AVOID

AVOID. Placed an order with items in stock. Received an email saying been despatched. Never received the items. Phoned to chase only to be told no stock available and they had left a message and emailed me which is both false. The items still show in stock as well. AVOID

We made full refund yesterday after our conversation on the phone.
Have a great Christmas.

So sorry for this issue, unfortunately we had the wrong product in the picking bay so we were unable to dispatch. On this occasion, we do except it was our error and i cannot apologise enough.

The refund was completed early this week so it should have cleared by now.

If you want to discuss further, please let me know and i will call you personally.

Thanks again for your understanding

Liquid DPM faulty container

Paid almost £90 for a liquid DPM only for it to arrive and to open the box to find the container with a hole in the bottom and half the liquid seeped out and solidified,was barely enough left to complete the room it was purchased for.

Good price and good product

Good price and good product. However it is pretty unusual these days to have to chase the supplier to receive the product you've paid for....to be fair, the goods were delivered quickly after I emailed Matt direct. Several emails to the generic address were ignored.

Terrific service and product.

I required some chrome paint, to touch up a shower plug drain and subsequently selected Sealants & Tools as they appeared to have the correct paint.
Two days later the product arrived, professionally wrapped and they had even taken the trouble to tape the lid of the paint pot, to prevent spillage. Coincidentally, a previous order from a different source, arrived with paint all over the parcel.
The chrome paint was easy to supply and glistens from my shower tray!
What an absolute pleasure dealing with these people!

Very poor service - incredibly slow

Placed an order for 48 hour tracked delivery which their email said would take 2 to 5 working days. After 5 days and no parcel and royal mail unable to track, I rang them. I was assured it was on its way and should be with me by Tuesday (another 2 days not counting weekend). I had ordered other items from other companies AFTER this and they had already arrived I said that I would cancel if it was not for the fact it was already en route, I was told I could indeed cancel, they would just remove from the palette. He failed to see that this meant that they hadn't posted it! Complete failure in terms of delivery and very poor customer service. Another company will deliver the same item tomorrow for the same postage cost. Would not use again and certainly would not recommend.

Many thanks for your feedback, so sorry we couldn't deliver your item sooner. The order was on a standard 2-5 working day delivery, and was scheduled for Monday (working day number 5).

We have since recalled parcel from the courier and cancelled Mondays delivery. The refund has been completed this morning after your conversation with Aron and we wish you all the best for the future.

Avoid This Company

I ordered 2 tubs of Geofix at a cost of £76.46 on the 18th August. I received confirmation of my order 191112. I also received a confirmation of my payment.
The delivery was expected to take 5 days.
I am still waiting.
I have tried phoning with no answer. I have tried emailing with no replies.
This company should not be allowed to trade.
I strongly advise that this company be avoided at all cost.

Many thanks for your time this morning. Hopefully now after our conversation, you understand that your delay was not on purpose and just an IT error with your order.

Will not use again

Ordered products and initial customer service very good. Informed at early stage if delays and refund offered. Having asked fir refund am still waiting after over a month. They cannot find payment details even though it is on my credit card statement and I have given them the details. Keep getting told everyone working from home which I accept. Am now about to lodge complaint through visa My experience tells me to avoid using this company

Great service!

I ordered three tubs of GEO FIX all weather patio grout and the order was dispatched via courier in the time frame promised. When delivered, the courier company had trashed one of the tubs, breaking the seal on the product (causing it to go off). I emailed and phoned Sealants and Tools Direct and they were wonderful. No quibbles, very apologetic and dispatched a replacement same day. I am sorry for those that have had bad experiences, but I was delighted with the personal service provided to me and would not hesitate to order from them again. I should also add that the product was almost £20 cheaper (a tub) than via Amazon! Thank you!!
