“Great products and prices but terrible communication. When we ordered were told about 7 day delivery but never had a delivery day confirmed. I rang a week later and was told it was coming that day so we had no notice. Needed to be home and unlock alley gate and garden gate and arrange someone to wheelbarrow it to the back garden.”
“Used the online service to select and order some timber for a small garden project. Delivered in 4 days, driver very helpful unloading, timber in good condition, no issues using for intended purpose. Would use again.”
“Great service and product supplied exactly as required. My only criticism is that once you have ordered on line there is no electronic communication to say when goods will be delivered but a quick phone call soon resolves this and staff are always helpful.”
“Ordered stone chipings online. Got immediate confirmation . Given 3 to 7 days for delivery. Was expecting an email or phone call to confirm a date, but the lorry just turned up without prior notice. Not a problem for me as was in. Delivery driver was very polite and helpful, put the stones exactly as wanted.. overall a good service”
“All went to plan. Delivery driver placed the materials where requested…very good competent service well done to all involved.. I’ll definitely use the service again… bye bye wicked home delivery”
“Delivery man was very helpful and friendly ordering of timber was very clear and easy to do kept informed of delivery all way through great quality wood delighted with all.”
“I ordered stones on Tuesday from the Mansfield store as they were local to us. It said 3-5 working days, so was expecting it within that time. I received no correspondence after placing my order. Had to call after the 3-5 working days where they said there was a delay due to summer and ‘everyone wants their gardens doing.’ Which I don’t see why it is my problem? I was then told they didn’t even have the stones in stock so would be ready in 2 days. I then rang as I was expecting the stones to be delivered but had received no correspondence. They then said they weren’t sure and would let me know. I had to get someone to wait in, as I obviously work and can’t just wait around, yet they didn’t come. I got a call back to say the delivery vehicle was too full. They said it would then be Saturday morning definitely which was 8 working days after order. He said I would receive a text about delivery before. I then get a knock at 10am, no correspondence until 4 hrs later when they said delivery was on its way, after it had arrived! Won’t order from here again… no compensation or apology. Paid £15 for a late delivery that I had to chase!”
