Ive had a quote from unbrako panels as advertised in the yellow comic, considerably cheaper than the rest by a good margin.
Has anyone had experience of this company or is it a case of you pay for what you get?
Thanks in advance

we have used there panels both 4" and 6" and have been pleased with them have found it handy that they do 1m 1.2m and 1.5 deep as most jobs have been on a slope so you can step them ,they have always been the most competitive here but found you some times don't get enough sealant

Have tried to get quotes two or three times but they have never bothered to reply, how can they be much cheaper than others as most seem to be good value?

We bought some this time last year. Had the lifting eyes pull out on one and drop it on another, breaking both. I would guess they'd had this before as they changed the eyes on newer panels and replaced my broken ones.

Otherwise, they're were I left them, stood up around a barn. Not had too much pushed against them but what we've done with them has been fine

I had a half load of panels from unbrako before harvest to put around a shed they seem fine, I've had wheat piled against them until today and I can't see any problems.
They was by far the cheapest and I dealt with Tim? I think who's one of the governors. He was really helpful and didn't want paying up front I just gave the lorry driver the cheque.
I'm going to be refurbishing another shed before harvest which will take two loads of panels and he'll be getting my order.

we used them when we put 2 new sheds up last yr including a 120ft retaining wall in the ground good panels good company and they made me some odd size ones with no hassles

we had almost same thing happen here with some panels from a firm in wales and they were not interested and said it would be 4 weeks if we wanted to buy replacements
