Top Privacy Screens related questions

While some people choose to DIY, it’s safest to hire a professional with the expertise, skills and tools to get the job done properly the first time.
The most popular locations include bin areas, thanks, and any areas with exposed plumbing. People also often use privacy screens for their decks and patios, as well as a backdrop for their gardens.
Currently, timber decking privacy screens are very popular. Merbau or kwila hardwood is especially popular because of its durability and aesthetic qualities.
If you are planning on building a very high privacy screen, it’s best to get advice from your local council and look up the building codes and standards of your state.
A privacy screen limits an outsider’s view and is also used for décor purposes. A fence is usually longer, as it forms a barrier that creates a border and defines an area. Some fences (like Colorbond fencing) are private, while others offer very little privacy.
On Airtasker, a privacy screen installation service is usually between $150-$160. But you could pay more or less than this depending on the type of privacy screen, the size of the screen, and how long it’ll take to install.

What does a privacy screen install include?

Privacy screen installation methods will vary depending on where you’d like your screen installed and what kind of screen you want. Whether you’d like a patio, deck, garden, caravan, balcony, or indoor privacy screen, your installer will bring their own tools to get the job done Here are the most common services and what you can expect:


Installing with a post system

Timber post systems are popular outdoor privacy screens for gardens, townhouses, caravans, and apartments with shared spaces. Your contractor will first measure the width of your screen panels and mark the corresponding position for the posts on the ground. Next, they’ll dig the holes deep enough to hold a third of your posts before placing the posts and filling the hole with concrete. Once the concrete has set, the holes are covered with dirt. For aluminium screens, your handyman will then hold brackets up to the screen’s frame, pre-drill holes on either side of the frame, and screw the brackets on. Finally, they’ll attach the screen to the brackets and secure it with screws.


Installing on existing rail

Adding a privacy screen to your existing rail is ideal for decks, patios, balconies, and verandas. Your installer will first measure the width of the screen panels and add any additional posts that are needed to support your screen. Then they’ll hold the brackets up to the frame, pre-drill holes on either side of the frame, and screw the brackets on. They’ll attach the screen to the brackets using screws.


Bamboo screens

Bamboo privacy screens are normally hung off a fence or wall. Your installer will start by installing screw eyes horizontally across the area where the bamboo screen will be installed. They’ll use three screw eyes for each individual bamboo screen. They’ll run wire through the screw eyes and tie the wire off, removing any kinks in the process. Next, they’ll roll out the bamboo screen along the wall and use a crimping tool and netting clips to clamp the clips along the wire fence and secure the bamboo screen.

Seal off the top of this privacy screen to prevent wildlife access

$550

Brighton East VIC 3187, Australia

7th Dec 2025

We live in a townhouse and upstairs there are two large timber-framed privacy screens covering almost the full length of our floor-to-ceiling windows in two bedrooms. The top of each screen is open. Birds have occasionally become trapped inside, and possums have used the space in the past. We want the tops sealed to prevent both birds and possums from accessing the boxes. The dimensions are approximately 3.5m x30cm Options could include chicken wire, netting, perspex, or similar materials. Access is very limited: we can only reach the box from inside through a narrow winder window. External access is extremely difficult (high ceilings, second floor). The boxed area has timber on two sides only. The remaining long side is a steel window frame and the remaining short side is a steel column. We are looking for suggestions and installation proposals that work within these constraints.

Experienced Installer Needed: Decorative Privacy Screens by Pool

$1,500

Holland Park QLD, Australia

19th Nov 2025

Looking for a skilled handyman or tradesperson to help with installing a privacy screen along our pool fence in Holland Park (Brisbane). We’ve done some research and have looked into products like the Jack Matrix decorative screens from Bunnings, as they seem to suit the space and match what’s already on the other end of the pool. Happy to share our findings, but open to expert advice on what will work best. We have a garden bed running alongside the fence that could suit posts or screening – around 5.5m in length and 46cm wide – but we’re not fixed on one solution and would appreciate someone coming to take a proper look and quote. Ideally, we’re after: • A secure and tidy privacy solution that fits the space • Advice on mounting method (in-ground posts, base plate, sleeper footing etc.) • A finished look that blends with what we already have Materials can be supplied or included in your quote – happy to discuss.

Craig was fantastic — professional, friendly, and easy to work with. He took the time to understand what we were hoping to achieve, offered practical advice, and delivered a clean, solid install that matched our vision perfectly. Couldn’t recommend him more highly.
