Central Coast Timber Fencing
If you love the look of natural materials and want a fence that blends in with your outdoor space, timber is a timeless choice. At WeFence in Gosford, we install timber fencing across the Central Coast that’s not only practical but also packed with character.
Whether it’s for privacy, safety or simply adding that warm, organic touch to your yard, timber is easy to customise and works with all kinds of home styles from coastal cottages to modern builds. Timber can be cut and styled to suit tricky layouts or uneven ground, meaning it's perfect for bringing that classic touch to properties and yards that aren’t quite square or flat.

Natural Style With Built-In Versatility
What sets timber fencing apart is its versatility. You can go with a traditional paling fence, create a custom slat design for airflow and light, or choose something more decorative for front-facing street appeal. Timber also offers flexibility when it comes to finishes—leave it natural for a classic look, or paint and stain it to match your home’s colour scheme.
While timber does require some upkeep, like re-coating and the occasional repair, it’s easy to maintain and can last for many years when properly cared for. Plus, it’s easy to repair individual sections without replacing the whole fence. Whether you’re replacing a worn-out fence or planning a new layout from scratch, timber is a smart and stylish option.
How long does a timber fence last?
A timber fence can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years, depending on the type of timber used, how it’s treated and the local climate. Hardwood options like spotted gum or ironbark generally last longer than softer pine, especially when properly sealed and maintained. Regular staining or painting helps protect the timber from moisture, UV damage and pests, all of which can impact longevity. In coastal areas, using treated or durable species is especially important due to higher moisture levels and salt in the air.
What type of timber is best for fencing in Australia?
The best timber for fencing in Australia depends on your location and budget. Treated pine is popular due to its affordability and resistance to termites and decay. It’s ideal for residential fencing and easy to work with. Hardwood options like jarrah, spotted gum and ironbark offer higher durability and richer colours, making them suitable for premium builds or high-wear areas. These hard timbers typically cost more but last longer and resist weathering better than softwoods.
Does timber fencing require much maintenance?
Timber fences do need some maintenance to stay in good shape. You should inspect the fence annually for signs of rot, insect activity or warping. Re-staining or re-painting every 2–3 years helps protect the wood from sun and rain damage. Also, trimming back plants and keeping soil from building up around posts can help prevent premature decay. With consistent care, a timber fence can remain strong and good-looking for many years.
