AN OUTSTANDING JOB !
I used First Choice Fencing last year to replace a garden fence with 5 panels which had a hit n miss trellis top part. It looked fantastic. So this year once I'd saved up some cash I got them back to do the other side of the garden the exact same, with a plain panel on the end. I also got then to remove some old railway sleepers in the front garden and put in two new rows. Thet found a massive wasp nest which put us behind a day until it got sorted. I got them to custom make some half size panels with a pointed centre for a brick wall on the outside of the garden. Yes 3 separate jobs. Each of which I'm totally thrilled with. The workmen certainly reach great standards in quality installation and the actual production of fencing as it's all made in house. The teams are very friendly, always polite and a credit to the Company. Its certainly making people look twice and admire my garden. I'm so pleased with the outcome and will sing your praises to anyone who asks where it's from. A complete quality job.šā¤

I thoroughly recommend this company.

First Class Job
First Choice replaced some of the fencing in our garden. The outcome could not have been better. The two people who did the installation were very professional and hardworking. They turned up right on time, done an absolutely brilliant job in installing the fence and cleaned up afterwards. I could not have been more pleased and have no hesitation in recommending them. A very satisfied customer - Alan Collins

Lovely new fencing, looks great.
Thank you First Choice Fencing for our lovely new fencing, we chose feather edge panels with a foot of trellis on top. So glad we chose your company, Rob arranged a time suitable for his dad Dave to come over, we had 4 quotes in all from 4 different companies, FCF wasn't the cheapest or the most expensive, but Dave gave such a professional detailed quote and a small booklet that we decided to go ahead. The fitting team Jeff and Shaun were so friendly & their work was so neat and clean, the panels are top quality and treated and are a nice colour. We would recommend this family run company without a doubt & would definitely use them again.

Would definitely recommend!!
We would highly recommend First Choice Fencing and will definitely use again. The guys were excellent, from the very first contact with Dave to give an estimate, the guys in the office and Jeff and Shaun who put the fence up. A really professional, knowledgeable and friendly team who certainly know their stuff. We cannot praise them enough. Jeff and Shaun certainly went above and beyond in clearing all ivy and shrubbery and taking the old fence away. Then, putting the new fence up with new posts and gravel boards. They also had a wasp nest to contend with. They did an excellent job. We have them booked in already to replace our shed. Would definitely recommend!!

Professional, friendly fencing competitively priced
We were thrilled with the 10 fence panels, concrete posts and gravel boards that were put up. The old fencing was removed and shrubbery cleared prior to installation. All team members were extremely professional, courteous and we have received numerous compliments from friends on the quality of the fences. Would highly recommend and will definitely use First Choice Fencing again.

Second excellent job from First Choice Fencing
We had a new fence and a few new fence posts provided by First Choice in May 2022. The guys were excellent, from the very first contact from Dave to give an estimate to the completed job. A really professional, friendly team who really know their business. This year we wanted some advice about what to do with some of the fence posts that we did not have replaced last time. Excellent advice given by Dave and the job was completed within a few days. Brilliant result, very happy. Would recommend to anyone. Look no further for any fencing job.

A fabulous fence !!
A superb finish. The quote was given a month before and everything was explained very clearly. 3 men come today and put in a huge effort. There was a lot of old ivy to clear as well as getting rid of an old rotting fence.. the team were friendly and polite. They were clearly very knowledgeable and respected your garden surroundings. They measured everything precisely and didnt mind when I asked them to swap over one of the panels as one had a natural mark in the wood so I wanted it away from the house more. I'm so impressed and the neighbours are too. A quality job worth every penny

Third of three garden fencing jobs
We have recently moved home and decided to upgrade our garden fencing in stages - so we have used First Choice Fencing on 3 occasions. We have found them to be efficient, prompt, reliable and helpful. Their products and workmanship are both top notch and they did not at any point try to push us into having any work done that we were doubtful about. One of the jobs took a little longer than anticipated - and there was never any question of increasing the agreed charge for the work done. We are delighted with that work and we would recommend them without hesitation.

Excellent service - we love the result
We got quotes from five fencing companies, all in the same ball park. We picked First Choice Fencing because they seemed professional (for example, they gave us a written quote) and said they could guarantee supply as they make their own fencing. We were not disappointed with our decision. The two fencers worked very hard for two days to remove our old fence panels and install new ones (including concrete bases). They also helped tidy up a few things in the garden that had been left by the previous owners. The result was a neat garden with good quality fences - it is now our own little oasis and we love spending time out there. We also received excellent service from the central office. When we asked the fencers to install an extra panel for us, the office called to confirm what the cost would be before they went ahead so we were not surprised with any additional fees. We only have one garden(!) so won't be calling them back to do any more work (at least for a few decades) but would heartily recommend them to others.

First Choice by name, first choice by nature.
Delighted we opted for First Choice. They gave us an estimate within a few days of calling and turned up on time to begin the work. Shaun and Geoff were courteous, professional and completed the task of removing and replacing one hundred and twenty foot of fence in a few days. The workmanship is fantastic and will last twenty five years. Thanks you guys, you did a great job.

Excellent service and shed
I used First Choice Fencing to build me a concrete base and supply and fit a 10 x 8 Apex Shed. I found the company to be professional, responsive and value for money. My job was done in two stages, firstly a concrete base was made for our new shed and then after a new wooden shed 10 x 8 supplied and fitted professionally. Rich in the office kept us informed always and liaised with us on both the jobs. Money was taken after each work was fully completed. I found this company honest, committed and professional all the way. I have a new shed which us built incredibly well and looks and feels quality. I would recommend First Choice Fencing for sheds and give them 5 stars for excellent services.

