Highlights
“Richard and Stefan had replaced my side fence panels in February and this time replaced the back fence panels. Also this time, Stefan reinforced with cement one of my existing concrete posts that was slightly slanting. As previously, with all jobs that they have done for me, the work was carried out to an excellent standard. I thoroughly recommend Richard and Stefan, arrive on time, clean and tidy workers, work to an excellent standard, polite and courteous throughout.”
“We used Drew's fencing for the first time as he was recommended by our neighbour. Richard and his assistant were so professional from start to finish. The fencing was excellent and very good quality. They were very careful of our plants and grass. We would highly recommend him. Both Richard and his assistant were very polite at all times. Very good value for the quality of work.”
