Great prices and excellent customer service

I booked decking online, good competitive price for composite decking. They had to order in the decking and kept me updated on delivery. Contacted them to change delivery date and this was not a problem helpful man on phone gave me the date I asked for.
Delivery driver called me before arriving and was friendly and helpful. Great product and excellent service .
