Dear Michelle,

Thank you for your 5-star review.

We have been working hard post-Brexit to ensure we can find plausible ways to still deliver to our overseas customers. This has been a long and complicated process but we understand the importance of catering to the international market and making sure you can still enjoy all of the wonderful products we have to offer.

Thank you for taking time out of your day to write such kind words!

Dear Paul,

Thank you for your great review!

We had lots of orders for replacement glass over the last 2 weeks due to the adverse weather conditions which were felt up and down the whole country! We are glad that we were able to provide the panes that you required in a timely and efficient manner to ensure your greenhouse wasn't exposed to the elements for too long.

Wishing you many happy growing seasons to come!

I fell in love with this pergola

I fell in love with this pergola, and was absolutely delighted with it when it was erected. Delivery was as promised. It has been up for several months now, and I am still very happy.

Replacement raised bed

Three years ago I took delivery and installed three excellent raised beds. Unfortunately there was a problem with one of them this year, but as they were still within the guarantee period, I hoped to get a replacement free of charge.
It couldn’t have been easier. Garden site are a great company, helpful, efficient and friendly. I will be recommending them at every opportunity.

Great piece of kit for my greenhouse

Great piece of kit for my greenhouse, enabled multiple sowings and potting-on little seedlings.
sensible height - not too tall so plants in the top tier can grow taller if required.
Only slight issue is keeping everything watered although some water does drip through, Recommend placing a large drip tray underneath eg a compost bag tray to prevent water pooling underneath.

Dear R Bould,

Thank you for your review.

Our Halls New 3 Tier Seed Tray Tidy for 15 Trays is probably one of our most popular greenhouse accessories given the reasons you listed above.

We are sorry to hear of the slight inconvenience that you encountered and will pass your feedback over to the manufacturers for their reference and consideration.

Thank you again for taking time out of your day to leave us a great review.

Greenhouse - 8ft x 6ft

Ordered at the height of Lockdown and was told a long delivery, which was understandable. Ultimately delivered a few weeks early which was good.

Assembly needs 2 people, ideally 3 people for around 30 minutes when you are putting all four sides up and constructing the roof.

The instructions were OK, as long as you take the time to read carefully. A bit tricky around the construction of the door. I messed up a bit by rushing ahead and needed to order 2 extra parts, as a couple of the runners came apart (because I'd not followed the instructions).

The extra runner parts were delivered 3 days after I requested them, very efficient.

Overall very happy with the quality of the greenhouse and the customer service that goes with it.

Dear JB,

Thank you for your excellent comments and for taking the time to provide a genuine review of your experience with both the level of service and the quality of the product provided by GardenSite. Your concerns regarding the difficulty of the build will be passed back to the manufacturers in an effort to improve the assembly instructions to ensure that future customers do not experience the same issues.

We are very glad to hear that, overall, you are pleased with your purchase and we do hope that you would choose to purchase through GardenSite.co.uk again in the future.

Ordered statue in July. Now October but not arrived

Ordered a statue. Money was taken from my account on 23 July. Responses for updates on when statue will be shipped are either "due to be despatched the week commencing the 20th of September" or "I will enquire this information with the suppliers. Once they have responded, I will contact you with an update", (no update) or "your order is due to be dispatched from the warehouse tomorrow" (20th October). Money left my account but no statue delivered. Not answering the phone. Have asked for my money back. Wrong to take money that early and not deliver or even give an update.
5/11 UPDATE: 1/11 had a response "We have requested for your order to be cancelled with the warehouse. Once confirmed a refund will be processed back to your account. We apologise for the delay and any inconvenience caused." No refund so far and no update.

Dear B4SH,

Thank you for your review and we are sorry that it is not on better terms.

Our Enigma range of items have, without doubt, been the worst hit in terms of supply and demand over the last 1.5 years. Our suppliers have struggled with continued stock delays at both the UK and Vietnamese ports (where these products come from) due to both the current pandemic and issues relating to Brexit which has meant that a lot of customers have been subject to much longer delivery timescales which we can only apologise for.

I can now see that, as per your request, your order has been cancelled and a full refund has been credited back to your card.

Kind regards,

Need to learn lessons in Customer Service

I used to love this company, couldn't buy enough goodies for the garden, But something happened, the Customer Service is abysmal, i vowed never to use them again. a good adage Buyer Beware!

I see they are trying to muddy the waters! Customer services team, look at procedure after purchasing oriental table & benches! I do have the replies you sent! and as for the statues, I really had to haul you over the coals for breaking trades description, only after I highlighted concerns did you change your website.

Dear Mrs Julia Davies,

We are very sorry to see your 1-star review.

We do sincerely apologise for the issue that occurred with your order. Having taken a look at the communications, I can see that there was a slight discrepancy with the height of the item which was reported upon delivery. Although not an excuse, it is inevitable that, from time to time, specifications may be incorrect on the website as these are all inputted manually and are liable to human error. In such cases, our Customer Care Team will always endeavour to be proactive in resolving them as soon as possible to ensure that the customer's inconvenience is kept to a minimum. 

In this case, I can see that you emailed in your concerns on 15 April and you were replied to on the same day with 2 potential resolutions: a partial refund to keep the item as it was or the option to have the item collected free of charge in exchange for a full refund. You replied that you were happy to accept the partial refund which was then processed back to your original payment method, again, on the same day, and you then expressed your satisfaction with this outcome.

Given this, I was saddened to read your review as it differs greatly from your last email. I am unsure as to what more our Customer Care Team could have done to assist in this case. We apologise again for your troubles and hope this would not deter you from purchasing from us in the future.

Kind regards,

Excellent customer care

I ordered an aluminium patio cover from site and when it was delivered some of the parts had damaged paint due to manufacturers delivery company fault.
I contacted customer care by Email and they responded immediately by contacting the manufacturer who sent out replacement parts within 2 days.
The response and communication was excellent and thanks were passed on to customer care.

I bought a fantastic quality Palmako shed from GardenSite few months back. Despite the initial mistake with the order confirmation which was not their mistake everything went according to plan. Yes the shed arrived few weeks later than the proposed delivery time however with disruption on the supply chain, it was something I anticipated. Overall great service

Authentic looking bird bath

The bird bath looks great ie as if it had been there for decades which is the look we wanted.

The delivery time was about four weeks as expected.

The only disappointing feature is that the manufacturer's name is rather obvious on the pedestal and it would have been better if more discreet ie out of sight underneath.

Dear Beatrice Pearce,

Thank you for your 4-star review.

It is very common for customers to want certain outdoor products, especially birdbaths and feeders, to look slightly aged and weathered so that they fit inconspicuously into nature's environment. We are happy to hear that this is one of the reasons why you are pleased with your purchase.

As for the feedback regarding the branding, we have passed this back to the manufacturers for their reference.

Thank you for your genuine feedback which helps us to continually improve.
