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.

Benefits of a Privacy Fence
True Seclusion
Solid panels block direct sightlines from neighbours and the street, so you can relax, entertain, and unwind without an audience.
Wind Shelter
A well-placed fence takes the edge off Wellington's gusts, making patios, decks, and gardens far more usable.
Noise Buffer
A tall, solid fence helps soften traffic and neighbourhood noise, adding a calmer feel to your outdoor space.
Material Choice
Pick timber, PVC, or composite to match your home's look and your appetite for maintenance.
Safer for Kids and Pets
An enclosed yard keeps little ones and animals in and keeps the outside world out.
Adds Value
A tidy, private outdoor area is a genuine drawcard for buyers and lifts the appeal of your property.
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

Privacy Without the Guesswork

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

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

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.
