    Came to the job with the right sized fence post, and all the necessary tools, and had the job done in an hour. New fence post seems perfectly sturdy. No complaints.

    This is the second time they have done work for me, first a patio then a large amount of fencing. All completed on time and to a high standard. What I like about these guys I'd that they always make sure they know what you want and then they deliver it. Very happy would use them again.
