clients say
I had this contract in 2018 to run a perimeter fencing with anti finger clear view mesh from a reputable church in Port Harcourt. I googled and Sunsteel popped up, copied the address and flew into Lagos and drove all the way to Agbara where their Fabrication yard is located. I gave them my specifications and scope and whitin 2 weeks my order was ready for installation. This culminated to a partnership that lasted for over 9 months and through all these period, i had no regrets whatsoever in the quality, finishing and delivery time of my materials for work.
Orji Levi, Locomann International Company.
I can always count on the good quality materials and the reliability, and promptness of staff in delivery of materials without disappointment. Sunsteel is very recommandable.
