 reviews at a slightly lower average.
- Based in and working Bunbury, Australind and Eaton, verified on the map. Fencing is a mobile trade, so we checked the actual location of every operator across three separate searches.
- Seven genuine operators cleared the bar, we published all of them. Three more names surfaced in our searches but sat below our 4.3 rating floor and were left off rather than padded in.
- Specialists are flagged, not hidden. South West Fencing & Balustrades leans toward balustrades alongside fencing. We’ve kept it in its honest review position and told you what it does.
- 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.
Eclipse Fencing Company
A 4.9 held across 76 reviews is a genuinely strong record, and by a clear margin the highest-rated of the two biggest operators on this Bunbury page. Based in Bunbury proper, they’re a sensible first call for standard boundary work anywhere from South Bunbury through to the Australind growth corridor.

A note on the order: we weight the star rating by the number of reviews, so a proven record from a deeper base edges out a perfect score from a handful of jobs. That’s why Eclipse Fencing Company (4.9 from 76) sits just ahead of T & V Fencing (4.7 from 80), even though T & V carries the single biggest review count on the page, its slightly lower average puts it second on the weighted score. Seven genuine operators cleared our bar for this cluster and we’ve published all of them. Whoever you shortlist, get two or three fixed-price quotes on the same scope before you commit.
What fencing actually costs in Bunbury, Australind & Eaton (2026)
Nobody likes ringing a fencer blind on price. These are honest WA ballpark ranges for the common jobs, GST included. They’re a guide to keep you from being overcharged, not a quote, and fencing prices move with your material, your site and the length of the run, so the spread on each line is wide for a reason. This area has its own conditions worth pricing in: a strong new-estate growth corridor through Australind, Eaton and Dalyellup means a lot of the work is first-fence-on-a-new-block, sometimes under a developer building covenant; the coastal edge around Koombana Bay and the Leschenault Estuary brings a milder version of the salt-air corrosion issue Perth’s beachside suburbs deal with; and established older suburbs like South Bunbury and Carey Park have some ageing asbestos “Super Six” fibro fencing that needs licensed removal, not a standard pull-down.
| Job | Typical WA range | What pushes it up |
|---|---|---|
| Colorbond boundary fence, standard 1.8m (supply & install, per m) | $80-$130 / m | Height, access, removal of the old fence, panel gauge and colour |
| Timber paling or picket fence (supply & install, per m) | $85-$155 / m | Timber type, height, capping and lattice, gates, treated vs hardwood |
| Aluminium slat or tubular pool fence (per m) | $185-$350 / m | Style, height, powder-coat, custom panels, gates and latches |
| Tubular steel or garrison fence (per m) | $120-$250 / m | Height, spear tops, panel style, powder coat, gates |
| Rural post-and-wire boundary fence, acreage edge of town (per m) | $18-$36 / m | Number of wire runs, post spacing and material, terrain, gates |
| Single Colorbond or steel gate (supply & install) | $300-$700 | Width, frame, hardware, drop bolts, self-close hinges |
| Asbestos “Super Six” fence removal, older Bunbury suburbs (per m) | $40-$80 / m | Licensed removalist required, disposal fees, access, fence condition |
| Removal & disposal of standard old fence (per m) | $20-$45 / m | Fence type, footings to dig out, access, tip fees |
| New-estate boundary fencing, first fence on a vacant block (per m) | $75-$130 / m | Covenant-specified colour or style, shared vs single-owner cost, access for machinery |
The single biggest local factor is whether you’re on an older established block or a new one. In South Bunbury, Carey Park or Withers, older homes sometimes still carry original asbestos “Super Six” fencing sheets, these need a licensed asbestos removalist, not a standard demolition crew, and cost noticeably more to take down. If you’re building new in Australind, Eaton or Dalyellup, check your estate’s building covenant before you get quotes, plenty specify an approved fence colour, height or material. And if you’re right on the coast near Koombana Bay, ask about galvanised posts and coastal-grade fixings, the same way you would in a Perth beachside suburb, just less severe than directly on the open ocean.
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. A one-line “fence, $X” tells you nothing about what’s going in the ground. Get the detail in writing.
- No mention of asbestos, on an older block. If your existing fence looks like it could be original “Super Six” fibro sheeting, a fencer who wants to just rip it out without discussing licensed asbestos removal is a red flag. This isn’t a job for a standard demolition crew.
