3 Bin Store + Bespoke Scooter Shed...

We purchased a 3 bin store and a bespoke piece, to look like a 3 bin store but actually to be used as a children's scooter and bike shed. The quality of the product is outstanding and looks great. I am very happy to recommend Contemporary Fencing

I approached contemporary fencing after searching for fencing for my new build. They were quick to provide me with a quote and I placed an order. The product is high quality and looks fantastic. Chuffed with my new garden.

Tired of chasing

I have been chasing since 5 July for an accurate quote for the supply and install of fence panels. I am torn between two different species of wood at 1.8m (2m is the maximum legal height for my garden). I have been told they only come in 2.10 and need to be cut down. However, they are clearly for sale at 1.8m on the website. It also feels like I am being pushed towards the redwood which another reviewer has complained about.

They are also not deducting the survey charge properly. Only £160 not £192 (£160 plus VAT) is deducted from the order which means they are overcharging customers and inflating their own VAT recovery. VAT incorrectly charged is not recoverable so it seems reckless to operate in this way. HMRC will assess for the monies plus interest.

I just want my money back. The surveyor was nice but only took measurements. He brought along no samples to review so not the best use of my time or money.

He said the job would take 2 days but the installation quote states 3 days.

Did contact the Managing Director on Sunday but no response.

Hi there, Thank you for your review. I am sorry you feel that we did not perform well and deserve a one star review. As I have previously tried to explain to you. We list all items without vat on our invoices and quotes the vat is added at the end, together with a grand total including vat. This is standard practice. So us charging you £160 + vat is exactly the same as us refunding you -£160 + vat. Our accounts are audited by professional accountants. I have tried several times to explain this to you. Regarding your quotes you had 9 different quotes from us in total. We did our very best to offer something you liked within your budget. I think the confusion on how VAT is applied may have been the main factor here.
do this on your calculator! £160 + vat is £192.00 and -£160 + vat is -£192.00 hope this helps.

Shambolic Non-Existent Communication

When did it become 'normal' for companies providing any service you can think of not to return calls, e-mails and texts? It has just become intolerable. Well over two weeks ago at the request of the guy on sales, I sent drawings and photos of a slatted screen project I was undertaking in order to get a price on materials. I left voicemails, phoned, e-mailed and all of it yielded nothing. I've since gone to another company where I got a quote in two days and accepted the order which is being delivered this week. There will come a time - eventually - when companies like CF will realise that poor - non existent - communication is losing them business. Shambolic.

Hi Andrew, Sorry for the delay in responding to this one star review we have just discovered it. Firstly please let me apologise sincerely that we did not respond with a quote in a timely manner. I have looked into this and it seems that we experienced a high level of enquiries during July and struggled to deal with them all. We have since implemented a ticketing system that means every job is tracked so that we can be sure no one gets missed. I hope that your fencing project was a success.

Venetian panelling

We ordered some panelling, posts and accessories for a domestic garden project. Slight delay with manufacturing as their raw materials were not up to their standards, they informed me of the delay in advance. I then changed my order which they accommodated. Panels now delivered and installed, excellent quality product, very high quality finish and look stunning. I would definitely recommend them.

Great company

They were incredibly helpful and kind.
I messed up my order and they told me they wanted all their customers to be happy so to reorder what I needed and they would collect the order I had got wrong. So patient, so kind and worth waiting for. I'm so happy with finished result.
Highly recommend this company and their customer service

Can't recommend CF too highly - delighted!

We bought a bespoke cedar bench with back that CF made to our design (it's now on their website for sale as they liked it so much!) We are delighted with the finished product. CF were absolutely brilliant throughout the process, nothing was too much trouble - they were patient with the design process, held onto the bench and delivered it once the wall was rendered and painted. Every communication with Gary, Lee and Dominic was a pleasure and I would not hesitate to recommend them. We like the bench so much, we have also ordered gates from them and can't wait to have them delivered.

Quality product

We searched for over a year to find the right fencing that would compliment our gym building and decking areas. We wanted a quality product that would offer privacy, but not to make the garden feel any smaller. We even considered constructing our own panels because we simply could not find anything that we both agreed on. Contemporary fencing offered out their new white lime cedar panels and we both instantly knew this was exactly what we had been looking and waiting for. Delivery was quick, customer service was great and installation was straight forward. The product is great quality and really is the last piece of the garden we were hoping for. It’s everything and more than we imagined it to be.

