Construction site fencing, new boundary fences and made-to-measure gates for Nundah builders, neighbours and owners of older homes.
Nundah keeps rebuilding itself. Old interwar houses come down, unit blocks go up, and every new project creates fresh boundaries with the homes next door. That makes fencing in Nundah a job of two halves: securing the building site, then settling the permanent line between old and new. Sureline Fencing has fabricated chain wire and steel gates in the area since 1996. As a fence contractor Nundah builders and residents can call on from nearby Geebung, we quote after a free site visit. Talk to us about fencing in Nundah.
As well as fencing in Nundah, we work across the neighbouring suburbs along Sandgate Road, Toombul Road and Kedron Brook. Builders with sites in more than one suburb can book fencing in Nundah and nearby areas through the same team.

Six in ten Nundah dwellings are now flats or apartments, yet interwar homes still line many streets. When a block is redeveloped, the fence between a new complex and an old cottage matters to both. Good fencing in Nundah protects the build while it happens and leaves a tidy, fair boundary once it's done.
We put up construction site fencing for builders, then return for the permanent boundary when the job wraps up. Home owners come to us for repairs and gates, and trades buy fencing supplies in Nundah jobs need from our Geebung yard. One team can handle fencing in Nundah from demolition to handover.
Infill sites are tight. Trucks share narrow streets, neighbours are close, and a boundary might run hard against a driveway or an old garden bed. Fencing in Nundah on these sites needs careful gate placement for deliveries and clear communication with whoever lives next door.
Sureline began in neighbouring Northgate in 1996 and moved into a larger Geebung factory in 2006. We weld gates in-house, so a site gate that gets clipped by a truck can be remade without a long wait. Builders like dealing with the people who make the product. Our crew brings more than 90 years of combined know-how, and every quote for fencing in Nundah is free, written and itemised.

Geebung outletHere is the work that makes up most of our fencing in Nundah, split between building sites and established homes. Every job for fencing in Nundah is measured on site before we put a price on it.
Redevelopment in a built-up street needs a perimeter that keeps the public out and lets vehicles in. Construction site fencing Nundah builders order from us comes with access gates placed around the driveway, the delivery zone and the neighbours' boundaries. Let us know the site layout early and we'll plan the gates before the first truck arrives.

About construction site fencingWhen a unit complex rises next to a house, the shared line often needs a new boundary fence. We install chain wire or weld mesh along the survey line, finish it neatly at both ends and match heights where the ground changes. Chain wire fencing Nundah owners choose is available galvanised, black powder-coated or PVC-coated.
Best for: owners next to new developments and new complexes
Chain wire fencing detailsInterwar houses often have odd-sized openings, narrow side paths and old driveways. Our custom gates are welded to the exact measurement, including steel frames that take timber palings to suit a cottage fence. Sliding gates help where a new neighbouring wall leaves no room for a gate to swing.
Best for: interwar cottages and older family homes
Our gate rangeOlder boundaries get knocked by machinery next door, lean after years of rain or simply wear out. Fence repairs Nundah owners ask for include straightening or replacing posts, patching mesh, and rehanging or rebuilding gates. We'll tell you honestly whether a repair will last or a replacement run is the better spend.
Best for: owners and landlords of older properties
Fence and gate repair serviceNew unit blocks often want a firmer edge around car parks, bin stores and entries. We supply and install palisade steel or weld mesh security fencing with matching pedestrian and vehicle gates. It suits body corporates finishing a project, or older blocks upgrading a tired perimeter.
Best for: new and established unit complexes

Nundah began in 1838 as the Zion Hill mission, set up by German Moravian missionaries near Kedron Brook, and the area was long called German Station. Nundah village later became the administrative centre of Toombul Shire, with shire offices on Sandgate Road. Queensland Places describes mainly interwar housing, but by 2021 flats and apartments made up most dwellings among its 13,098 residents (ABS).
That shift means constant infill. Older homes now sit beside new unit blocks, so boundaries change, fences get removed for construction and neighbours have to agree on what goes back. Building sites also need a safe perimeter in streets where parking and access are tight.
An unsecured site is a risk to the public and a liability for the builder. For the house next door, the new fence line will be there for decades. Under Queensland's dividing fence law, adjoining owners generally split the cost of a sufficient fence, so the dividing fence cost is worth agreeing in writing.
For fencing in Nundah, we plan site gates around deliveries, fence in stages if the build needs it, and give neighbours a clear written specification for the permanent line. Our Geebung workshop keeps fencing in Nundah moving when a gate needs remaking mid-project, and trades can collect the fencing supplies Nundah sites use from the same counter.

