Disappointing Experience from Start to Finish

I had a deeply frustrating experience with this company from start to finish. Communication was terrible—updates were infrequent and unclear, making it difficult to plan around the delivery. Despite their website stating that I would receive a call an hour before delivery, this never happened, leaving me unprepared when they finally arrived.

The delivery itself was a disaster. The first attempt failed because they claimed I hadn’t provided access information, yet there was no prompt to include this during checkout. They then updated their website to make it look like it was my fault. On the second attempt, the driver showed up alone, expecting me to assist in unloading a large, heavy order. This level of service was unacceptable, especially considering the size and cost of my purchase.

When I raised these concerns, customer service was dismissive. They refused to take responsibility for the failed first delivery and wouldn’t refund the delivery fee. For a high-value order, their lack of support, poor communication, and unwillingness to resolve basic delivery issues were beyond disappointing. I would not recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable service or customer care.

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Our delivery process adheres to terms outlined on our website, which include the requirement for customers to assist with unloading when delivery is made by van. The products are designed to be handled by two people, which aligns with industry standards.

In this case, the order was delivered within the scheduled timeframe, including the rescheduled delivery due to access issues. At checkout, our system prompts customers to specify any access, weight, or height restrictions in the “Order Notes” section. This information helps us ensure a smooth delivery and is outlined in our Delivery Policy.

While you may not agree with our response, this clarification is offered for others who may read your review. We aim to be transparent in our policies and ensure that all customers have the information they need to plan for delivery.

They do what it says on the tin!

Came into Briarwood unsure about installation, left with confidence on my project. All materials in stock. Hats off to the guys who loaded me as well. Tried local companies but no answer. 100% recommend!

Not interested in my enquiry and then when the product finally arrived (late) they were damaged. 10 phone calls later, no call backs and no resolution. TERRIBLE SERVICE. Office staff promise call backs and never do. Save your money and go elsewhere , we did for the extra bits we needed and got them the next day from a local company.

Hi Steve.

Thanks for your feedback.
Looking at your order, this was placed on 3rd July 2023.
We have no correspondence regarding emails, phone calls being received about your order.

Please get in touch to discuss your order from last year, we can then look to see where and what went wrong. Due to the timeframe we cannot see anything now.

No communication and Mislead on delivery date

Being local to me I thought I would support a family run business but this was a mistake.
Delivery was supposed to be within 15 working days.
This did not happen and zero Comms from them.
Contacted and promised they would get back to me as stock was arriving that week.
7 days later no communication once again and no items. 12 phone calls and an hour to get through to them I have to request a refund.
One star rating is one star too many and I don't seem to be the only one who this has happened to.
I would advise anyone to stay clear of these people.
Went to a different supplier, saved £250 and available today.

Hi Scott.

Thank you for your feedback.
We do appreciate you supporting local, we do this ourselves also.
This was a supply and demand issue, to which would have been rectified within 2 days of speaking with you. We appreciate the frustration and we did offer a refund prior towards the end of your delivery timeframe.

Please feel free to get in touch to further discuss your views via email or call us.

Scratched and damaged sheet

Scratched and damaged sheets told me to look at terms and conditions as it’s acceptable in small print. Expect customer services to say they don’t recognise the order in reply. Avoid And save yur money!

You did purchase our clearance range of profiled sheeting, this was noted in our terms and conditions at checkout. We had a more premium listing for money, but the cheaper item was purchased.

The delivery driver was exceptional

The delivery driver was exceptional, very accommodating, however the original order was incorrect although Briarwood corrected the mistake it still added to a delay in receiving the materials.
Overall quite happy with the products and delivery.

From having no idea to confident expert in 40 mins!

I arrived with my trailer and full of questions. The man in reception was very patient and informative and I left confident that I knew what I was doing. The dispatch team helped me load it and within 40 minutes I was on my way again. I have since fitted my garage roof and am very pleased. Thank you team.

Hi Simon.

Thank you for the feedback.
Apologies you feel you had this level of service from Briarwood. I have looked into correspondence relating to this order, cannot see any information confirming this statement above.

We as a company always recommend waiting for the goods to be delivered and checked before booking in with contractors. This rules out any potential missing goods or incorrectly ordered items.

Please reach out to speak with us on a personal level and discuss the above.
