Good morning,
Just to say we are very pleased with our garden building. The quality is better than we were expecting.
The two guys that built it were professional and helpful.
Happy customer!!
Kind regards,

Dear Jonathan,
We wanted to say Thank you! for your help and advice regarding our log cabin. We did it! It looks fantastic and we are looking forward to enjoying it.
We made brand new (wider) fascias due to the roof insulation size. It still needs small finishing touches but we are 'moving in' soon.
All the best
Mark & Miriam, Ingham, Norfolk, NR11, 12x14 Log Cabin 353, 14th July 2022
Dear Andy
I promised you some photos of the finished summerhouse. Here they are. We are really pleased with it, and have had many positive comments from neighbours.
Apologies for the state of the ground in front of it. We have yet to decide on what will be going there (and we need a bit of time to get over the build!).
Thanks again for your help.
Best regards
Julie, Bromyard, HR7, 10x8 Log Cabin 123, 15th September 2021

Hi Andy,
Just a quick note to let you know our log cabin arrived yesterday morning. We haven't erected it yet - a job for the weekend, with some assistance - but it's here and, from what I can see it looks to be of good quality.
Many thanks for all your efforts in nudging to get it made and delivered and for your patience and persistence.

Margaret, Peterborough, PE6, 7x7 Corner Summerhouse 105, 1st June 2021
Good afternoon,
I just wanted to send a big thank you to everyone at summer garden buildings for our recent summerhouse purchase and installation.
We are thrilled with the summerhouse that was installed on 27th April. It looks so smart and we are so pleased to be able to enjoy the garden from there now in all weathers. The quality of the building is excellent and to an exceptional standard. And the installation team were really professional, courteous and had put the summerhouse together really quickly without any hassle. Arranging the delivery date etc through the customer service team was really easy too and everyone has been very professional and polite at each contact we have had with yourselves.
Thanks to everyone involved.
Best wishes,
Jenny, Southam, Warwickshire, CV47, 10x10 Pent Summerhouse 264, 4th May 2021

We are so pleased with the quality of the summerhouse and also the quality of the glass.
I loved the job of erecting the summerhouse which I found very straight forward.

Hello,
Thank you for confirming our correct order of Log Cabin no 138, width 13'9" x depth 9'10". We thank your colleague Jonathan for advising on this beautiful alternative model instead of our first choice, which is so much better for us in our newly landscaped garden. We noticed later that you have a separate heading about widths and depths, stating widths always come first in sizes.
Kind regards,

Hi,
I've just sent a message to complain about a price change, BUT we have just noticed it was a mistake and there is no price change because we have got mixed up over widths and depths! We have now noticed that we may have made the wrong choice of by reversing the width and depth. We want the longest part to be across the front, of 13'9" and the depth to be 9'10".
The problem is that we cannot see from the dimension choices which is what way around.
Please can you confirm what we have ordered and make any financial adjustments as necessary, if we have got it wrong now you know our requirements.
Yours faithfully,
John

Shane,
After my initial nerves, have to say great service and a 9/10 product, we had one board that was warped, but adapted and overcame! Only other comment is that the instructions could do with a re-write, while it is self explanatory there are a couple of quirks that would benefit from more detail. Overall a very happy customer and would definitely use you

Good Morning. Yesterday my summerhouse arrived with Chris, who was on his own as his colleague was off sick. With a little help from myself he erected the building which I found to be very sturdy and well manufactured. Chris was exceptionally friendly and cheerful despite the difficulties, so I have found dealing with your company a pleasure from ordering to the final build. Many thanks. I will definitely be coming to you again when I am ready to build a greenhouse. Best regards

For the attention of Guy,
Further to our telecon, you are aware of the problem we had in that my mobile number on the order was incorrect and we had no knowledge of the delivery. As the base was not ready, the fitters left us the summerhouse which we have now successfully installed. We are very pleased with the product which appears well made and very robust.
As we paid extra to have the summer house erected I am looking for a refund of this cost which I think came to £153. Please confirm asap.
Thank you.

Dear Sirs,
I recently purchased a summerhouse from you with which I am extremely satisfied. The item arrived promptly and with advanced telephone notification, and the quality of the product is excellent. I understood, however, that I was entitled to a free gift with this purchase of an 'Analogue clock with thermometer' which I thought I had selected when I placed the order. Could you please advise me if this is the case.
Yours faithfully

The whole project looks great and thank you for supplying an excellent product at a very reasonable price. Your service throughout was excellent with amazing levels of communication. Very reassuring and helpful. Thanks for everything.

