Brick fences and retaining walls in Northwood.
Northwood 2066 - Lower North Shore
About Northwood
Northwood's quiet peninsula carries substantial homes on stepped blocks toward the river. The fall toward the foreshore is a constant factor.
Brick fences
Brick fences in Northwood.
Fences here are pier-and-panel face brick or rendered, with substantial piers that match the substantial architecture. Combined retaining-and-fence builds at the front boundary are standard given the foreshore slope.
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.

- Reinforced concrete block construction
