10 Great Service
Posted 6 days ago
We recently had our gate installed by South Coast Fencing Ltd and we couldn’t be happier with the service. The team was friendly, professional, and incredibly efficient. From initial communication to final installation, everything was smooth and stress-free. The craftsmanship is excellent, and the gate looks great. Would definitely recommend them to others looking for reliable and high-quality work.Verified reviewerJob location: SO5010 Completely satisfied with new gate

Poor planning and comms A month after accepting quote still no install date given. Chased and told to wait 2 more weeks for date. Chased again told to wait again. Then given a date with 1wk notice. I accepted, they didn't read my email or missed it. Slight issue with one panel, told they would replace boards. Told someone would come on Fri, waited in and noone showed up, no call/message. A few weeks later I was given 3hrs notice for someone to come round. Replaced boards are a different colour, told they will change to match, not sure but just want to be done now. Installer Frank was greatVerified reviewerJob location: SO22Response from South Coast Fencing Ltd
I would like to say this is the first bad review we have had ever!. You have been fully aware of our lead times and have had clear communication with us. The boards are new and have not been in the sun yet hence the colour difference. Best Wishes.

Job location: SO18I got 3 quotes, South Coast Fencing Ltd came in slightly cheaper but looked up their reviews and they were superb, that was the clincher for me. From initial quote visit to the installation, the communication, products and quality of work was superb. Their installer turned up as planned and grafted all day in the rain. Highly recommended and neighbour is now likely to use them also.
