Very good service
I had a question about the paint and it was answered with an email next day. It was easy to order and the paint came very quickly on the normal delivery charge. I have used paint shed before and will do again. I live in the country and it’s great not having to get in the car all the time. Very good result, great quality paint and good price. Thank you.

1st Class Service
The ordering process and website were very easy to use, and I was able to order the specialised colour that I needed for 2 paint types.
The follow up communication was extremely thorough, informing me at every stage of preparation, despatch and delivery, which surprisingly was free, given the already low cost of the products.
The products arrived very quickly and were extremely well packaged using sustainable packaging.

Great service and price
The whole experience of buying paint from The Paint Shed was very positive.
The price was the best I could find, it was easy to order the paint colour match I wanted ( Johnstone’s paint matched to a F&B and a Little Greene colour). Confirmation and delivery was quick and professional. Paint arrived well packaged. I have recommended to several friends

Unhelpful
I am changing my positive review. Yes, quick delivery but very unhelpful when I asked for advice on colour options.
Please don't make a mistake on mixed colours. I stupidly missed that it can't be returned or exchanged, but again, shows no flexibility. The colour I chose was on their website, hence I assumed this was standard. Instead sending me 3 different links where it explains the terms.
The date for experience was 14/05/2026 following email exchange, asking for advice. For some reason Trustpilot doesn't let me chose the correct date.

Hello Anja,
We are sorry to hear that you’re disappointed with your purchase.
As your paint was mixed to order, we were unfortunately unable to accept a return once it had been made, even after you found the colour was darker than expected for your bathroom. We do make every effort to clearly highlight when paints are mixed to order at several stages, so customers can make an informed choice.
While our team are always happy to offer guidance, we do understand that colours and shades are highly personal and can appear differently depending on lighting and space. For that reason, our colleagues aim to support customers in exploring the available options rather than selecting a colour on their behalf.
A member of our team will be in touch to confirm the details and to discuss any concerns you may still have. In the meantime, please don’t hesitate to let us know if there’s anything further we can assist you with.
Kind Regards,
The Paint Shed
