Me again
We have to get quite a bit of fencing completed by the end of April.
Just started looking online.
Can anyone help with best CS spec & of course best price !
We're based in the South East.
Have bought previously from Mc Veigh Parker which was absolutely fine, just wanted to compare.
Many thanks

If you are using Creosoted timber, ask McVeighs for the BBH timber. That way you know at least it is genuine Creosote and UK treated.

If you are after UC4 then it's pot luck. Country Supplies at High Wycombe will deliver to you

There is a man near Basingstoke splitting Chestnut stakes etc. But you would need to collect them unless ordering a lorry load as he doesn't have a wagon himself.

Just use clipex from Mcveigh P

Might be expensive to start with, but you won't be saying that in 30 years time when they are still standing. The ones we purchased 10 years ago are still great.......... the wooden posts we used at the same time have all had to have new posts !

We'll probably end up back at Mc Veigh TBH, you're right !