Much of the trouble we're called about with fencing in Nundah traces back to redevelopment next door or ageing fences on older blocks. Here are the three we hear about most with fencing in Nundah.
Demolition and site works often mean the old dividing fence is removed or damaged, leaving your yard open to the construction site.
An open boundary lets pets out and dust, debris and people in, and it's unclear who should pay for the new fence.
We can fence the site edge temporarily, then quote the permanent boundary in writing so you and the developer can agree on it. Signs to watch for: missing panels, bent posts and mesh lifted by machinery.
One owner wants a taller or more private fence, the other wants the cheapest option, and the old fence gives no clear guide.
In Queensland, neighbours generally contribute equally to a sufficient dividing fence. If they can't agree within a month of written notice, QCAT can decide.
We provide an itemised quote and specification that both owners can review. That gives the formal notice process a clear starting point and keeps talks practical.
Construction gates open and close all day for trucks and trades, and a knock from a vehicle can bend the frame or shift a post.
A gate that won't lock leaves tools and materials exposed overnight and can put the public at risk.
We check the posts, straighten or replace the frame and fit new hinges and a lockable latch. If the gate is beyond repair, we can fabricate a new one in Geebung, with a 48-hour turnaround available on custom gates.

Get a Free QuoteYes. We fence redevelopment sites in Nundah with secure perimeters and access gates positioned for trucks, plant and deliveries. Tight streets and close neighbours are common on infill sites, so we walk the site with you before we set gate positions. Tell us the build stages and we can fence in sections as the project needs.
Queensland's Neighbourhood Disputes (Dividing Fences and Trees) Act 2011 generally has adjoining owners share the cost of a sufficient dividing fence equally. That applies whether your neighbour is a person or a body corporate. The owner wanting the work usually gives written notice. If there's no agreement within a month, QCAT can decide. Our itemised quote gives both sides something concrete to discuss.
Yes. Older Nundah homes often have openings that don't match standard gate sizes. We measure the gap and fabricate custom gates to fit, including steel frames that take timber palings. Custom gates can be made with a 48-hour turnaround, and we fit hinges and latches to suit how the gate will be used.
Most boundary fences don't need approval. Brisbane City Council requires building approval when a fence stands more than 2 metres above natural ground, counting any screen or retaining wall below it, or when it is part of a regulated pool barrier. Overlays and neighbourhood plans may add rules, so check City Plan for your lot. We'll flag it at the site visit.
Length, height, mesh type, finish, the number of gates, site access and whether old fencing must be removed all change the price. Construction site fencing also depends on how long the build runs and how many access points you need. We measure for free and send an itemised written quote. Check that rival quotes list the same specification before comparing.
Start dates depend on job size and our schedule. Our Geebung base is a short drive from Nundah, so site measures are easy to arrange, and custom gates can be made with a 48-hour turnaround. Builders should call (07) 3865 8100 as soon as start dates are known, so the perimeter is ready before demolition begins.
German Moravian missionaries set up the Zion Hill mission near Kedron Brook in 1838, and the area became known as German Station. The mission failed by 1844, but some missionaries stayed and bought land once lots were surveyed in 1848. A school opened in 1865. When the railway arrived in 1882 the station was called German, then renamed Nundah within weeks. Nundah served as Toombul Shire's administrative centre from 1890 until 1925, and Toombul Shoppingtown opened in 1967. We carry out fencing in Nundah from our Geebung workshop.
