Very efficient, both in terms of customer service and fitting. Went out of their way to help get the fencing installed before scheduled date. Fitters were polite and helpful and professional in approach. Work was neat and tidy. Very pleased with job that was done. Highly recommended and will use them again

From quote to installation, it has been a pleasure working with Tarmec and Croft. Jane was so patient, Andy so helpful during measurement and the installation crew didn't leave a trace apart from some lovely new gates! The quality is top notch and they are really reasonably priced for what you receive. We had our installation date booked in early and even though there is a long lead in time - it's well worth the wait! Installed on time and they even managed to beat the rain! 100% recommending to anyone who needs gates and fencing.

Really pleased with the service that Tarmec and Croft offered us in first of all coming to do a proper visit and subsequently following it up with a very quick quote. Email communications were excellent at all times and the date for the work to be done was booked well in advance and the work was then completed on the original dates that were given. The installed fence was completed very professionally and without any fuss. Both workmen simply got on with the task, leaving us completely satisfied after their two days of work. I can only give them praise and wish all other companies would operate

Superb service from Tarmec and Croft Fencing. My bespoke driveway gates look great, quality build. The automation is simple but effective and extremely versatile and easy to use. Jane was great from start to finish and Andy and his colleague were punctual and did a fine Instalation. I highly recommend this company because they do what they say they are going to do. Pricing was really competitive and I am really pleased with the end product.

From the quotation process, to booking-in, to the work upon completion; stellar service. We ordered a bespoke climbing frame and are delighted with the end-result. Whilst there is now a significant lead time, that is probably because they are so good at what they do and so reasonably priced. They are well worth the wait!
