“I contacted Fox Fencing as my close boarded fence had been damaged by the strong winds in January 2025, and was needing strengthening. I had a quick response to my enquiry from Harrison, and their team arrived two weeks later on a Saturday morning to do the work. I can say that the team did an excellent professional job, and everything was very tidy afterwards. I would certainly recommend them.”
