What an absolute joke of a company. Do not ever use this fencing company. They are the most unprofessional business I have ever dealt with. I have been waiting 14 weeks to have my fence completed by them. They did some of the side fences 14 weeks ago and have not been back to finish the jobs after numerous “dates” they gave me that it would be completed and they would be back just to have them never show up. My dog has been kept inside this whole time as we cannot let him out and our property has been broken in to.

I have called and called and each time assured they would be back “next week” but they never show up.

I have 4 emails from the company with different dates that they would be back, yet they still never show up. My builder is now chasing them on my behalf as I seem to be getting no where.

Use anyone else but this terrible company.

I had my new house fenced recently. The work was done by a contractor hired by this company who worked from early moning until almost dark, and did a satisfactory job. The reason I give these guys such a bad review is due to their poor customer service. We were originally given a contractors number who never, ever picked their phone up or returned our call after leaving messages. We would have, at this stage, gone with another company had we not left a deposit. Calling the company directly was a waste of time, as they told us they would get the contractor to call without result. After the work was "completed", there was a 25cm gap between the fence and the garage wall. After asking why, the contractor (not the original guy that did not answer his phone) told us that he carried out the work as per the plan. We contacted the business, and were told that it would cost over $100 more for that panel. We were originally quoted a price to fully secure the property. It then took two weeks of waiting and several phone calls, and were eventually told someone would be there the next day. One week later, still no panel. We called, and again, someone would be there the next day. Another whole week goes past, and after another call, I was told the measured panel was damaged in a car accident. The work finally got done, and the panel used was a peice of sheet metal, crudely painted and roughly cut to fill the gap. Many of the panels used (colourbond) looked like they had been bouncing around in the back of a ute, badly scuffed and scratched, with most of the bolts rounded off, making removal of a panel for gardening equipment very difficult. I'm not super particular about that stuff, being handy myself, but the overall service and lack of care was very poor, especially on the reception/business end.

The company gave a quote which arrived the next day from when I requested it. They were prompt and efficient in their work and complied with all the intricate requirements of my development.

Approximate cost: $5350