Highly recommended

We ordered two sets of cedar panels. The overall quality of the panels is 5*. We had some issues with the delivery where one panel was damaged during transport. Gary from the customer service was superb and arranged the replacement with the next day delivery so that we do not have any delays.
Thank you very much.

Top marks for the beautifully made fencing

I cannot recommend contemporary fencing highly enough. From ordering nothing was too much trouble, they went out of their way to speed up delivery. The product is incredibly well made, even the delivery man was charming. I went for the Venetian redwood fence panels which looks very smart - also very well priced (especially in comparison to wickes and travis and many other wood yards that came up in Google) they do larch too if your budget stretches. 10/10

Siberian larch fencing

Just had my new fence fitted by Contemporary Fencing. It’s Siberian Larch with slotted posts and Larch gravel boards. I needed a special bespoke sloping end panel to make a lovely neat end to the fence. I must say how thrilled I am with the finished product which is genuinely stunning. Most certainly top quality and a brilliant choice. The service I received throughout has been first class. Prompt polite workman who clearly take enormous pride in their work. I recommend this company wholeheartedly.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Mis-selling and mis-pricing is what I would most rate this company on.

Here is my personal experience. I ordered Scandinavian Redwood Battens - about 180 of them at just under £4 each. Delivery costs extra £110. The business claims on their website these Scandinavian battens come from privately owned forests in Russia and Scandinavia. Instead, what I got was cheap timber battens (that I could have easily sourced from a B&Q or Homebase) that had been painted in redwood color. No where close to their description or pictures of this product on the website.

Filed a complaint and after a week of back & forth, finally managed to speak to the Director who bluntly challenged me to find similar battens at a cheaper price elsewhere. I don't have an issue about the price, I had an issue about what was shipped to me versus what I thought I was buying from the website. I could have got my fencing job done at half the cost of what I eventually ended up paying.

If I were you, I would avoid buying from this business at all costs. I would prefer to pay a bit of a premium and actually get what I am ordering on the website.

Will never use this business again.

Hi Rahul, I am sorry it taken so long to respond to your review. We only just found this account on trustpilot and were unaware it was here. Most people review us on Google. I believe that I responded to this exact review before. You left it on our google reviews account. I responded to you and explained everything and you decided to withdraw the review so I was quite surprised to find this here. Any way as I explained before the issue you had with our redwood battens was that you were expecting them to be naturally red. As discussed we have now made it much clearer that our Scandinavian Redwood battens are actually pressure treated timber and the colour is part of this treatment process. We did offer you a full refund and to collect the battens but you decided to keep them. I hope your fencing is doing well and wish you all the best. from the CF team

High Quality Bench Seating

I very rarely write reviews but had some cedar bench seats delivered today and they are really lovely! Beautifully crafted pieces of furniture, visibly made with care and attention to detail. They cost more than I had initially wanted to spend but you definitely get what you pay for in this case - these are fantastic quality, can’t wait to have them installed next week.

Hi Louisa,
Thank you for your lovely review. Sorry for the delay in responding we have only just discovered this trustpilot account! I am so glad you are happy with your Cedar benches. You are correct our joiners love what they do and take care and pride in their work, they actually argue over who builds the next bench! They seem to prefer building them to gates! More fun apparently! Kind Regards The CF team

Bought cedar wood battens

Bought cedar wood battens from contemporary fencing. Expensive wood of which 3 battens split on installation. Disappointingly the company would not replace the battens for free. Not great customer service given how much the original order value was.

Hi David, Thank you for your review. Apologies it took so long to respond, we only just discovered this Trust pilot account. I am sorry that you were not happy with our service. I have spoken with our sales team and it seems the reason we did not replace the split battens was that they split when a nail was put into them. We can not replace items that are damaged during installation. We recommend drilling a pilot hole in the batten before screwing or nailing especially when near the end of a batten as they will tend to split, this is the same with most other woods too.
Kind Regards the CF team
