<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Before: Phil<\/em>\u2019<\/i><\/span>s fence was unsightly and a safety hazard.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>Homeowner: Phil, from Hutt Valley<\/strong><\/h3><\/div>Q: What was the vision for your project?<\/b><\/p>\n
A: I decided I wanted to move to Australia this year.<\/span><\/p>\nThe fence started falling apart a couple of years ago, and I had it on the backburner. So, when I decided to fix up a few things in the house to prepare it for new tenants, this was one of the first things I chose to get done.<\/p>\n
Two things stood out; it looked unsightly from the other side, as the timber was rotting; and I wanted to improve its safety for kids.<\/p>\n
So, I was looking for something sturdy. I just needed a good solid fence. As you can see, I haven\u2019t even painted it yet.<\/p>\n
Q: What did you look for in a tradie?<\/b><\/p>\n
A: I was looking for a good price and a quality finish.<\/p>\n
When communicating with them, I got a bit of a feel for how easy it might be. From there, they came to quote.<\/p>\n
I ended up with three quotes in the end. One was too expensive for me, and the other two, I could have gone either way. I ended up just choosing one I had a slightly better feel for: Essential Homes Construction.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
