Securing Dunsevern's large stands and established gardens
In Dunsevern, electric fences protect a mix of properties, from freestanding homes on large stands to townhouse complexes. The key challenge is the suburb's established, tree-lined character. Long boundary walls along roads like George Avenue are often lined with mature trees, whose branches can ground the fence, causing constant tripping and leaving sections vulnerable. These established gardens can also obscure deteriorating wall conditions or older, failing fence components.
Our focus is on making sure the fence line remains clear and functional. We carefully trim vegetation touching the strands and can install offset brackets to guide the fence around heavy foliage. For Dunsevern's older properties, we inspect the integrity of wall brackets and test the earthing system, which is important for the fence's effectiveness. On shared perimeters, such as those in the Royal View scheme, we make sure every section is properly integrated and powered.
When you sell a property in Dunsevern, an Electric Fence System Certificate is usually requested for any transfer after 1 October 2012. For a freestanding home, the seller arranges this inspection; we recommend booking it at listing to avoid delays. In a townhouse complex, the certificate covers the entire perimeter and is held by the body corporate. Tyson is registered with the Department of Employment and Labour to issue these certificates, and proof of registration is available on request.
Everything we install and repair, and how a job runs from first call to handover, is on our electric fencing page.
Questions from Dunsevern
My fence is constantly being triggered by trees. Do I need to cut them down?
Not usually. Our first step is to clear branches currently touching the fence. We can often reposition wires or use offset brackets to create more clearance. We will then show you which specific branches need regular trimming to keep the fence clear.
I'm selling my townhouse. Do I need my own electric fence certificate?
No, for a sectional title complex, the certificate covers the entire perimeter and is issued to the body corporate. Your estate agent should request a copy from the managing agent. If the fence has been altered or no certificate exists, the body corporate would need to arrange for a new one.
