Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Feb 05, 2010 9:14 pm Hi everyone, Handover is approaching soon and we are looking for a fencing company. We need to get timber fences as this is what the estate guidelines states... If you have used a fencing company in the Point Cook area and surroundings and are happy with their work, can you please tell me who you used and how much you paid approximately per metre for a timber fence? Many Thanks! [i]We built in Point Cook and are loving our new house. Re: Fencing companies in Point Cook or surround who did you use? 2Feb 10, 2010 10:41 am We got the details of a fence company called Fenceable Fencing. Has anyone used them? Are you happy with their job? Thanks! [i]We built in Point Cook and are loving our new house. Re: Fencing companies in Point Cook or surround who did you use? 3Feb 10, 2010 11:25 am I used them... I have heard that they used timber with white ant for one of the neighbour in Alamanda (i only over heard someone talking in the gym, not sure if it is true).. Our timber is ok but the installation is just so so... but they are the cheapest i have found Blog - http://clageonewhouse.blogspot.com/ Building Thread - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=10886&hilit=milan I am in, with my husband and my beautiful bunny Re: Fencing companies in Point Cook or surround who did you use? 4Feb 10, 2010 12:13 pm claego I used them...

Are you happy with their job? Thanks! I tried endlessly to get a quote from them and they never bothered to reply. I am in Taylors Hill and using B+A Fencing. He hasnt built the fence yet but service so far has been very good and price was competitive. He listened to EXACTLY what we wanted and will be building what we need/want. So many didnt really listen and I thought forget it.

Are you happy with their job? Thanks! I tried endlessly to get a quote from them and they never bothered to reply. It took me 5 emails to get a quote (i just counted them) They could have asked for the information that they required the first time. And each email was written in a way that suggested that they were either too busy or didnt want the work. Finally, i did get a quote - but I dont have any confidence to use this company. I will be shopping around even if it means paying a few $$$ more. Their slow responses for a simple quote gives me warning signals that perhaps they are not the best company to deal with Re: Fencing companies in Point Cook or surround who did you use? 7Feb 12, 2010 8:12 am Hi, i got a quote about 3 days after fillling in the online form, however, the quote seems to be higher than what other forumers received last year.. maybe their prices have gone up since..

Are you happy with their job? Thanks! We used them and have had no problems at all. I phoned for a quote and was given one over the phone straight away. Our fences have been up for 2+ years and still look great ! Re: Fencing companies in Point Cook or surround who did you 10Dec 12, 2011 1:28 pm just checking on internet for review of this company and found this thread, because my call was picked up then hang up constantly since this morning until now! didn't even have a chance to say hi. Re: Fencing companies in Point Cook or surround who did you 11Dec 13, 2011 5:10 am The two main ones in the area are Fenceable and Jim Fencing (Hoppers I think), saying that we got another guy to do our last side and quality is chalk and cheese. Walk around and you'll see a lot of wobbly, uneven fences....the bigger one seems to just whack them up and bill you. Concrete was hard to get the balance of cost and quality. I got two random quotes and also asked a neighbour who's driveway looked great quality who they had theirs done by. Ended up going with the referral. Just remember everything is negotiable and cash is king. We knocked about $2.5k off the price by doing our homework. Good site for looking at the types of agg. etc the local concreter's tend to use http://www.midwayminimix.com.au/concret ... regate.php Fencing companies in Point Cook or surround who did you use? 12Dec 13, 2011 5:49 am Fenceable did ours in Tarneit and also here. They're easy to deal with, right on the ball $ wise, do what they say they're gonna do, and when they say they're gonna do it. I cannot recommend them highly enough. They also did the hard dealing with our next door neighbors, who were painful but got us a result without the grey hair. Re: Fencing companies in Point Cook or surround who did you 13Dec 13, 2011 8:55 am We have just had out fence done with Fencable. I sent in our plans and the quoted within 48hrs and have been really good. Fence looks great and they were done in about 2 days. I also got a quote from U-need-a-fence adn they were about the same cost. Teh only complaint I would have is that they didn't install the gate at the same time- 10 days after the fence the gate is being installed, bit of a pain as they didn't tell me it wasn't going to be all done together, but hey ho. Re: Fencing companies in Point Cook or surround who did you 14Feb 18, 2012 4:28 pm We used Fenceable fencing. They told me three times the side gate would be installed, until it was installed on the 4th attempt. The gate was then installed 3 meters away from where we requested it, but to top it off, it was installed swinging over a pipe. I know, how intelligent. I then had to call them, send photos and request it to be moved which took another 4 days. Communication started off well, but was terrible in the end. Quality is only barely satisfactory, big chips out and the wood is not the best quality. I would never use them again and wouldn't recommend them to anyone.
