Highlights

Excellent workmanship from Peter and his team. I'd been waiting since April to get him in as I liked his quality and workmanship. Prompt, kept it clean and tidy at all times, highlighted the issue of connecting to my neighbours fence and organised the skip. Plenty of compliments from the neighbours. Pics were of first day, he came back to finish on the second.

Peter responded promptly to every message, came back swiftly with a price and date for the work, and provided great suggestions. Two new fences, decking, railway sleepers to support back fence, and installed a rather tricky shed. All the work was done expertly and efficiently by Peter and his team, who were friendly, hard working and thorough. They left the place looking clean and tidy. Great job, I would recommend.

Peter came just over a week ago to quote for the renewal of 3 panels of fencing, posts and spurs. He explained what they would do and I had the quote the same day, within a few hours. Accepted quote and Peter and his team came today and carried out the work. They were polite, on time, worked cleanly and got on with the job. They also infilled a gap between the fence post and wall pillar. Brilliant job done, very neat and cleaned up after themselves. Would use them again and have already recommended them to others.

Sarah5.0 / 5 ·

This is the second time we have used The Shed for fencing work. We wanted to complete the stretch of fencing with trellis on our boundary of a c.80’ mid-terrace garden - another 4 sections in all. We have quite a few honeysuckle and clematis on that fence and Peter, Troy, Darcy did a wonderful job working from our neighbour’s garden retaining all our climbers so we can refix them to the new fence. We also wanted a solid, high partition on our other side to give us privacy. To be erected on our side of that neighbour’s existing broken fence. Two 6’x6’ flatboards were used, which involved working round the raised side of the drain and a pipe. All done professionally and very neatly. We are exceptionally pleased with the final results. Both Peter and his wife Sarah respond very quickly to the initial enquiry, and any other questions. We would highly recommend and use again.

We found Peter and his team (The Shed) via the TrustATrader website. Tendered the garden fencing job on other well known trading website but did not receive any response. Peter and his team did the work in no time, were polite and cleaned up after. The team inserted 6 fence panels and secured the rest which had become loose after strong, gusty winds. Well done Peter and the team for doing a good job!

We highly reccomend this company. We found them professional, very personable, a pleasure to have them do the work. I further applaud their ability to problem solve a tricky bit of fencing requirement at the rear of the garden. Everything was left clean and tidy on completion. We would have no hesitation in using them again for other work.

Peter and his lovely team did an excellent job. They arrived on time and worked very hard and non-stop through the rain to erect a new fence and gate that I am very pleased with. All waste was taken away quickly and efficiently too, leaving everything clean and tidy. A pleasure to deal with - thank you guys.

Peter came out to quote and then appily came to requote when we asked for some changes to the scope of work. Once we'd booked it in the work was completed to a high standard and we were impressed with how Peter both did the main work and tidied up the garden after they'd finished.

Excellent service from The Shed from start to finish. They went above and beyond your regular tradesmen. Their customer care was exceptional when dealing with an elderly parent and made the whole job seem easy. They knew what was required and got on with it. Would highly recommend.

What to check before you hire

Worth checking yourself
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour. A vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials'. Agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated. Protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