- No mention of your estate’s building covenant. If you’re on a newer block in Australind, Eaton or Dalyellup, a fencer who doesn’t ask about or check your estate’s covenant can install a fence colour, height or style that gets you in trouble with the developer or the council.
- Ignoring the boundary and the neighbour. A dividing fence sits on the boundary and, under WA’s Dividing Fences Act, the cost of a sufficient fence is usually shared with your neighbour. A fencer who won’t talk about where the true boundary is can land you in a dispute.
- 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.
- The quote is well under everyone else’s. On fencing the lowball is usually missing footing depth, gauge or proper disposal costs, the exact things that make it stand, last and stay compliant. Compare quotes on identical scope, not just the headline number.
- A big deposit up front. Materials for a fence don’t justify a huge deposit. Be wary of anyone wanting a large slice of the total before they’ve done a thing. A modest deposit with the balance on completion is normal.
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. It protects you if something is damaged or someone is injured on the job.
- 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. Vague quotes are where disputes start.
- Asbestos checked on an older fence. If your existing fence could be original “Super Six” fibro, confirm licensed asbestos removal is included, not a standard demolition rate.
- Estate covenant checked, on a new block. If you’re in Australind, Eaton, Dalyellup or another newer estate, confirm the fencer has seen your building covenant and is quoting the approved colour, height and material.
- Boundary and neighbour sorted. For a dividing fence, confirm where the boundary runs and, where the cost is shared, that your neighbour has agreed under WA’s Dividing Fences Act.
- Coastal fixings, near Koombana Bay. On or near the coast, confirm galvanised posts and a proper powder-coat so the fence holds up to sea air.
- Recent, specific reviews and references. Look for recent reviews that mention the actual fence or gate, and ask for a local job you can look at. A steady stream beats one old burst of five stars.
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. We weight the rating by review volume so a proven score isn’t leapfrogged by a perfect score from one or two jobs. That’s why Eclipse Fencing Company (4.9 from 76) sits just ahead of T & V Fencing (4.7 from 80), which carries the single biggest review count on the page but at a slightly lower average. Seven genuine operators cleared our bar for this cluster and we’ve published all of them.
Which areas does this cover?
Bunbury, South Bunbury, Carey Park, Withers, Davenport, Glen Iris and Picton; Australind, Eaton, Dalyellup, College Grove and Usher. Fencing is a service-area trade, so most on this list cover a good stretch of that catchment rather than a single suburb.
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.
How much does a Colorbond fence cost in Bunbury or Australind?
As a 2026 guide, a standard 1.8m Colorbond boundary fence runs roughly $80 to $130 per linear metre supplied and installed, so a typical suburban backyard of 25 to 40 metres usually lands somewhere around $2,000 to $5,200 depending on length, ground and access. Removing an old fence first adds roughly $20 to $45 per metre, more if it’s asbestos “Super Six” sheeting. These are ballparks to keep you from being overcharged, get your own job priced in writing after a fencer has seen the site.
Do I have to remove asbestos fencing myself?
No, and you generally shouldn’t try. Original “Super Six” fibro fencing common on older Bunbury suburb blocks contains asbestos, and removal needs a licensed asbestos removalist, not a standard fencing or demolition crew. Ask your fencer upfront whether they hold the right licence or subcontract this part of the job.
Do I have to match my estate’s building covenant on a new fence?
If you’re in a newer estate like Australind, Eaton or Dalyellup, quite possibly. Many developers set building covenants that specify the approved fence colour, height or material on street-facing boundaries for a set period after the estate is built. Check your covenant paperwork before you get quotes.
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, and you’re expected to give your neighbour notice and try to agree on the fence and the split before work starts. This is general information, not legal advice, so check the current rules or get advice for your situation.
Do I need council approval for a fence in Bunbury?
A standard dividing or backyard fence usually doesn’t need council approval, but there are exceptions. Front fences over a certain height, fences near a corner or driveway sight line, and pool and spa barriers, which must comply with the Australian Standard, can all need sign-off. Rules are set by the City of Bunbury or the Shire of Harvey depending on the address, so a good local fencer will know what’s expected, but confirm who is responsible for any approval before work starts.
How long does a fence take to install?
A typical Colorbond boundary fence is often a one to two day job once materials are on site: a day to pull out the old fence and set the posts, then a day for the panels and gates. Fencing a whole new estate block, or a job that includes asbestos removal, takes longer. Your fencer will give you a timeframe for your specific job.
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.
