CONFIRM DISTANCE REQUIREMENTS FROM BOUNDARIES
This varies from state to state, so best to check with your local council.
LOCATE YOUR PROPERTY BOUNDARY. WONDERING HOW?
1. Check your deed.
2. Review your property survey. When you bought your home, it's likely you received a map detailing property lines and measurements.
3. Access your state Land Registry Services.
4. Hire a surveyor. You will incur a charge for this service. However, if you have no other way of accurately identifying your property boundary, this option could save you headaches and countless expenses down the track.

CONSIDER PRIVACY & SECURITY
How much privacy & security will your planned fence provide? If your local council fence height doesn't meet your ideal level of privacy, consider adding privacy plants to your landscape design - factoring root growth to protect the stability of your fence, and unless you enjoy weekends of gardening -opt for a low maintenance option.
BUDGET PLANNING-
Obtain quotes, include site excavation, soil/ rubbish removal, consider the height and width of your retaining wall, drainage requirements.
NEW HOME OWNERS - CHECK YOUR ACCESS OPTIONS
Plan ahead, particularly if need to excavate for any reason, but don't have access points AFTER fences are installed.
HIRE A PROFESSIONAL
Although a DIY job may seem like a cost-saving exercise, often the expense of hiring equipment, buying materials at retail cost, in addition to dealing with common DIY concreting mistakes including uneven forms, incorrect height, not using proper reinforcement, using the wrong amount of water and not using joints can become a headache you're best avoiding.
CONCRETE, IT'S THE OBVIOUS CHOICE!
