:) Hi there,
I'm way down in the South of England, so sorry no I can't recommend anyone. :(
Maybe have a go at it yourself? :unsure: I have, bit of hard work digging 2 feet down for the posts, though with some 'postfix' and a level and a little Mstr LP helper. Bingo, Bob's your Uncle all done :thumbs: Did it over a few weeks though and by doing it myself, saved loads.
Some DIY stores have little booklets showing you how to do it, or maybe have a look on 'google' for some online tips. :)
You won't know yourself once the fencing is up!! Pure bliss and privacy.

Hi there
LP is right, you can save yourself loads by diy. Do you have any family or mates that can help you? Have an erect a fence party :D fence up then drinks to christen it ;)
Do you have a Wickes store nearby? I got a flyer through and they quoted £250 for 6X5 panels, trellis for the top, posts fence clips, spikess and everything else you needed. That was for 13m. I don't know what any other DIY store prices are lioke, I haven't looked properly yet. Might be worth finding out about.
Take care

Have you tried your local paper adverts.
There are some in the Durham Advertiser under gardening services.
You can always ask for references or addresses where they have done a job to see what they are like.
There are at least 10 adverts in this weeks paper here and yours should be the same amount I would think.
Good luck. Hope you find someone decent and reasonable.
