“We had an open verandah installed in 2020. We were initially happy with the price and product but it started to rust through in several places which we noticed last winter. I sent pictures to Eden Verandahs this April as we are still well within the guarantee period and they were initially helpful saying this that they would arrange an engineer visit. However we heard nothing and I e mailed again after three months. They responded that it was their busiest time, although I suppose it wasn't their busiest time threee months previously when I raised the matter, and they would come back to me 'as soon as we have a date'. I have tried telephoning but they will not commit to even making an initial visit saying they don't know when they will be in the area, which is Dorset, although they advertise nationwide. It is now over seven months with no action at all apart from a small tin of paint (I assume) arriving a couple of months ago. I think they are just hoping I'll lose heart and go away. An unsatisfactory product for the money and very poor service in breach of their waranty”

Hi Hendrik Thank you for your review of our company. We’re pleased to hear that you were originally happy with the veranda but apologise for the delay in sending an engineer. Unfortunately it appears that, due to human error, the original request for a site visit was not passed on to the correct team member on this occasion. We’re so sorry for this oversight and extremely glad that you contacted us again. I can see from our records that we are now scheduled to attend next week and we very much look forward to seeing you and to putting things right. Kind Regards The Eden Customer Service Team

We're so sorry that planning has been denied for your glass room. Though we are immensely sympathetic to your situation, we must point out that we only went ahead with the installation on the basis of the waiver that you signed. We will continue to offer any assistance we can, should you decide to appeal this decision, and hope that the outcome will be successful. Please do not hesitate to contact us if there is anything more we can do to help. Kind regards The Eden Customer Service Team

“The glass room that I waited about 6 months for has been nothing but a nightmare with constant leaks and slow and disinterested customer service. I would not recommend and sadly wish I had never had it installed.”

Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your experience. Having reviewed our records, I can see that your installation unfortunately needed to be postponed after it became apparent that planning would be required due to previous extensions. We understand how frustrating this must have been for you and sincerely apologise for the wait. We are also extremely sorry to hear that there is currently a leak. We look forward to visiting you on the 30th to put this right and hope that you will be pleased with your glass room, once the remedial work has been carried out.

Hello Helen Thank you for taking your time to leave this review. I'm sorry you haven't had a positive experience with us. I've reviewed your records and can see that we are returning to site to complete the remedial work on Tuesday. We will be sending the specific engineers you have requested but would like to take this opportunity to assure you that all of our installation teams are fully trained in Weinor products in any case. We sincerely apologise for the stress and inconvenience caused to you as a result of the remedial work taking longer than anticipated to complete and look forward to completing the glass room and decking to our usual high standards. We are committed to putting things right for you and trust that you will be pleased with the final finish. Kind regards The Eden Customer Service Team

“If I could give no stars it would better reflect the real score 93% on this review site poppycock... this Company has left me with a unfinished £40,000.00 glass veranda that's not fit for purpose. My story starts back on November 16 2021 and that is when my nightmare began when Geoff Lloyd conned me into believing they only have in house installers which is a complete lie because that's exactly what they use sub contractors. Sub contractors who are unqualified split between other companies ie Crocodile during fitting your job exhausted stressed resulting in substandard installation, the company return to renege on agreement about how to make it right because after making me wait for another 6 months they have decided to cut corners to fix a already shoddy install. If I knew then what i know now I would avoid this company like the plague. I was blatantly lied to by the salesman in order to get a signed contract I was then promised it would be a complete rebuild basically. They cancel dates show up with workman unfit to do job due to injury or only 1 guy shows up because the others are unreliable I have been left with a mess 16 months after that conman sold me a lie taking my life savings I only wish you could put photos on here”

“After meeting with Eden’s salesman in March 2022 we ordered and paid our deposit and we’re quoted approximately 12 weeks for installation. Marvellous we enjoy our veranda in the Autumn sunshine. Wrong ! The reality is July our order was sent to Germany then nothing heard from Eden for 3 months, after e-mails, frustrating telephone calls we were told our veranda would be at Farnborough on 24th October & informed installation would be ‘shortly thereafter’ . Wrong again ! The reality is December 5th delivery & installation 6th wrong again ! Delivered on the 6th installation on the 7th. Unfortunately 4 large panes of glass were cracked on the lorry, never mind we should get it completed by Christmas, wrong again ! After chasing non- customer services and asking three different members of staff ( I can name them) nobody has the decency to call us back and gives us a delivery date for glass which is available & cut here in the UK. New year comes & 9 weeks later we are here on 13th February 2023. At this point I have to say the fitters, delivery team, and Steve the technical surveyor have all been superb. But we are still missing some parts to complete so I’m expecting another 9 weeks before we actually get finished, that’s a year since first contact and on hindsight the worst decision ever. Eden do not answer the telephone, certainly do not return calls, their customer care is non existent, delivery dates are plucked from the iCloud, shame as the product is typically German 1st class. Conclusion :- If you’ve got £25,000 to spare and want to buy a years worth of stress then contact Eden Verandas on the other hand, if I were you I’d go on a World Cruise instead, much better for your health ! I wouldn’t recommend Eden to anybody.”

