Testimonial – Jane Cavanough
“I have been designing and supplying urban sculpture for over 25 years. NSF fabricated my last sculptural play structure; a design collaboration with Indigenous artist Jasmine Sarin. Having worked with a number of fabricators over my professional career, I found NSF’s professional standards to be outstanding. Their quotation was clear and concise, their communication skills excellent, the shop drawings finely detailed with no errors, and the workmanship applied to both timber and stainless steel fabrication and finishing was flawless. Each key milestone was met on time and on budget. The NSF team installed the cockatoo cubby house, meeting stringent WHS site requirements.
NSF is a fabrication firm that will go the extra mile to make your job better than the expected outcome. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.”