Good morning Jonathan,
Mission accomplished! As these pics illustrate.
We are delighted with the product and your assembly team were brilliant. We have ordered 4 tons of top soil to grade the base away before grassing the area.
We will have no hesitation in recommending your company, products and assembly team.

Hi
Thank you for your very helpful email.
The handle store site is very good and I am sure I will find a replacement.
The summerhouse is looking as good as new, I am particularly pleased with the shingle roof.
Wish I had space for another one! The manufacture of the summer house was so good I made up a saying "if it don't fit you have got the wrong bit".
Regards

Hi
I've tried phoning your mobile but I don't think it works.
Regrettably we have no spare handles from that time ourselves, however we have found two good websites, one of which we have used in the past. They are handlestore.com and ironmongerydirect.co.uk.
You will need to search for a lever handle on a back plate with a cut out for a cylinder lock (also known as a eurolock). Hope this helps.
Sorry we cannot help more.

On Wednesday 20 th September 2017 I had an Apex Summerhouse 180 installed and this was 2-3 weeks before the scheduled date
From first ordering my summerhouse to installing I am highly delighted with the service I have received from the very polite and professional people I have spoken to .
Originally I did not ask for any of the windows to open but soon discovered this was a mistake on my part . After a telephone call to Toby this was sorted for me and within two weeks of my request Matt was here to fix two new windows into my summerhouse that open .
The quality of my summerhouse is brilliant and I have had electricity installed so it can now be my " All Year Round " house .
I cannot praise you and your staff highly enough and would totally recommend them to everyone .

Madelene, Whitstable, Kent, CT5, 8x8 Corner Summerhouse 063, 6th October 2017
I have nothing but praise for this company, from my initial phone call to the erecting of my new summerhouse they could not have been more helpful.
I had called numerous different company but decided on this one because they offered the building/painting and erecting of the summerhouse which saved a lot of valuable time.
I spoke to a gentleman called Guy who explained the different types of summerhouses to me. After discussing it with my husband I decided to go with the Apex Summerhouse 423.
I contacted Guy again and he then talked me through the ordering process explaining what I would need and not need. I was very impressed that he didn't try to sell me everything going, but was very patient and helpful and didn't make me feel rushed to get the order in.
He then gave me a guide of five to seven weeks for the delivery, but said they would be in contact a couple of weeks before the actual delivery date to give me a definite date which is exactly what they did.
On the day of delivery two very polite young men turned up with my summerhouse, checked the area it was to be situated in and then began to erect my new summerhouse in a very professional and tidy manner. Once up and checked they then touched up small areas of my painted house that had been caught in transit.
I cannot praise this company enough for the excellent service I received and I would highly recommend them.

On May 10th I ordered and paid for a summerhouse with various options which included internal and external solar lights which were to be delivered separately. The summerhouse was delivered and installed on July 3rd but in spite of a telephone communication I have still not received the lights so I would like to receive either delivery of the lights within the next seven days or a refund of the £34. The summerhouse is splendid have no complaints about that.
Vairyna, Ludlow, SY8, 7x5 Summerhouse 421, 5th August 2017
EXTRA NOTE:- THE SOLAR LIGHTS HAD BEEN OUT OF STOCK BUT THEY WERE DELIVERED ON MONDAY 7th AUGUST.
We received our summerhouse a few weeks ago and thought we would give some feedback.
We are basically very pleased with it and are enclosing a photo. The instructions were clear and it looks lovely.
Just a couple of problems. One if the rear panels seemed completely wrong. We definitely had it the right way up but nothing seemed to match up with the adjoining one. The slats also extended over the edge of the baton meaning that we couldn't butt it up next to the panel. We had to saw off the overhanging bits of wood which was not easy. Anyway it eventually fitted in and screwed together so got over that problem.
The other thing we should mention is the glazing. After breaking several pieces of glass trying to knock the tiny nails into the beading between the glass and the wood, we were getting quite annoyed. It also looked bad as the nails were splitting the wood. Then we had a brainwave. We stuck all the beading on with no more nails.....and got a wonderful neat finish with no more broken panes. Maybe this would be a better way of fitting the beading.
Anyway....we are very pleased and it is a superb product for the cost. It looks good and is a really lovely addition to the garden.
Pam, Kendal, Cumbria, LA9, 7x7 Corner Summerhouse 082, 1st August 2017

Good Afternoon,
Firstly I would like to thank you for my log cabin very happy with all aspects from ordering to delivery to installation, the one minor issue that the fitter noticed was this window handle has excessive movement which would indicate a fault.
Please send a replacement to the address below and I will forward this one for you to give back to your suppliers.
Best Regards,

