Good morning, The service I received from Matthew at Emthunzini Woodworks was first class. I had a wooden fence with gate 2m high erected on my property. Looks great. His knowledge of wood preservation is also top notch.

Schalk

Hi Virginia, Everything is great, the gas guys said that the vents where done the best way they'd ever seen! Even the edging inside the vents! People that came by love the flow and the look, I gave your name if ever they wanted to do theirs. The assistance I got was excellent, from first contact to hands on samples, right to the final screw and sealant. The persistence through the design phase, assisting with every detail, logical flow, measurements as well as changes is unmatched compared to the other companies we contacted. A team that strives to get everything perfect. I love the flow of the kitchen, everything feels quickly accessible when doing my day to day routine. Our kitchen went from a necessity to a living space! 10/10 for the furnplus team!

I adore the way they've blended functionality with style, creating a warm and inviting space that's perfect for cooking and gathering with loved ones.
