Reviews of Fence Connection

Neil assessed the fence and explained he could mend it, the fence itself was ok it was the supporting posts that had broken at the bottom. He explained what he would do and made sure I understood, we agreed when and the time. Neil came two days earlier than originally planned, as he had a helper which was fine by me. Alex started a bit late in the day due to unforeseen circumstances, then Neil joined him and they stayed and finished it with lights till about 7pm. They cemented concrete posts in at the side of the original wooden ones & bolted together, making it very much stronger and safe, Neil came a couple of days later and took some supports away allowing it to really dry - after he had finished another job in the evening, he asked me to test it to reassure me it was ok.

I had been told I would need a new fence, but obviously I didn't,  a good job well done, Neil is coming back to paint it for me when the weather improves.

Thanks very much Neil & Alex. 

Neil is a lovely gentleman and a pleasure to have working around your home. The fence looks wonderful and although I had a problem with the gate after the recent high winds, Neil attended the same day to fix the issue. He was also complimented on his concrete work! He helped to dispose of some old electrical items from my garage and generally tidy it up.

I would happily use the services of Fence Connection again and would highly recommend them.

Did an absolutely fantastic job! Even though all we needed was a quick, temporary fix to secure the gate, Neil made sure everything was just right and actually looked neat and tidy! Would thoroughly recommend as a dedicated, honest and friendly chap! 

Neil was professional, polite and trustworthy.  He completed the work in good time and to a high standard.

We are so pleased with the finished result, that we have contacted him for some further work that we need carrying out.

I was looking for someone good to fix my garden gate, which had been badly fitted in the first place and had already had one sloppy repair on it. Someone local to me had also let me down after saying that they could do a better second repair on it. Because of this I was looking for someone who was both good and reliable in their dealings with people.

Neil's details on Safe Local Trades say that he is familiar with a whole range of fencing tasks; the reviews from his customers also looked impressive and I hoped that he'd be someone I could also ask for advice on what would be the best thing to do to fix my gate properly.

From our first conversation he was confident that he could do a great job and, after sending a few quick pictures to him, he arranged to come and take a look in person. I was quite appreciative of this as the journey wasn't a short one for him.

After taking a look at the gate and the earlier repair he gave me a detailed idea of what he could do, how long it would take and the costings involved. Soon after that we agreed that he would take the job on.

Neil arrived on the day arranged and was right on time. He started by taking the old gate away and strengthened the gate posts to something that would be much better for the set-up of my garden and the fences on either side. In this, he found an extra task to be done and he readily took care of that for adding to the strength of he finished product. He then built a much stronger new gate for me, used a proper number of gate fittings and made sure that it was very secure.

Neil's workmanship on both the gate and posts was as accurate as could be and this is something I'd not seen with others who'd worked on the gate previously. Having had the gate fail twice since it was installed, the care and attention that Neil put in to everything was great as this was exactly what I was hoping to find. He has produced a solid piece of work that will last.

During all of this Neil was very reliable and thoughtful in the suggestions he made. The construction and finishing of everthing looks great and I now have a gate that fits properly – there's no longer any tugging or shoving and grazed fingers involved when trying to open or close it. I'm delighted with the way everything went and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Neil as someone who will do his utmost to ensure that a good job is always done.

Very happy with the final result. Neil and Alex did a fab job getting the carport built and installed.

Neil and Alex were really thorough and painstaking and the finished job is superb. Path included re-laying two manhole covers in tricky places, Neil solved the problem really well to leave tidy and attractive look. Incredibly flexible in his approach Neil tried hard to deliver exactly what we wanted and we are really pleased with the outcome. He keeps you up to date with all aspects of the job and was always very open to work with on the commercials. Very polite and friendly and has a wonderful dog who got on very well with ours. Would highly recommend Neil, and we are getting him back to quote for our fence.

High quality work; great care and attention to detail. Neil and Alex don't seem to stop working. Lots of very favourable comments.

Thanks - we are delighted. 

To say we are pleased with the fence is an understatement.  Neil did an excellent job even to the fact that our neighbour commented how professional he was, when he was working on two days when we were away from home she was so impressed how he worked so hard and was so professional all of the time.

He is clean and tidy as he works and it always making sure that we were  happy with the job he was doing.

He had a problem with one part of the fence, which we had not even noticed, there was a small gap as one of the panels had been damaged. He pointed it out to us, but did not have time to fix it that day. Neil then came back and ensured it was replaced.

Amazing workmanship and professionalism as I'm sure some workmen would have tried to get away with it.  Not Neil!!

I would recommend Neil to anybody who wants a quality fence.  If you want to know that the job will get done, that you will not have to worry about if you can trust him in your home (we were more than happy to trust him with keys to our home when we were away for two days), that he will turn up when he says he will.  

We are so pleased with the fence as is out neighbour who commented that the fence had made the whole area look so much better and probably put extra value on her house as well.

Thanks to Neil and Alex who did such an incredible job, we are so so pleased with it.

Brian and Marion

BTW your dog is so beautiful too!

Neil is a first class professional fencer. He is a good communicator, timekeeper and a very clean and tidy worker. An excellent job by Neil and Alex. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
