Your letterbox is great! Speak with Michael at Intracut in Bayswater, my dad has been getting metals of all varieties made up from there for a few years now. Only took 2 days to design and cut for me. Excellent prices too Building again . . with Redink Pre-start 04/12 Keys - 03/13 Finishing off. . .

I contacted them 2 weeks ago and they told me today it will be another week plus to measure and then 6 weeks after that to install! That puts me into mid July or a month after handover until we get fences up /quote] I was told 6 - 8 weeks as we also have a brick side fence. They started 2 weeks after I called them though. So maybe you'll get lucky as well Thanks for the reply, spoke to LWP today and complained to them about it as they have guidelines that say fences must be installed from 6 weeks of first contact with them. Something they don't seem to be doing and aren't letting LWP know they are running behind. Hopefully we will see some fences soon!

I can't settle for a standard letterbox now though and let the area down... What to do??? Haha It's going to have to be a large scale project of some sort for you.

Can I ask you material used for your garden bed edging? I love the look. It's metal edging, the landscapers use it but I sourced the same edging online in Perth to buy from the company and not one of those large hardware stores that you can get it from. It's an aluminum as far as I can tell Building again . . with Redink Pre-start 04/12 Keys - 03/13 Finishing off. . .

Did your free landscaping include the side verge as well? Did they do the pebble path for you as well, or did you do that yourself first?
