  "Like the last review, I too have had several attempts to make contact, can only get him via voice mail, or texts , and each text contradicts the last story he texted.
  Our gate is just 3 months out of warranty and for 2 1/2 weeks I have been trying to get my gate fixed for my tennants .
  The tenants have to at great inconvenience manually slide the heavy steel gate each day to get in and get out, and the unit is on a busy road, so it is most annoying to have to not have the service we… require within a reasonable time frame.

  "We had leading edge build us a steel fence and gate, while the project had several issues, the end result was quite good. However I have since discovered that the motor for the auto gate was installed poorly and Andy has refused to rectify the problems. I now need to find a new company to reinstall the motor as the gate now slips on the track and and the motor mounts are loose. Andy refuses to take my calls and does not accept responsibility for the poor workmanship of his contractors. Avoid at… all costs."

  "Andy is a very professional tradesman. His work is of an extremely high standard and he is very particular that the finished job is to a very exacting standard. He has no hesitation in bringing back in his sub contractors if he feels that the standard of workmanship is not the quality he would like. He rebuilt a pool wall and put in a gate for us - not an easy job, but the finished work is fantastic. I would happily recommend him for any exterior hard construction work."

  "Have used them twice now for some handrail support brackets custom made to my design. The first time was in Dec 2006, and although I didn't expect it they had them made, finished and ready before xmas. The quote was very competitive & prompt also. The next job, after the xmas break, took a bit longer but I put this down to being a busy little workshop at that time. Rob was great in helping out in making the design workable. Recommended."

  "Cannot rate these guys highly enough.Andy was fantastic, offering us multiple ideas and advice on set up and timber options for our replacement deck and working hard to meet our budget for the project.Quote was extremely competitive and Andy gladly discussed price Vs timber selection etc to ensure the project met our budget and requirements.
  Joe, the builder, put in 12 hour days to get the project completed and could not find fault with his workmanship and positive attitude.He even handled the… dog stealing hammers / nails etc with a smile.
  
  These guys would have to be the best tradespeople we have dealt with on our major renovation project.
  
  I would not hesitate to recommend these guys to anyone."

  "We had a deck and fence built and bi-fold doors installed. Their price was outstanding, a builder had quoted the same price just to build the deck! The deck and door install were excellent. Andy, the foreman, was very helpful but we had a number of issues with the quality of work on the fence. Warping timber, corner cutting (non- galvinised nails used in places just one example) and a general poor finish on the fence were disappointing. When raised with Andy he was happy to put these right at… no further cost but there are still a few minor niggles that weren't fixed. Andy also explained that one of the contractors who worked on the fence was no longer employed by them due in part to these issues. We experienced some delays as they had another big job on at the same time. They seemed to be a relatively new company who were going through a few teething problems, hopefully those would be sorted by now.
  
  Would I use them again? Not too sure, but I would definately get them to quote on any future work and if the price was good enough accept that I would need to manage the job and keep an eye on the quality. Worth a look."

  "We had a deck built by them about 5 years ago (great job) and they were one of three quotes we had for our fence. Our lawn was a mess when they left but they had a shocking run with the weather. It took them a two weeks to complete the job when they said it would take one week but we were really impressed with the finished result.
  The two builders we had were great guys to deal with and we would certainly use them again