Hi ,
I've received the replacement window catch in the post to day and I'd like to send a heartfelt thank you to all for the service and product you have provided , the corner log cabin has now been erected and we are overwhelmed with the quality of the product when compared to other providers selling light weight "Sheds " as summer houses for the same price as this quality product.
All those friends and relatives seeing our new garden refuge have also been very impressed and I've passed on your site details to all.
As promised I've attached a photo of our cabin just so your team of workers get the chance to see some customer feedback and a finished install.
Kind regards
Robert and Tracey, Rothwell, Kettering, NN14, 8x8 Corner Log Cabin 200, 5th September 2016
Brilliant. Thanks Paul!
Will send some pics and write a review when it's all finished. Can that be done via your website?

Hi Lynn,
Thank you for your email. Apologies that there were no instructions for your log cabin in the pack, it is very unusual for them to forget to put them in! I have attached the instructions for your log cabin to this email in a PDF file format. Please let me know if you are unable to open them and I will post a hard copy. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

Dear John
We purchased a cabin from you. I have just got around to having it erected but when we opened the box which had the handles and nails in it I was surprised there is no plan/ instructions in the box. Is this correct or should there have been one in there? If possible could you send a copy or email a copy do we can finally get it put up
Many thanks

Dear Sir,
I recently purchased from your Company a summerhouse which I find to be excellent. The delivery was on time and was very carefully unloaded by your driver.
The quality of the woodwork of your product was perfect and we assembled it this weekend and very impressed with the finished result.
Thanking you to all your staff for their efficiency in the adminstration department.
Yours faithfully,

Thanks for these; I would like to confirm my comments made on the phone, my wife and I are very impressed with this,given the time spent on ensuring the foundation bearers were level and square paid dividends. the product is brilliant, the manufacturing quality, excellent, the assembly instructions very clear,just one suggestion, given that all the fixings have a star head, it would be a good idea if the manufacturer could put a star screwdriver head in the fixings pack.
thanks

Dear Guy,
My log cabin got installed by (INSTALLER 228) & his team yesterday. I'll send some pics to you after it's painted. Everything went very well & end product looks great. (INSTALLER 228) pointed out small manufacturing defects but nothing major. (INSTALLER 228) also squeezed in the side window on either side of the additional door (not as per planning application), I hope it won't be a problem? You were right about (INSTALLER 228), he is a busy man but knows his stuff very well.
Thank you & your team for your help from start to finish. It was my first such project but you were all very helpful & I had a very good customer experience. Excellent!

Hi! Just wanted to say how pleased we are with out 7x5 Apex Summerhouse that was delivered and erected on 17/5/16. Apparently your staff put it up in about an hour which was fantastic. Regards
Ian, Morden, London, SM4, 7x5 Summerhouse 420, 27th May 2016
We took delivery of our 7 x 7 corner summerhouse on 1 May. We were very happy with your delivery service. Although you stated the building would take 14-21 days to arrive, it was delivered less than a week after ordering and we were kept informed throughout.
We found your instruction leaflet very easy to follow and the erection of the building went reasonably well. We were however, very disappointed with the quality of the window and door hinges which had no strength in them whatsoever. In addition, the door handle instructions were incorrect as they said to drill an 8mm hole to put the bar through but in actual fact the hole required was 12mm. The screws sent to fix the handle to the door were also too long for the thickness of the door and we had to go out and purchase our own.
Our other complaint was the quality of the window beading which was extremely poor, being of different thicknesses causing some to be proud of the door, most pieces were starting to split and some pieces weren't even long enough meaning there were slight gaps in some of the corners of the windows.
We do however, appreciate that this was not an expensive product and indeed, we would not have been happy if it had been more expensive. On the whole, we are happy with it, especially now that it has been painted in a bright colour.
Thank you.

Dear Summer Garden Team
My sincere apologies for not writing sooner to thank you for the replacement window, the young man that delivered it was a very nice person and very helpful.
I didn't know if you would be interested to see the finished results of two old pensioners, who would like to thank you for all your help and advice during the build. We've never attempted anything like this before, and the decking was a challenge, but we got there in the end and are happy with our results.
We are very pleased with our purchase and hope to spend many happy hours in our new cabin. It's tidied up what was a rather untidy corner of our garden!
Thank you again.

