Timber Fencing Cairns
Timber is BJ Works' signature craft. Ben builds hardwood and treated pine paling fences for Cairns homes, set on concreted posts and finished by hand.
Timber Fencing for Cairns Homes
A well-built timber fence gives a warm, natural look that suits Queenslanders, new builds and tropical gardens alike. We build paling, capped-and-lapped and feature timber fences for front yards, backyards and boundaries.
Hardwood vs Treated Pine
Hardwood is dense and naturally durable, with a premium look. Treated pine is more affordable and, with H4 in-ground posts and H3 palings, holds up well against termites and moisture. Ben will walk you through which suits your budget, your site and the look you want.
Built for the Tropics
Cairns heat, humidity and wet-season rain are hard on timber. We use concreted posts, hot-dip galvanised fixings and sensible paling spacing to allow for timber movement, and can advise on stain or oil finishes to extend the life of your fence.
Our Timber Fence Installation
Site visit and measure, a clear fixed quote, removal of any old fence, then setting posts, rails and palings to a straight, level line. We tidy the site when we finish.

Timber Fencing FAQs
Does BJ Works install timber fencing in Cairns?
Yes. BJ Works installs residential timber fencing throughout Cairns and surrounding suburbs, including boundary, privacy and replacement fencing.
Is timber fencing good for Cairns?
Yes, when it's built properly. Using treated or durable hardwood timber, concreted posts and galvanised fixings helps a timber fence handle Cairns' heat, humidity and wet season.
How long does a timber fence last?
It depends on the timber, the site and how it's maintained. Treated pine and hardwood fences that are built well and kept clear of garden beds and sprinklers last considerably longer. Ben can give advice specific to your property.
What's the difference between hardwood and treated pine fencing?
Hardwood is denser with a premium look; treated pine is more affordable and chemically treated against termites and rot. Both are good options in Cairns when installed correctly.
