Excellent product and rapidly despatched. A bit pricey, I first thought, but on receipt I found the quality so vastly superior to local garden centres.

Perfect dimensions

The trellises had the exact specified dimensions, we put them up on our balcony and we are very happy with them.
Why not 5 stars:
- the wood looked a bit weathered (almost a little mossy?) and one of the beams was splintered
- the deliverers did not help get them upstairs where we live, so I had to carry them up 5 flights of stairs by myself one by one. To be fair, this company are not alone in offering an imperfect delivery experience.

Thank you for your review. I am sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your products. Unfortunately as you have not provided an order number or your name I am unable to look into this for you to see if you have already contacted us, however I suspect that the 'mossy' appearance you are referring to is the green of the tanalising which will weather down once exposed to UV in your garden. We do refer to this in our T&C's.
We make every effort to ensure customers are made aware of our delivery policy prior to ordering, and state in multiple places that we only offer a kerbside delivery, although our drivers are usually helpful and will take the items to the property if it is accessible, they are not insured to go through properties or up flights of stairs which is why we make sure customers are aware of this prior to placing their order.

Excellent workmanship but very expensive.…

Excellent workmanship achieves perfect final result.
Very expensive but nobody does trellis work like this.
The initial quotation was incorrect and too high despite them having received a detailed scale drawing, for which I received an apology from the responsible person.
The survey and installation team were excellent.

Thank you for taking the time to review us, your feedback is important to us and enables us to review and improve on our customer service and procedures.
I have investigated this for you, and can see that we provided a quotation for you based on the drawing dimensions, and had not realised you were not covering the entire run length quoted. When providing any quotation we do always ask that you check that we have interpreted your requirements correctly, which in your case we hadn't and you told us and we revised the quotation as requested.
I am pleased to hear that you are delighted with the products supplied and the installation service you received. We will ensure that the teams involved are made aware of your lovely comments.

Brilliant quality trellis

Had two separate orders from Garden Trellis company . Both arrived on time, well packaged & in excellent condition. The trellis was top quality , far better than any I have seen in garden centres & B&Q. Looks fantastic now it’s installed. I would highly recommend this company .

Exactly What I Was Looking For.

The trellis was exactly what I was looking for and I certainly did not see anything like it from other companies. The quality is first rate and worth the price. I was also pleased with the customer service as I did have a few questions and these were answered courteously and promptly.

High quality trellis

We are very happy with our privacy trellis. It was delivered well packaged meaning that it was all in perfect condition. The painted finish is very good and there was even a tin of touch up paint included.

Poor Response on a complaint of shoddy goods.

I'm generally not one for writing reviews but feel compelled to do so by the intransigence of the company on failing to recognise that the trellises they supplied were in a poor state and not fit for the purpose we intended (to form a partition boundary for a bespoke bistro sitting area).
The delivery lead time of around 10 days was acceptable but what wasn't acceptable was the dirty and mould infected state that they arrived in. I was shocked and embarrassed before I'd even got them fully out of the package and made a video there and then recording their poor state. I'm referring to a black spotted mould that appeared on all of the 6 panels I ordered and of the general dirty condition that they were in. When I reported the problem , along with the video illustrating clearly what was wrong , the representative simply said that the mould would disappear over time and that the dirt on the trellises could be cleaned off by hand. I could of course return them at my own expense but would not receive a refund on the original postage cost of £65. This is within the T&C's but given that I supplied strong evidence to their arrival condition I would've at least expected an apology and a good will offer of having the postage paid. I therefore decided to have a go at cleaning one of the trellises with soap and water and a stiff brush. It took me around 2 hours to clean just one of the 6'x4' 40mm diamond trellises. This removed all the dirt but not the mould. So all in all it took a day of cleaning to get them to the best they could be. As I reported to the company, the simple bottom line was that if I (or anyone else for that matter) had seen these trellises on sale in a local DIY store they wouldn't have considered buying them for one minute unless heavily discounted. I have since trawled the local stores to see the condition of their trellises and all were in a clean and mould free state. I feel embarrassed to have bought blind without seeing their product but given some of the good reviews I took a chance. Maybe I was just unlucky and got supplied with some old stock that had been lying around for sometime. But if you're feeling lucky and prepared to take a gamble on not having my experience then I would say go ahead , pay your money and take your chance. However, I personally would not recommend The Garden Trellis company to either friends or family.

I am very sorry to hear you are unhappy with the products you have received. I have investigated this for you and can see you advised us that there were black marks on the panels which we explained is something that can occur due to the tanalising process and is referred to in our terms and conditions. It is not dirty and does not adversely affect the timber in any way. There is no need to sand this off, as explained, this will quickly disappear once installed and exposed to UV light. The reason you don't often see this at garden centres is because many suppliers only paint on their treatment whereas ours are impregnated into the timber and why we are able to offer a 12-year timber guarantee. I am unsure why you feel the panels are not fit for purpose, as the purpose of trellis is to provide a screen which I don’t believe is in question.
I am confident that the panels, once installed, will weather to a lovely silvery grey and provide a beautiful back drop to your seating area.

Excellent company

I have bought on multiple occasions from GTC and every time both products and service including well packaged delivery has been first class. They helped me amend an order once in a very efficient way that helped me avoid additional delivery charges. A joy to shop with.
