Fence Builders Fitzroy
Fitzroy is old Melbourne. The fencing has to live up to it.
Fitzroy is one of Melbourne's oldest suburbs, and it shows in the architecture — Victorian terraces, bluestone laneways, and dense inner-city blocks that have been renovated and lived in for over a century. Fencing here has to work within those constraints.
The ground in Fitzroy is often a mixture of original soil, made ground, and whatever fill went in during past building works. You can't assume anything. Every site needs assessment before a post goes in.
We handle shared boundaries, rear lane access fencing, courtyard privacy screens, and front heritage fencing across Fitzroy. Inner-city work is what we do.

"Working with old brickwork and no access except the laneway — they figured it all out. Gate looks incredible and it swings properly on an old brick wall."