First rate service that has transformed our garden.
From beginning to end an excellent service. The new fences replaced a mixture of old fencing with wooden posts in concrete and concrete slabs. The quotation given for the work was the final invoice price. The work to be done was discussed when the quotation was given and nothing was deemed a problem in the removal of the old fence and slabs set in concrete. The day prior to the booked date we were notified that the work would go ahead. Two fencers arrived on time and worked very hard continually throughout the first three days of the work, on the fourth day one fencer returned to point and make good the paths in our garden and that of the neighbours. Both fencers were friendly and helpful throughout and left the garden clean and tidy. We are delighted with their work and highly recommend their service.

first choice = first class
Just had our fencing completed, arrived when they said they would, got on with the job, completed on time and cleared up afterwards, quality of the panels and gates (we had two double gates made and fitted) was excellent, would highly recommend this company. Considering the amount of fencing, the building of two bespoke double gates and clearance (Ivy trunks like trees), I feel that it was extremely good value for money.

Overall incredibly pleased that I went with this company - I trawled Trusted Trader for fencing companies (as I've never had to use one before and had been given any recommendations by friends....), and First Choice had stellar reviews. Rich sorted out a quoted very quickly, and was able to give a date that wasn't six months down the line. On the day, a 2-man team arrived and put in one hell of a shift to complete the job in one day. Not only were they a couple of good blokes they worked hard in preparing the area (there was a lot of undergrowth to get rid of), removing the debris, and installing a solid fence. Very happy. Will use First Choice again.

Remove old garden fence and posts and replace with new posts and new wood panelled fencing.
The most professional company I have encountered in a very long time. From the initial quote, all the way through to tidying up at the end, they exceeded my expectations. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Great work
I had 2 fences replaced and a new gate fitted, they did the fences first which was quick then the gate. the job took about 2 hours even though I was told half a day which was good and all old fencing and gate taken away. The only problem was when it was windy the fence moved so was noisy which they come and fixed promptly just needed clipping. I recommend this company as I have used them 3 times now.

Great job!
Today was the 2nd time i have used First choice. The first time for my divide fence in 2017 and today for the back fence and door. As usual, the company and the guys that turned up were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Nothing is too much trouble! They updated me through the day with different aspects of the job, E.g pointing out that the alley way had a slope to it and 2 choices of how the fence would be for height due to the slope. They tidied up after them and i felt went above and beyond what their job asked of them. I would definitely recommend them for quality fences and a great service. Thanks to Mike and Paul.

They confirmed the dates for the commencement of the work as promised, arrived on time and completed the work in a courteous & efficient manner. The quality of the work looks to be excellent.

New Garden Fence
We chose First Choice Fencing on the recommendation of our neighbour and Which Trusted Traders. The men removed our old fence taking care not to damage the shrubs and climbers attached to it. New fence erected in under a day and much sturdier than the old one. Garden left clean and tidy. Kept to time and budget. Pleasure to deal with.

Garden work
Following having our decking done by First Choice we thought we would have the garden completely stripped out with new sleepers for flower beds and turf. WOW what can I say again they have blown me away with the fabulous work. The office checked a few days ago that I was still happy to proceed - I was. Then this morning the guys rang to let me know time of arrival. As we are all aware the heat today was beyond belief hot yet they worked tirelessly completing the most wonderful results. I would highly recommend this company to you all. From office to guys on the ground they are fabulous. Prices are competitive to the work carried out and no money is taken until the work is completed and you are satisfied with the outcome. Thanks First Fencing - we will be back for the front drive.

I never ever write reviews but felt i just had to for this company. We had a gate made by them and fitted yesterday along with existing fencing adjusted and trellis put on top. Richard kept me informed from the very beginning, this company is obviously puts customer service first which makes such a difference. Being relaxed with a trader on your property is not always possible when you don't know them but you could and watching them work you knew they were going to do a lovely neat and tidy finish to the job. We would definitely use them again and recommend to family and friends.

A 110% SATISFIED CUSTOMER!!!
Chose this firm just by pure chance as I wanted a couple sheds for the garden, boy, did I make the correct choice!! Had a couple of guys come and build the 2 bases over a 2 day period, they were both hard working, polite, informative to what they were going to be doing, tidy, attention to detail and committed to the job in hand...... Then a week later had another couple of guys come to put the 2 sheds up and had exactly the same treatment as to the previous guys the week before.. Totally satisfied with the outcome and have 2 high quality sheds now standing proud at the bottom of our garden. Have a project for the summer of next year, so First Choice Fencing will be receiving my phone call.... So keep to your standards as these sort of firms are very rare in this day and age.....

Came as arranged to quote, discussed possible solutions and left quote straight away. No excessive wait to undertake work, telephoned before arrival; used floor covering where walking through house. Worked cheerfully without a break all day in appalling weather (snowing) doing rather more than specified but discussing options for problems. Cleared up tidily.

Great company, would not hesitate to use again.
First Choice fitted a set of double gates for us and we could not be happier with the quality of their product and work. We found that unlike other companies, they provided an approximate quote over the phone based on the measurements provided for the work required. They then followed up with a firm price and advice on visual inspection, which was actually the same as the price quoted over the phone. Their communication is excellent both on the phone and via email, there was always someone available at the office whenever we had questions to ask (and they were familiar with the job). The gates were fitted with minimum fuss, to exact requirements and the area was left clean and tidy. Highly recommended!
