Recent ratings vary sharply, with several excellent Colorbond installs sitting alongside three complaints about communication after the job or deposit. The positive reviews mention Matt, Jess and a crew that cleans up and comes back to fix small flaws. If you're spending decent money on a fence, confirm the crew will return for punch-list items before you pay the final invoice. Ask for a written timeline if you're paying a deposit.

Best for: straight timber or Colorbond fence replacements on rural and acreage blocks, whole-fence installs in a day, and projects where you can be clear about the scope upfront.

About M&J Fencing & Landscaping

Matt runs the show at M&J, with Jess coordinating jobs and keeping timelines moving. They mostly handle timber and Colorbond fencing around Ipswich and the Brisbane Valley. Reviews mention whole fences replaced in a single day, which is handy if you're on a tight schedule. Some customers say they came back to fix small things without an argument. The recent feedback is all over the place though, so your experience likely hinges on clarity at the quote stage. Put everything in writing, including retaining walls and gate specs, before you pay a deposit. They work as a small crew with Matt on the tools, which suits straightforward rural and acreage fencing jobs.

Best for: straight timber or Colorbond fence replacements on rural and acreage blocks, whole-fence installs in a day, and projects where you can be clear about the scope upfront.