I'm just writing to say that the young man who delivered our cabin was absolutely brilliant. So helpful and kind that he deserves a recommendation. What a shame there aren't more like him in the world!
There was a couple of minor breakages on the corner of a couple of the smaller roof sections, but I think we can rectify them. Other than that, I think the rest is ok, though we haven't managed to check everything yet.
We'll let you know if there are any serious problems.
Many thanks

You deserve a 5 star review. The log cabin you supplied not only looks fantastic, a beautiful structure that has become the envy of my neighbours, but it is is also a high quality product and tremendous value for money. Good delivery service also included. Needless to say I am very pleased with the result. The fitter you recommended and his crew, also deserve 5 stars, they made a wonderful job of assembling the log cabin and were efficient, helpful, and polite.
Anyone who is contemplating buying a log cabin or summerhouse should use this company and this fitter.

Super looking House, lets hope we get the Summer to enjoy it or perhaps I could order a good summer from Summer Garden Buildings as they have seem to have all the skills to do it!

Dear Sirs
I felt I had to e-mail you to thank you for your courtesy in every department regarding the ordering, delivery and erection of my summerhouse.
Everyone I spoke to or had contact with was extremely polite, efficient and helpful and my summerhouse was delivered on the promised date and time. Your employee who erected the summerhouse did so with the minimum of fuss, was very courteous and very tidy in his workmanship.
I am extremely pleased with the result and look forward to spending many hours relaxing and reading in my own little space!!
I wonder if I might ask you if the summerhouse ever needs sealing or painting at all to preserve the wood.
I will not hesitate to recommend you should any of my friends or colleagues require a summerhouse or similar.
Yours faithfully,

Our shed was installed yesterday by your recommended installer Installer 229, who did a very good job. Unfortunately, he couldn't complete it because the 16 vertical wood beadings to hold the glass in place were not the correct length. Those delivered were 35.5 cm at their longest point. The length we need is 38 cm. Could you please post the replacement beadings to me.

I ordered the 10x8 model number 079. We were a little worried about buying such a large, expensive and major garden feature based on a small photograph and a description on a web page. From my initial enquiry to the final delivery and build the service was 1st class. The Summerhouse looks amazing and has been christened with a small gathering already!

Rosemary, Cambridge, CB4, 8x15 Made to Measure Log Cabin 290, 22nd July 2011
Hi Barry,
It's been a couple of weeks since we spoke, and apologies for the delay in coming back to you.
I cannot thank you enough for your time and effort providing the quote for a replacement summerhouse.
The meeting with the loss adjuster went very well. She loved the project, and was also very specific in saying that if we were to receive a cash payout, that we don't necessarily need to spend it on the summerhouse! Having never dealt with an insurance claim before, I was not aware of that!.
The past 2 weeks have proved challenging, as our funding for the beaver project has been compromised, and this situation - which seemed at first like a disaster... may prove a blessing in disguise as we are potentially able to fund the beaver enclosure with the settlement.
I wanted to explain the process, and reassure you that my intentions have always been honourable, but that the importance of the beavers at this stage of the project far outweighs the (delightful) luxury of a new summerhouse. Had we been bound into replacing it, I would have most definitely come back to you!
I hope you can understand, and will certainly contact you again if we should need any garden structures in the coming years (which is highly likely). I will recommend you to anyone interested in a greenhouse or gazebo.
Perhaps if you are ever in the neighbourhood, you could drop by and I will make you a super lunch to say thank you.
Kind regards,

Hi,
We recently bought a 8' x 8' Corner Summerhouse from you and wanted to let you know how delighted we are with the kit. We feel that the summerhouse is excellent value for money and we are particularly impressed with the quality of the finish for a summerhouse in this price bracket. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone in our area. Now almost complete, the summerhouse has been admired by our neighbours on all sides.
We have only to add the door latch/handle now but unfortunately we have lost the appropriate page of the instructions! I would be very grateful if you could either e-mail us the relelvant part of the instructions or even send us a photocopy by post just to allow us to complete the latch assembly?

I must say that he was so helpful and very patient as I kept changing my mind! He organised everything for me so well and nothing was too much trouble. The Summerhouse and shed arrived in May exactly when I wanted them too and again they were delivered and put up so quickly and efficiently. There was one slight problem but this was rectified straight away. We have had so much pleasure already from our Summerhouse and it has been so greatly admired by friends. I am so pleased with the quality of it and I can truly say that it is one of the best things that I have ever purchased! THANKYOU to you all!!
ps. If there was one criticism I think that you should display them like this rather than just empty!

