Highly Recommended
A last minute request for a large amount of HERAS Fencing and the team worked hard to get it done. They were fantastic and their after sales service has been exemplary. Delivery drivers were knowledgeable, conscious of the area they were delivering to (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) and stacked everything neatly - and for easy installation. Would absolutely recommend and use again.

Saved the day for a last minute hire
We needed a last minute hire for a job due to being let down and Lakeside were fantastic. We now have an account setup with them and plan to use them in future in place of our current supplier. The set up process was smooth and the staff are really friendly and helpful. Would highlighly recommend.

I was mislead in to believe that their suggestion would help me to use it on my roof.
I have called some day to get even a day refund.
I was charged for a week with no mercy.
I felt scammed
