Very pleased with both purchase and seller

Bought product at 60% of RRP and requested next day delivery. It arrived next day, boxed (which hasn't always been the case from other resellers) taped, and in perfect condition.

Very pleased with this and looking forward to making future purchases.

I have ordered four times from the Paint Shed having extensively checked prices across other suppliers. They are always a little cheaper especially with one of their regular deals. Also, they will colour mix other top brands perfectly and I have been very happy with the results. Good communication by email and text and their DPD delivery is better than most.

Excellent service

Ordering was really easy , they knew exactly what I wanted after I’d tried so many places who just didn’t want to help . The price of my paint was very fair , and the delivery was amazing , fast , secure and very well packaged . I wanted a specific paint just for a piece of artwork but think I’ve now found my go to place for all of my everyday paint needs in the future too. All in all, an excellent service which I will be recommending to everyone .
