Fencing in Caloundra
Caloundra sits right on the water, and salt and wind are hard on a fence. We build Colorbond, timber, slat screening, gates and retaining walls that are specified for coastal conditions instead of inland ones — from a local crew, with a free on-site measure-up.
Coastal fencing is a different job
From Kings Beach through Golden Beach and out to Currimundi, fences here cop salt-laden air and onshore wind that inland suburbs never see. It changes what we recommend.
Salt and coastal exposure
Salt air is the thing that shortens a fence's life near the water. It affects which materials and fixings make sense for your block, and we will talk you through the trade-offs at the quote rather than after.
Wind loading on long runs
An exposed run catches wind like a sail. Post spacing and footings matter more here than they do a few kilometres inland, particularly on taller privacy fencing.
Sandy ground
Closer to the beach the ground is sandier, which changes how footings need to be set so posts stay put. We check the ground at the measure-up.

Caloundra fencing questions
Do you do fencing in Caloundra?
Yes. Caloundra is well inside our patch — we work from Deception Bay up to Coolum and west to Maleny, and we are in the Caloundra area most weeks. The measure-up is free.
Does salt air really affect a fence?
Near the water, yes. Coastal air is harder on metal fixings and finishes than it is a few kilometres inland. It is worth getting the specification right up front rather than replacing things early, and we will go through the options with you on site.
What does a fence cost in Caloundra?
Every yard is different, so we come out and give you a price after a free measure-up. It comes down to the length, the height, the number of ends and corners, and what the ground and access are doing.
Who pays for a boundary fence?
In Queensland a shared boundary (dividing) fence is generally split 50/50 between you and your neighbour under the Neighbourhood Disputes (Dividing Fences and Trees) Act. We can quote it so both sides can see exactly what they are agreeing to.
Do you remove the old fence?
Yes, and we prefer to. Our fee includes full demolition and disposal, ready for your new fence to go in.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. CoasTrade holds QBCC licence 15544859 and we are fully insured. Fencing work over $3,300 in Queensland legally needs a licensed contractor.
