Ahead of the first storm of the winter months, Amazon has slashed the price of an “extremely sturdy and hard-wearing” fence repair kit. The Anmas Power Heavy Duty Steel Fence Post Repair Stakes kit has been reduced from £49.99 to £29.99, giving shoppers a massive 40% saving.
The kit, which is available in seven different sizes (with prices varying depending on kit choice), is engineered to be straightforward to use. According to the Amazon description, users can “simply drive the ground spike into the ground using a hammer or mallet, providing a quick and hassle-free solution for repairing tilted or broken wood fence posts”.

The kit, which is crafted from “u-shaped steel”, is “suitable for various fence post sizes and types” and perfect for fixing a leaning or damaged fence post, delivering robust support to prevent tilting.
Although the Anmas Power Heavy Duty Steel Fence Post Repair Stakes only have 108 reviews so far, customers have been thoroughly impressed by them, reports the Mirror.
One person said, ” My 6-foot fence nearly blew over with the strong winds a couple of months ago. I thought I would have to replace some of the fence. I bought these to try first. It took 15 minutes to fix the posts, and it feels solid. Excellent. I will probably buy a few more just to secure other posts in the future.”
A second added: “Brilliant, I spent half an hour and repaired a 35-year-old fence. I think it’s stronger now than when I built it.”
Meanwhile, one delighted customer gushed: “I was sceptical at first, but am so pleased I bought these. I thought the posts were past redemption, but I reckon we’ll get another 15 years out of them! Extremely sturdy and hard wearing.”
Whilst most shoppers were over the moon with their purchase, a few had minor complaints. One such buyer noted: “The fence post repair kit arrived without the drill bit and driver bit for installation.”
Another person added: “Very easy to use, just need a big hammer.”
For those seeking an alternative, Wickes stocks the Fencemate Repair Spur Support Post for £21. Alternatively, you could choose B&Q’s Fence Rescue – Post Repair Stake Anchor, priced at £25.35.
