Welcome to On The Fencing, your trusted Merriang experts in high-quality timber fencing solutions. Whether you’re looking to enhance the privacy, security, or aesthetic appeal of your property, our timber fencing services offer a classic, long-lasting, and eco-friendly choice. With a keen focus on craftsmanship, we excel in providing and installing timber fences that integrate smoothly with your outdoor area while enduring Melbourne’s varied weather conditions. Let us help you create a fence that not only protects but also enhances the natural beauty of your home.
The time required to install a new fence can vary widely depending on several factors, including the height of the fence (and depth of the fence posts), the length of the fence, the materials employed, the complexity of the design, and the terrain of the installation site.
Generally, smaller, straightforward fence installations, such as timber or colorbond fence, on level and clear land can be completed within one to three days.
However, larger or more intricate installations, or those on uneven terrain with obstructions, might take a week or longer.
We offer comprehensive solutions tailored to meet your specific needs. Whether you’re looking to replace a damaged section, fix a worn-out part, or are in need of a full fence replacement, our skilled team is ready to assist.
Timber Paling Fence Options
Timber paling fences are a favored option in Melbourne. We offer installations at various heights to meet your privacy needs, with the option to add extensions for extra height.
Timber Paling (aka lapped palings) with Posts on one side
Timber Paling with Posts on one side is the standard type of timber paling fence in Melbourne. The posts and rails are positioned on one side of the fence, while the palings are on the opposite side.
Exposed Post Timber Paling Fencing
Exposed post timber paling fences feature posts that stick out and are visible on the paling side of the fence. Rails are present only on one side of the fence.
Enhanced Lapped & Capped Fencing
Building on the lapped design, this fencing includes caps for added durability and aesthetic appeal, ensuring both longevity and an enhanced appearance.
Contemporary Horizontal Slat Screening
For a contemporary fencing solution, opt for horizontal slat screening. This modern approach fits well with various house styles, utilizing durable Merbau wood for outdoor longevity.
Colonial Style Fencing
For homes with colonial architecture, colonial fencing is an ideal addition. It is available in different colors, with customizable post tops and picket styles, complementing your home’s aesthetic perfectly.
Yes, we can demolish, remove and dispose of your old existing fence. The removal cost depends on the type and length of the old fence.

Merriang 3737
Merriang
Timber paling fencing is a classic and robust solution for delineating property boundaries and ensuring privacy in Merriang VIC 3737. Esteemed for its natural aesthetic that seamlessly blends with the rural landscapes, this type of fencing is both practical and versatile, lending itself well to the diverse properties throughout the region—from residential backyards to expansive farms. The construction of paling fences typically involves vertically oriented timber boards—known as 'palings'—which are affixed to two or more horizontal supports, or rails, themselves connected to sturdy upright posts embedded into the ground. The posts are often concreted in place to enhance stability and longevity.
Selecting the right timber is a critical consideration for fences in Merriang, as the material must withstand the area's weather conditions. Popular species for paling fences include treated pine, which is prized for its resistance to decay and insects, and hardwoods such as merbau or red gum for their superior strength and durability. Furthermore, it is recommended to apply protective coatings to the timber, ensuring that it resists the challenges of moisture, UV rays, and potential pest infestations, hence prolonging the fence's service life.
Professional installation of timber paling fencing is paramount to ensure that the structure is not only aesthetically pleasing but also complies with local building codes and withstands the test of time. Expert contractors in Merriang can provide guidance on the optimal design and orientation for specific sites, taking into account factors such as the slope of the land, soil type, and prevailing winds. They will also advise on maintenance practices, which generally include periodic cleaning, resealing or painting, and prompt replacement of any damaged sections to maintain fence integrity. By investing in high-quality materials and expert installation, homeowners and landowners in the Merriang area can enhance their property's security, privacy, and overall value through the addition of timber paling fencing.
