Built dead straight. Finished properly.
Fencing, decks, pergolas, carports and retaining walls across Brisbane, the Redlands and Logan. Measured and set out before anything is dug, so what you end up with holds a line you can see from the street.
Roughly what will it cost?
Move the slider, pick the type of fence, and the range is there. No email address, no phone number, and no waiting on a callback to find out whether you are in the right ballpark.
Not sure? Pace it out. One decent stride is close enough to a metre for this.
Only used if you send the enquiry through. It does not change the estimate.
Tyrone builds all of these. There is no per-metre rate for them because every one is different, so they get a proper quote rather than a number off a calculator.

Never over the phone. A price given without seeing the ground is a guess, and guesses turn into variations later.
Costs you nothing, and if the job goes ahead it comes off the work.
Offcuts and the old fence go on the truck. You should not be able to tell where one day’s work stopped and the next started.
Anyone can put a fence up. Fewer can put one up straight.
Tyrone will tell you the difference is the quality of the work, the attention to detail, and the thought that goes in before the first post hole. That is not a slogan, it is a way of working, and it shows up in the boring parts: consistent post centres, footings to depth, rails level over the whole run.
The set-out
Measured, marked and checked before anything is dug. A run that starts twenty millimetres out finishes a long way out, and no amount of good building fixes it afterwards.
The bits you will not see
Footing depth, drainage behind a retaining wall, the fixings. The parts that decide whether it is still right in five years are the parts nobody photographs.
The finish
Cuts clean, gaps even, site cleared. You should not be able to tell where one day’s work stopped and the next started.
What Smitco builds.
Outdoor building work, start to finish. Most jobs land between two and three days. All services →
Fencing
Timber paling, lapped and capped, Colorbond, aluminium and frameless glass pool fencing, PVC privacy and aluminium slat. All of it set out properly, with posts on consistent centres and footings dug to depth. A fence that is out by twenty millimetres over a run reads as wrong even to someone who could not tell you why, which is exactly why the set-out matters more than the speed.
Pool fencing is built to the compliance rules, not around them.
Decks
Low-set and elevated decking, framed square and fixed down neatly. Board gaps consistent, cuts clean, fixings in line. The parts people notice are the parts most people rush.
Pergolas
Freestanding and attached pergolas. Posts plumb, beams level, rafters evenly spaced. Built to sit right with the house rather than look bolted on afterwards.
Carports
Single and double carports, framed and roofed. Set out around the actual driveway and the actual car, not a standard span that nearly fits.
Straight off the job.

No step in it and no wander. A run reads straight because the set-out was right before the first hole was dug.
The sleepers take the fall, the fence sits level on top of them.
Hung to swing clear of the ground and shut square.
