Highlights
"New back and left hand side garden fence installed with a new gate, completed with concrete posts and gravel boards, along with a new picket fence and gate at the front of the property. Tom and his team at Oakland Fencing & Landscapes were brilliant from the start. They were punctual, friendly, hard working and completed the works on time to a very high standard. They also disposed of all the old fencing and tidied up after themselves. We are very happy with the end result and we will be sure to use Tom and his team if required again. We would recommend this firm to any one thinking of having similar works done."

"I was very pleased with the job. It was raining heavily that morning but he kept working and finished on time. I would definitely recommend him to others."

Carefully planned, good quality materials. Courteous and professional people.
I was very pleased with the job. It was raining heavily that morning but he kept working and finished on time. I would definitely recommend him to others.
Thomas was very helpful when deciding what fence would be appropriate for our garden and pricing was competitive as well. Thomas managed to fit us in as well which was also very helpful and the fence was fitted quickly and professionally and looks great. The work was carried out and was to a high standard and they were very clean and tidy leaving no mess, I would recommend them and use them again.
Tom and Dan did a great job in completing our fencing and were hard working and diligent. They also kept me informed of the progress or any potential snags throughout the job.
Tom came by the checkout the work required and was very helpful and gave me great confidence in his work. He was prompt on providing the quote and gave me flexibility in the finished product. He kept me updated on the day of the job (traffic issues) worked throughout the day with little disruption. Very happy with the end results and would highly recommend his company. 5 star rating!
Tom quoted for a small job to replace some gravel boards on our broken fence. Punctual and professional for both the quote and the subsequent work. Job completed to a great standard. Very happy. Would recommend. We are asking Tom to quote for some additional works now.
Tom and Dan were very professional and friendly, did a great job, highly recommend them.
The work undertaken was a reinforcing of older fencing which had become unstable and new fencing once an old hedge had been removed. Tom's initial inspection helped greatly in working out the best cost effective solution and then his quote was competitive. Tom and his father arrived on schedule and on time each day, quickly arranged the site and progressed the work as planned. The standard or work was very high and they were very friendly throughout the project. I would not hesitate to recommend them for any fencing work one might require.
We have used Oakland three times for our pub garden. On all occasions Tom has been fantastic. Excellent communication, quick, reliable, friendly and cleans up afterwards. The fences are fantastic and weren’t easy projects. Highly recommend.
The work required was a new fence with a gate and the lifting and re-laying of a sunken patio. Tom was very polite, gave me a very fair quote and they did an excellent job. I am very happy with the result.
Tom and his team did a fantastic job in very challenging conditions as behind our fence was a bramble jungle which may have defeated other people. We would highly recommend them to anyone, really lovely guys, polite, tidy and extremely hard working!
Tom and his team did a great job, they listened and carried out all that I wanted, consulting me along the way when unexpected problems arose. They took everything in their stride and dealt with all the extra work this involved. The finished garden is exactly how I imagined, and all three, Tom, Dan and Chris were kind, considerate and understanding. They not only left everywhere clean and tidy with my property when the work was finished, they also cleaned the outside path which made all the difference. They were great
Tom and his Dad did a brilliant piece of work. They were polite and courteous. If they hit a problem which affected myself and our neighbours they discussed everything with both of us and in one case when our neighbour was unhappy that one of her plants might be damaged, they worked round it, without it affecting the overall finish of the job. They took down our original fence and tidied up after themselves, taking away every piece of rubbish. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to our family and friends. They were brilliant.
Really impressed by the work Oakland Fencing & Landscape Specialists carried out. We had our patio replaced and extended, which was completed to a very high standard for a fair price. Tom, Dan and Chris were incredibly polite, hard working and efficient throughout the entirety of the job. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is wanting to improve their garden, as they worked tirelessly to ensure the job was completed at a professional standard, no matter what obstacles they came up against. Thank you again to Tom and his team for such brilliant work. Our patio has been transformed into a useable, stunning area and we are incredibly grateful.
Excellent work from Tom and his Dad, very helpful, friendly and engaging which made the whole process easy, worked with us along the way with some additions we wanted, kept us informed and we're delighted with the outcome, highly recommended
completed fencing on two sides of my property measuring approximately 150 metres and fenced my pond with 120 metres of post and wire. They were on site for two weeks did an excellent job.Nothing was too much trouble and they were a pleasure to work with.
Excellent company to work with. Cannot fault the workmanship. Very tidy and clean. Tom and Dan are very personable and friendly. We are so happy with our new decking and would highly recommend them.
Really pleased with Tom and his Dad’s work. Not a straightforward job, but they did it well, a nice straight and level fence. Would definitely recommend.
Tom and his team did an absolutely fantastic job replacing our old patio. It was a challenging job due to access constraints, uneven ground and a few curve balls along the way. The level of professionalism and genuine pride in getting the best possible outcome was clear from the outset and maintained throughout the work. The level of finishing was exquisite which is testament to their attention to detail and craftmanship. The area is completely transformed and better than we could have imagined. We will be getting Oakland back for other jobs in the future and cannot recommend them highly enough. Brilliant landscapers, great communication throughout ... and lovely chaps too.
