New fences in Christchurch
Building a new fence starts with knowing what it needs to do. Privacy around the backyard, a clear boundary or a street-facing fence each call for a different approach. Wolf Fencing builds timber fences for Christchurch homes, with gates planned alongside the fence when access is part of the job.
Send Vincent your suburb, rough fence length, preferred height and a few photos of the site. Include any slopes, tight access or nearby structures. He can talk through the board style, materials and the work involved before quoting.
Old fence removal and fence replacement
If the old fence has had its day, we can take it down and build a replacement. Plan removal, the new fence and any gates as one job. We’ll agree what comes down, how the old materials will be handled and what the new boundary needs to achieve.
Photographs of the existing posts, boards and both sides of the boundary help explain the job. Tell us what you want to keep, what needs changing and any access you need while the work is underway. For timber or iron fence removal and the full service range, see our Christchurch fencing services.
See a fence we’ve actually built
Our timber boundary fence and matching gate project shows horizontal boards, dark posts and a coordinated pedestrian entrance. View the finished fence from the street and inside the property. Bring a reference photo if you have a different style in mind.
A boundary that works for your property
Start with what you want the fence to achieve. A backyard boundary may be about privacy, while a street-facing fence also shapes the look of your home. The height, board layout and relationship to neighbouring fences all affect the result. We can talk through the practical choices before you settle on a design.
Horizontal or vertical timber boards?
Horizontal boards create a continuous line across the fence; vertical boards create a different rhythm. Solid coverage offers more screening, while spacing changes how open the fence feels. Bring a reference photo or look through our project images, and we can discuss a style that works with your property and gate.
What to share when requesting a quote
Send the Christchurch suburb, approximate fence length and preferred height. Photos of the existing boundary, changes in ground level and access to the site are useful. Let us know whether an old fence is present, whether you need a gate, and what neighbouring structures or planting need to be considered. These details help us understand the work involved.
A fence and gate planned together
Think about pedestrian access, driveway access and how the gate will sit within the fence line. Planning both together helps create a coherent entrance rather than treating the gate as an afterthought. If an entrance is part of your project, explore our custom gates page before getting in touch.
Questions about your project
How much does timber fencing cost in Christchurch?
The cost depends on the length, height, board style, ground conditions, access and any gate or existing fence work. Share photos and measurements so we can discuss a quote for your actual property.
Can I use a photo as a starting point?
Yes. A reference photo helps explain the board layout and finish you have in mind. We can discuss how that design could work on your site.
