Brick fences and retaining walls in Northbridge.

Northbridge 2063 - Lower North Shore

About Northbridge

Northbridge's substantial post-war and contemporary homes sit on stepped blocks above Middle Harbour. Salt exposure near the harbour shapes durability choices.

Brick fences

Brick fences in Northbridge.

Long pier-and-panel brick fences combined with retaining walls are typical. Face brick, render, or sandstone-capped piers suit the architecture; durable brick selection handles the salt.

What we handle

  • Demolition of existing fences
  • Concrete footings
  • Bricklaying: face brick, render, paint
  • Piers, capping, decorative detailing
  • Gates and aluminium-slat infills
  • Combined retaining-and-fence builds

See more on our brick fences page, or talk through styles on the brick fence design page.

Retaining walls

Retaining walls in Northbridge.

Tall retaining walls are typical given the stepped blocks. We build engineered concrete-block walls with full drainage and tanking, rendered or sandstone-faced finishes. Combined retaining-and-fence builds at the front boundary are standard.

What we handle

  • Site assessment and engineered design
  • Demolition of existing structures
  • Excavation and concrete footings
  • Reinforced concrete block construction
  • Drainage and tanking
  • Render, paint, or face-block finishes

See more on our retaining walls page, or read about engineering on the retaining wall design page.
