Information provided by various external sources
Fence-Aid, the company behind the Post Buddy fence post repair system was founded in 2010 by husband and wife, Wayne and Gaby Phelan. The family business based in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, first began in the Phelans’ back garden when a broken fence post caused their fence to lean. Wayne did not relish the thought of digging out and replacing the damaged fence post. He knew that existing products on the market made for back-breaking, time-consuming work. Looking for a quicker, easier solution, Wayne, a former Development Project Manager, came up with new ideas on how to fix a leaning fence.……..and Post Buddy was born. Both Wayne and Gaby committed themselves to their new business venture and Gaby uses her experience as a PA to ensure Fence-Aid’s customers receive top quality service. Together Gaby and Wayne continue to grow and develop the company.

Great quality product easy to fit
Was sceptical thinking may be too difficult to drive the metal stakes in,but it worked a treat. Used a small wedge between stake and post edge to give angle for driving it in. Seemed very sturdy with just one stake but just in case put second one in,also no problem at all

Just sorted 3 posts with 3 pairs of Post Buddy rods/strips. I am very pleased with the ease of installation, and the outcome. I think I will do the other non-critical posts before things get worse for them.

Great product
The order was delivered quickly and exactly as promised. The Post Buddy worked exactly as described and shown in the demonstration video so I was really pleased by that. To be honest, I was a bit surprised because the system seemed to be such a simple solution to a common problem that it looked to be too good to be true. The repaired fence is now much stronger and secure than before.

Too good to be true? I think not.
This came up on my Google feed. If I'm honest I thought it was a scam. Sounded too good to be true. I like being proved wrong. Post Buddy is amazing. Easy to use and very effective. Saved me bundles. Quick delivery too. If you're hesitant in ordering. Don't be. You won't regret it.