Dear D & L Rawcliffe, Thank you for your review. We’re pleased that you are happy with our surveyor, delivery and fitting teams and apologise that our communication has fallen short of your expectations and the high standards we set for ourselves. We’re sorry that there have been delays to both the initial installation and our return to fit the missing parts. I can see that we have booked an appointment to complete the required work on 14th April and trust that you will be very happy with the finished product. Kind regards, The Eden Customer Service Team

“Having placed an order for a cube in may we were advised this may take 12 to 18 weeks for delivery. This was installed some 26 weeks later. Incorrectly manufactured with the roof glass not sealing. Assembled with the legs out of plumb. Aluminium cut on artificifical grass endangering our pets. Why the patio or drive was t used has still not been explained! No product knowledge. Even the sales team aren’t aware that the product is German. Drilling through the down pipe and demanding final payment. Damage to the cross member. Not an apology or explanation from anyone at Eden”

“My glass room was installed in November but as yet we have not been able to use it. Firstly even though its well ventilated the condensation drios on you all the time making all tge furniture damp plus its not sealed properly against the outside wall and leaks. Ive been waiting for someone to come and inspect it for weeks but they just keep thanking me for my patience. Its been a total waste of money and wouldn't recommend it.”

Hi Tess We're sorry you are experiencing condensation and that there is some water ingress through the lead flashing. Though some condensation is normal, (and we would recommend heating and ventilating the room or installing a dehumidifier to reduce this as far as possible), I can confirm that we have an appointment for an engineer to investigate the issue and remedy the leak next Thursday. We sincerely apologise for the wait and look forward to seeing you soon. Kind regards The Eden Customer Service Team

“We placed our order in late June and were initially promised a fitting date in September but still waiting. I completely accept that delays have occurred that have been out of Eden Verandas control such as delays at Ports but communication has been extremely poor throughout. We stipulated when we placed our order that we needed our garden room before Christmas and were told this would be the case something I very much doubt. I hope I am proved wrong! We have been told that there were delays with importing the goods, next the goods had arrived but windows that are manufactured in the UK have been delayed and the latest is 'they require a few more weeks to finalise fitting' as their fitters are busy. We phone and email regularly but do not get a response, I called yesterday at 1.30pm and was told the lady I needed to speak to was at lunch and would not be able to return my call as she finished work at 3pm. I will add that at no time have we been anything but polite to the staff. If you decide to use this company I hope your experience is better than ours has been todate.”

We're so sorry for the unfortunate delays installing your glassroom. We are currently working hard to mitigate the effects of supply chain issues within the construction industry, without compromising on quality and thank you for your patience. We now look forward to completing the installation before Christmas and trust that you will be delighted with the finished glassroom.

“Still waiting for completion of our project. Parts missing from Germany, Broken glass and decking incomplete. We have paid tens of thousands of pounds for a room we cannot use. I cannot see the end to this nightmare as no-one takes ownership of the problems. Customer service doesn't return calls, even though they promise to. We were told 18-22 weeks completion when we signed the contract were now at week 33! If this is not resolved quickly we will be taking further action. We have been lied to on many occasions. There is no excuse.”

Thank you for your review. We understand there has been a delay in completing your installation. Please be assured that customer satisfaction is important to us and we are committed to resolving any work that we have been unable to complete on installation. We believe that a date has been provisionally booked with you to finish the installation dependant on the replacement parts arriving with us. Unfortunately, there have been unforeseen circumstances that have occurred, however, we are sure that the finished installation will offset these initial frustrations.

“We had an awning ordered. Had the survey done. Deposit taken. Then to be told weeks later that they can’t do it due to our bricks ??? Called our builder out to assess who advised us there wasn’t an issue. We are reading between the lines. Installation was going to be awkward and as we where not spending into 5 figures probably wasn’t worth the hassle for them. They also sent use someone else’s deposit receipt.”

