Wellington Privacy Fencing

Enjoy your outdoor space in peace with a solid fence that blocks sightlines and softens the wind. We design and build timber, PVC, and composite privacy fencing that looks as good from your deck as it does from the street.

Privacy Fencing Services in Wellington

Nothing takes the relaxation out of a backyard faster than feeling watched — neighbours looking straight onto your patio, passers-by peering in, or a section that's just too open to enjoy. If you've been holding back on using your own outdoor space, a proper screen changes everything. Our privacy fencing Wellington service gives you a solid, good-looking barrier that shuts out the view and turns your yard back into somewhere you actually want to be.

We build in a range of materials and heights to suit your home, whether you want the warmth of timber, the clean lines of composite, or the low upkeep of PVC. Our fencing team handles the layout, wind loading, and finish so your fence sits straight, lasts for years, and gives you the seclusion you're after without feeling like a fortress.

Why Choose Us

Privacy Screen Installation Services in Wellington

Privacy Where You Need It

Privacy screens give you shelter from neighbours and passers-by without enclosing the whole section, so we position them around decks, spas, patios and windows to create comfortable, private spaces exactly where you want them. Targeted screening protects privacy, not light.

Slatted, Louvred and Solid Styles

We offer a range of screen designs that balance privacy, light and airflow, helping you choose a style that suits your property, your budget and the way you use your outdoor areas. Each style balances shelter, sunlight and appeal differently.

Wind-Friendly Designs

Solid screens can struggle in Wellington's wind, so we recommend partially open designs where appropriate, and install strong posts and secure fixings to help your screen stay stable and quiet in all conditions. Good design keeps screens standing firmly, quietly.

Quality Timber and Metal Options

Choose durable treated timber, aluminium or steel framed screens in finishes that match your house and landscaping, giving you an attractive feature that offers privacy without sacrificing the look of your property. These materials create lasting screens needing minimal maintenance.

Deck and Balcony Screening

We can fit privacy screens to decks, balconies and boundaries, with safe fixings and tidy detailing, helping you enjoy your outdoor spaces without feeling overlooked by neighbouring properties. Well-fitted screens make elevated outdoor spaces feel more private, secure and comfortable.

Council Rules and Neighbour Awareness

Screen height and position can affect neighbours and may be subject to local rules, so we help you consider the requirements before installation, keeping your project smooth and avoiding unnecessary disputes. Considering neighbours early avoids complaints, delays and expensive changes.

Your Options

Privacy Screen Materials and Styles

The right build depends on the look you want, your budget, and how much upkeep you're happy with. We'll walk you through the choices and recommend what suits your section.

Popular options include:

  • Vertical or horizontal timber panels
  • Low-maintenance PVC privacy fencing
  • Composite panels with a modern finish
  • Slatted screens for partial privacy and airflow
  • Lattice or trellis toppers for extra height
  • Matching gates and garden screens
Getting the Height Right

Privacy Without the Guesswork

The trick with a privacy fence is balancing seclusion against light, outlook, and the local rules on height. We take care of all of that for you.

We'll help with:

  • Choosing a height that screens without boxing you in
  • Advice on council height limits and boundaries
  • Positioning to block key sightlines
  • Wind-rated construction for exposed sites
  • Softening the look with planting or slats
  • Coordinating with neighbours on shared boundaries

Tell us where the problem sightlines are and we'll design a fence that solves them.

Our Team

Why Choose Our Privacy Screen Contractors in Wellington

FAQ

Privacy Fencing FAQs

Most councils allow boundary fences up to around 2 metres without consent, which is usually enough for good privacy. Front boundaries facing the road often have lower limits for visibility. We'll check the rules for your property and design to suit.

Timber is the classic choice and can be stained or painted, composite offers a modern look with little upkeep, and PVC is the easiest to maintain. All three can be built solid for full privacy. We'll help you weigh looks, budget, and maintenance.

If the fence is on a shared boundary, it's worth discussing, as costs are often shared under the Fencing Act. We're happy to explain how it usually works and can build to a standard that keeps everyone happy.

Yes, when it's built for it. Solid fences catch a lot of wind, so we use stronger posts, deeper footings, and the right fixings on exposed sites. Slatted options are also available where you want to let some breeze through.
