About St Ives

St Ives' substantial post-war and contemporary homes sit on large blocks with mature gardens, often backing onto bushland reserves.

Brick fences

Brick fences in St Ives.

Brick fence work is typically full pier-and-panel runs in face brick, often with sandstone caps. Retaining integration is common given the slope.

What we handle

  • Demolition of existing fences
  • Concrete footings
  • Bricklaying: face brick, render, paint
  • Piers, capping, decorative detailing
  • Gates and aluminium-slat infills
  • Combined retaining-and-fence builds

See more on our brick fences page, or talk through styles on the brick fence design page.
