Has anyone use the fencing kit before? apparently, they will come to measure the fence, cut every piece for you, all you have to do is, quote " dig the holes, put cement, install them yourselves".  You can choose different types of picket, and can choose pine to merbau to etc.. Saves on labor cost. Sounds quite easy, but really???

Does anyone have contacts…[Read more]