“The salesman visited on 18th Sept 2020, very impressed and decided to order a glass veranda. On 12th Oct Jamie the surveyor visited to take measurements for design etc. Rebecca from planning and design has been really helpful. It took until may this year to go through my local planning council (due to our home not having work signed off before we brought it, so were applying for retrospective planning. We got the go ahead early may 2021 and was passed back for review to the surveyor and was then ordered on 21st may. The veranda was delivered on the 17th august (the people who delivered it were hardworking, and it all went well). The veranda was due to be installed on the 24th / 25th august 2021, the fitters arrived promptly and laid all the pieces out ready for installation, they started fitting the brackets to the outside of the building and said they were not happy as the extension is timber framed and would not take the weight of the veranda. They called their boss who agreed and I was told the surveyor would be with me the following morning and I would need a goalpost to support the veranda. The surveyor arrived (on time) and ordered the parts needed. I was told by the surveyor and manager they would be ready in two to three weeks. The goal post design was arranged to be delivered on Sept 30th and fitted on 5th / 6th Oct 2021. On the day of expected delivery i was called to say the drivers mate had tested positive for covid so couldn't be delivered . I did say I was still expecting it to be delivered by next week so the installation could still go ahead. I was assured they would phone later that day to update me (no phone call). I called the next morning and was told they were still trying to sort it out and she would call within an hour (which she did), but said it couldn't be delivered as they now needed a driver and so installation would not take place at the agreed time. So I have paid just under 15k and I have enclosed some photos of what I have so far. To say im not impressed is an understatement, and I hope when it is fitted I will be pleased with the end result. I was trying to add photos so people could see what I have but have been unable to do so. Thanks Lorry”

We are very sorry to hear that your awning stopped working. We understand you have since called into our Customer Service team and have had a visit from one of our electricians who has replaced the batteries in the sensor. We believe this to all be working well now. Of course if you do have any further questions regarding the maintenance of the awning or any issues, please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service team who will again be happy to help you in a timely manner. We hope you can continue to enjoy the use of your awning.

“Terrible experience over past 9 months. I signed a deal with Eden Veranda back in September and was told it would take around 4 months to get my veranda installed. Planning permit was granted in time but we are now 9 months later and still no date provided for the installation. No news from the customer service and we need to keep chasing them to get news. We are kept in the dark with no clear visibility on when we can expect delivery, despite multiple asks as we need to do some work upfront. Very disappointed in the service, I am not even sure we will get our veranda one day…”

Thank you for your feedback. We deeply regret that you are disappointed with the service you have received from us thus far and apologise for any frustration we have caused you. As you know, there was a delay in obtaining planning permission for your project, partly due to a council backlog & partly due to a filing error on our part, for which we apologise, and this unfortunately meant we could not begin manufacturing your veranda until the Spring of this year. However, we have offered to install the product for you on June 1st so you should have it available for this Summer and we are sure you will be thrilled with it when it arrives. We will investigate whether we have the correct email address for you on file as our records suggest that we have been emailing you regularly with updates, however, we are very confident that the quality of our product will go a long way to changing your opinion of us in the very near future in any event. If there is anything further we can do to help in the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact us.

“We had our verandah installed last July. Over the winter we had substantial leaks and flooding from where the roof joins the back wall. Eden should have carried out leading to stop water ingress but they have not done this so far.”

Thank you for your review. Our Verandas and Glass Rooms are supplied with a ten year warranty for your peace of mind. Had we been made aware of the leak you were experiencing, we would have been able to arrange an engineer’s appointment rather than you sourcing your own contractor at additional expense. We are pleased to see that we have already scheduled an appointment for you. We trust that our engineer will carry out the work required to our high standard ensuring you are able to enjoy your installation for many years to come.

“I am one unhappy and disappointed customer. Communication is poor your do not keep me updated. The veranda has been at my house for over two weeks and still no indication of when it will befitted, unless of course you ring me today. You have received a considerable amount of money from me. I have been told you have a fitter off ill. How one fitter being ill bring a national company to its knees I do not know. Buyers please be aware of this problem being experienced by us. I am not happy how we are not being looked after. You have a chance to redeem yourself Eden, but will you be able to?”

“Disgraceful. We ordered our awning in late May for installation in 4 to 6 weeks. Around the time it was due I called to get an update: left messages and emails, tried to ring directly but the people supposed to help were always busy or “they had just left the desk”. Finally I got an update via email saying that delivery was on the second week in September, no explanation, no apologies. Started a long exchange of emails to have my deposit back and cancel the order. Several dates in August were agreed and then regularly missed, cancelled last minute. Finally the awning arrives at the end of August, but they day before installation they cancelled again. More stress, more discussion. They offered a discount and a free heating. New date agreed. Awning up and running. When the old salesman first came, we explained clearly that we had 2 issues: very low sun on that side of the house (west) and very strong wind. We asked for advice. He said that awning was the right choice and wouldn’t consider other solutions. Seemed experienced, so we trusted him when he said the awning was strong and could be positioned in a bent position to screen the low sun. Result: the awning closes because of the wind (there’s a sensor), it’s straight and completely useless. And despite discount it costed like a holiday for two at the Caribbean. Just go on holiday.”

We are sorry to hear about your experience and apologise that we did not meet our usual standard of service. Whilst we make every effort to complete orders within the estimated period, regrettably, the unusual global circumstance impacted our ability to fulfil orders within our regular timescale. We appreciate how frustrating the situation may have been for you and sincerely apologise for the delays in carrying out your installation. We hope that our gestures of goodwill have gone some way towards improving your experience. We have contacted you to arrange an engineer’s appointment to adjust the pitch of the awning and weather sensor, which we hope will improve your enjoyment of the product.
