John B.
This is the first time I have used Knight Fencing Ltd. I accepted a thorough quotation from their Contracts Manager Shane Hammond for the following. "To supply and install 7 linear meters of new 1200mm high green chainlink fencing to be joined in with an older existing chainlink fence complete with new green posts and end strainer concreted into the ground." The work involved the strimming of the boundary and the removal of part of an existing established tree. All the work was completed on one working day by Zac and Reece to a very high standard. All the old fencing, posts, garden waste and tree material were removed in a thorough and careful way. The garden was left in good condition. Zac and Reece worked very conscientiously and offered additional practical advice which I accepted. I believe the overall project was good value for money and would consider approaching Knight Fencing Ltd again in the future. John Blackwell.

We have just had a close board fence constructed and found the company efficient, very nice to deal with and the men constructing the fence did an excellent job and were a credit to the company.
Cassie H.
Knight fencing team arrived on time and well presented. They were very friendly and only too happy to discuss what was to be done and they made sure that we were happy. They worked well and repaired our fence and installed a support pole for a large tree. They were quick and very tidy and even sharpened my garden shears that were blunt. I would definitely recommend this company for any garden repair work.
Margaret G.
Very happy with the service we received from Knight Fencing. Arrived on time and installation of garden fencing completed satisfactorily. Would recommend.
Michelle O.
Requested a quote, came round to quote in pretty quick time. I was happy with the quote. They had a cancellation so came round within days to complete the work. Very, very efficient. Really happy with the work carried out Would happily recommend.
Anthony R.
Have now used for a 3rd time to replace aging fences and fit new gates. Always a good job done!!
Marion S.
Very pleased with the service from Knight Fencing. From the visit to see property and receiving my quote, to the work carried out both men very polite and experienced . All work excellent.
Laura S.
Terry from Knight Fencing completed a 22m 6ft high fence and gate installation for us in April 25. From the initial quote Terry went above and beyond to suggest clever solutions to how we wanted the fence put in, eventually helping us to settle on a trellis to keep the view from the end of the garden. When completing the work he and Sam arrived promptly and worked so hard all day to get the work done. They have done an incredibly professional job, the fencing looks fantastic and they left the garden, if anything, tidier than it was before they arrived! I would highly recommend them and thank you for doing such a great job, we can now enjoy the garden without worrying about our dogs escaping!
Gary C.
The guys did a great job replacing our worn out gates. The new gates look superb. I thoroughly recommend them.
Martin D.
Straightforward job but very efficiently done. The team arrived while we were out but contacted us by phone and were happy to carry on as requested.
