Looking for Someone - Flat Panel Fences Installation

Recommended Posts

Hi


Can anyone recommend someone with experience in putting in flat panel fences? I have ordered 3 but the company (Premier Sheds) don't deliver. The person they referred has given me a quote of GBP 320 (for just delivery and installation) which seems too high.


Appreciate other referrals so I can at least cross check his quote.


Thanks

Do you mean Premier Sheds by Streatheam Common station? They certainly delivered all my fence panels and two sheds...

?320 for delivery and installation is high-ish but not outrageous.


Last year after the storms we needed a new fence... landscape gardeners were charging over 1K to supply and install 5m of fencing. So we ended up getting an odd-job man to put up some basic posts and panels. I think he charged around ?200 labour, and the thing lasted about one month before it started falling apart. He also messed us about by not showing up when promised, not being around when the materials were delivered, etc.


In hindisght I'd happily pay an extra ?100 or so for somebody who actually knows what they're doing and comes recommended by the supplier.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
