Highlights
"Stuart and his team have just supplied and fitted railings to an extension I'm having built. My builder is very impressed by the quality and efficiency of their work and as far as I'm concerned the railings look great. Communication with Stuart has also worked perfectly from the moment I first contacted him and his fee was very competitive. Easily 10 out of 10!"
"I contacted New Forest Metal Works enquiring if they could make an Island Worktop for my new Kitchen. Stuart was very helpful and knowledgeable guiding me to the best type of metal to suit the purpose. Because of the size of the Island it was not practical to bring it to his workshop so he and a colleague came to my house to ensure the top fitted correctly and all the corners could be cut and welded so that they had a curve. I could not be more pleased with the outcome and the attention to detail. I would not hesitate to recommend New Forest Metal Works."
"New Forest Metalwork have just completed the extension of our balcony. Stuart and all his team were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. The quality of the work is excellent and we are delighted with the result."
