Prompt service easy to use website

Great service. Received my plant tie supports for the Halls greenhouse promptly. Sadly the tomatoes this year were awful but the product will last for many more.

I ordered 2 Rosedene 5’ garden benches…

I ordered 2 Rosedene 5’ garden benches in June this year. I then realised I didn’t have room for both and changed the order to one bench. This was dealt with politely and efficiently, my refund was sent and my one bench arrived. I did need help to construct it, but am very pleased with the quality and style of the bench. It looks lovely in my small garden and is weathering well. Overall I would highly recommend this bench, excellent value for money.

Dear Anthony Goddard,

Thank you for your 5-star review.

We are happy to hear that you were satisfied with the efficiency of your delivery, especially as this has been an element of business that many companies have struggled with over the last 2 years due to transportation issues owing to the pandemic.

Dear Jane Evans,

Thank you for you review and we are sorry to read your comments.

We always ask customers to contact us directly should they experience any issues with their purchase so that our dedicated Customer Care Team can resolve these as efficiently as possible. I have taken a look through our inbox and system notes and cannot see any previous communications from you regarding rusting problems (or any problems in general to do with the feature or your purchasing experience). Regrettably, we are unable to assist if customers do not make us aware of issues.

In light of this, we kindly ask that you contact a member of our specialist Aquatic staff either via email: aquatics@gardensite.co.uk or over the phone: 0121 355 7701. Our staff have expert knowledge on aftercare and maintenance and should be able to provide adequate advice to avoid issues such as rusting and many more.

Hope this helps.

Please let us know should you need any further information.

Kind regards,

Palmako Karl Carport

I purchased a Palmako Karl 18 x 12 ft Carport from GardenSite. The delivery driver that delivered the kit (it comes on a very long pallet) was brilliant and very helpful. The quality of the carport was really good, very robust, and there were no items missing or shortages. I have been very pleased with my purchase from GardenSite.

Unfortunately this company are an absolute nightmare to deal with and have no ability or understanding of customer service.
They delivered a product that turned up in a state with no packaging, instructions, and with half the parts missing it’s taken me continuous back and forth on email and phone, when I called to speak to the manager surprisingly they were not available and only want to correspond on email and after spending over 200 pounds with them they will not provide a refund without me paying £40 for them to collect it! I am totally dissatisfied with their service product and approach especially after seeing that other reviewers were offered full refunds and free collections just for not liking things based on some of their responses to customer reviews!
I can understand if I had simply changed my mind however the product is not as described, nor is it fit for purpose and so they are simply being difficult.

Dear K Marks,

Thank you for your review.

We are disappointed to read that your item was delivered with some missing parts. It is inevitable that, regrettably, this does happen from time to time however our Customer Care Team will always endeavour to be proactive in resolving such issues as efficiently as possible. Our standard procedure is to send out the relevant replacement parts and I can see that a member of the Team has been in contact with you to discuss this, however, you have stated that you would prefer to cancel the order. You are, of course, entitled to do this, however, we are not liable to cover the costs associated with the cancellation. More information on this can be found in our Terms and Conditions which we encourage customers to read prior to placing an order with us.

I can see that we have also given you the option to return the item yourself for a full refund (meaning that you would not have to pay the cancellation charge). This is still a viable option should you wish to proceed in this manner.

All of our customers are treated the same and we have official company procedures in place to ensure that these standards are met at all times.

We are waiting to hear from you regarding how you would like to proceed.

Kind regards,
Customer Care Team / GardenSite.co.uk

Can anyone confirm whether this is in fact a real company?
I placed an order at the beginning of July and was assured a 4 week delivery. July became August became September. I have phoned again today to be told October (No-one is going to be shipping summer garden materials in October) Worried I have been scammed.

Dear Tim Dearden,

Thanks for your review.

May I reassure you that we are a real company and not a 'scam' - we have in fact been trading successfully both online and in-store here in Birmingham for over 60 years. We have worked closely with the manufacturer of your product, Biohort, for many years and you can verify this by looking at their list of official dealers here: https://www.biohort.com/en/contact/dealers/dealers?Contact%5Bnavigation1730%5D%5Bpage%5D=3&no_cache=1

All of our delivery timescales are estimates and, as such, we never 'assure' or promise customers specific delivery dates as we know that these can be prone to change, especially in the current circumstances related to the pandemic. 

As a local family business, maintaining good customer relations is very important to us and I hope that our phone call in which we further discussed the issues outlined in your review has been useful. 

I can see that an update has been provided regarding the delivery of your Storage Box which is anticipated very shortly.

Should you need anything else, please do not hesitate to get back in contact with me.

All the best,
Gaby

I ordered an Elite Craftsman greenhouse through Gardensite. The online systems was easy to use and clearly showed the options available to me. I ordered in February and my expectations were set that delivery from the supplier would be around 22 weeks. Delivery took place in August, having had to delay the first delivery date offered. Throughout gardensite replies to my few enquiries and were extremely supportive in arranging some replacement glass following difficulties with glazing the greenhouse. Those replacements have arrived. The greenhouse is nearing completion and already in part use. I’m sure I’ll be very satisfied with the final result.

We are over the moon to hear that you are so pleased with your Borderstone Woodland Patio Set. This Set is very unique due to its authentic, rustic look which is emphasised by the reconstituted stone which has long-life and anti-weathering properties. We are sure that this furniture will last you a lifetime.

Furthermore, your kind comments have been passed back to our long-standing colleague, Matthew, for his reference. Thank you for taking the time to share these.

We hope you have a lovely summer enjoying your new Patio Set.

Zero after service care. Do NOT reply to emails

I ordered a flower ring but forgot to buy the ground spikes at the time. Unable to order them as a separate item on their website (I don't know why this is). I have emailed them on several occasions to ask how I buy these spikes on their own but have not had the courtesy of a reply. Will NOT buy from them again.

Sophia Enigma Garden statue

I had been searching for a "Sophia" garden ornament which I wanted to buy with some money given to me for a milestone birthday.
The one I found locally was damaged. I eventually found I could order one from Gardensite. It arrived earlier than expected (I was told 25 - 30 days) and was extremely well packaged. I was very nervous when opening but glad to see that she was unscathed and is now sitting peacefully in my back garden.
My only issue would be that she was double the price of the one I found locally.

Masha Allah

Masha Allah ! Very good product and service, and cheapest on the market - some people tried to charge me almost double for the same thing. Gardensite is good price and good service. The only issue I had was instead of taking two days it took two weeks to construct, and the ground had to be perfectly level.

My beautiful greenhouse

I purchased a greenhouse and was fully satisfied with the service from GardenSite and with the greenhouse - it is unbelievably sturdy yet the supports don't block light. When purchasing it my options for additional features like my louvre windows were obvious. It was the retirement present to myself that I had dreamed of.
