“As with other people who have posted feedback, we have found dealing with this company extremely difficult. We had the following problems: - They were very slow, It took the job over three months to sort out and complete. - They were poor communicators. They never got back to us and we ended up having to call them. - We were passed around to different people as people left the company or went on leave (note:we were never told until we rang and asked specifically for these people). Each time”

Highlights
“Dealing with Effective Fencing was somewhere between a nightmare and a farce. They appeared plausible. However, they managed to miss the completion deadline a staggering nine times and then managed to make comical errors like creating metal panels that didn't actually fit between the posts they had installed, or bringing panels that didn't match each other. One would hope that after managing to be that woefully late that maybe the fence would actually work Each time the excuse was slightly”
Detailed reviews
This company is best avoided.Extremely difficult to deal with.If anything goes wrong they don't want to remedy the situation.They make alot of promises but don't deliver.
Unbelievably dreadful. Sales consultant seems very knowledgeable and plausible, you sign up and pay a deposit, and then you wait. And wait. And wait. Eventualy a team of morons may turn up and build the wrong fence in the wrong place, proceeding at a glacially slow place, and using the cheapest and ****tiest materials money can buy.If you use these clowns you are entering a world of pain.
They quoted one job and did a different job, but charged us the initial amount that was clear overpriced. I will not use them in the future.

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
In New Zealand, restricted building work must be carried out or supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner, and all electrical, plumbing, gasfitting and drainlaying by a licensed tradesperson (EWRB for electricians, PGDB for plumbers and gasfitters). Check the public register before you hire.
For residential building work of $30,000 or more you are legally entitled to a written contract and a disclosure statement setting out the tradesperson's skills, licences and insurance. Ask for both before work starts.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