Dear Paul,
Thankyou for your explanation and apology concerning the delay of our cabin. Much appreciated.
We have had 3 good dry days to erect the cabin and agree it is of good quality, with clear instructions. We were able to do it just the 2 of us. It looks great.
Christine, Cullompton, Devon, EX15, 10x10 Log Cabin 125, 3rd October 2009
Just a note to say that we are very pleased with our Summerhouse.
The build quality is very good and it looks great in the garden.
Also, the chap who delivered and erected it was very efficient and pleasant.
What would have taken me days, took him about an hour.
Another very satisfied customer.
Regards,

Just to say I`m really delighted with my lovely new summerhouse!
It is beautiful - size, colour, everything and complimentary to my house.
The 2 men finished work just a wee while ago and I must give them my praise.
They were so efficient and so courteous - in fact proper gentlemen !
Thank you again for all your helpful advice.
Kindest regards

Hi John,
I visited the family yesterday and i just wanted to pass on my sincere thanks for the fantastic work you as well as the fitters have done with the log cabin for this family. Mum was really pleased with the outcome and was "singing your praises".
I hope the full payment as agreed have reached to you as the supplier and to the fitters.
Once again, thank you.

Hi
I received the parts I required on Friday to complete the building of the summerhouse.
Please thank all those involved for a speedy response.
Great customer service !
I just wanted to thank you for the summer house which was delivered bang on time.
I have owned a number of Summer Houses in the past and this one is the best I have had. The standard of workmanship is extremely high and the finish is great.
I would also like to let you know that I was very impressed by the two guys who built the summer house, they were quick, professional and did a great job.
All in all a very pleasant experience and I have a Summer House that will see many years of service.
Thank you

We are delighted with the new summer house and also the service provided by the two men you sent who were efficient, cheerful and undeterred by our slightly unusual delivery arrangements!
Please pass on our comments to them and thank you for your help with this project.
Helen, London, W6, 20x8 Apex Summerhouse 11, 12th July 2008
EXTRA NOTE:- THIS SUMMERHOUSE WAS SPECIALLY MADE IN SMALL SECTIONS AND NEEDED TO BE PASSED OVER A 5ft HIGH GARDEN WALL TO ACCESS THE GARDEN.
Thank you for sending me my order confirmation by royal mail. Someone must have put in some extra work on our behalf, and I'll apologise for making that necessary. I thought it unusual that I was not requested to enter an email address, but I just missed that input; I wasn't trying to be awkward or make a point etc.
We saw a similar product in a local showroom, but your's looks just as nice, and much better value for money; so we are looking forward to receiving it next month.
Thank you again for your service.
Regards

Summerhouse in every other way more than satisfactory. Hope glass will now come and we would be happy to recommend this transaction/company fully to friends and colleagues. Maybe we will all get some sun this summer!

Further to the recent matters associated with our summer house, I write to confirm that I am now satisfied with the remedial works carried out by your personnel.
I would take this opportunity to stress how helpful and professional the two erectors were who attended to our problem (Martin and Jason I believe).
Yours
Derek, Battle, East Sussex, TN33, Hipped Summerhouse 91, 30th October 2007
We recently took delivery of a corner summerhouse and we are delighted with the service, speed and efficiency you provided. Most of all we're delighted with the finished product. Thanks.
Could you let me know which paint/preservative you recommend?

Hello there John,
You called me yesterday and asked if I would act as a reference for another potential client, John (SURNAME). I am glad to say that I have just spoken with him and have put his mind to rest in terms of purchasing the 592 model that I have. So expect another order coming your way!!!!
Best wishes,
Shirley, Elstree, Hertfordshire, WD6, Summerhouse 592, 4th September 2007
Dear Rob and Peter
I just wanted to say a Big Thank You for all your work on this part of the project - the summerhouse looks fantastic and both I and my family look forward to spending many years enjoying it. Both your workers John and Dennis were polite, tidy and worked hard to complete the unit even down to the finer details. I am hoping to come to the exhibition in Birmingham in September and understand that you will be showcasing there and perhaps at some point we might meet.
Once again thank you.
Shirley, Elstree, Hertfordshire, WD6, Summerhouse 592, 20th June 2007
Hi
Just to let you know my summer house was sent to me earlier than expected which was great had no problems at all with it, or delivery. Also the men who built it were great and very helpful. Thanks.

I would like to thank you very much for a lovely summerhouse delivered correctly to Bath (POSTCODE) on a freezing cold morning but the lorry driver was really helpful. Thank you everyone for making this order a pleasure to receive.
Annabel, Bath, Somerset, BA2, 10x6 Summerhouse 91, 20th April 2007
Hi Barry and all of your team
I would like to thank you for your help you gave me on the purchase of the log cabin, my reason for buying the log cabin as follows, i am disabled and i am house bound, my computer room was in the spare bed room and i did not have the room to work, all so we could not have family to stay over night. What a difference it makes, now that i am in the log cabin, it is double glazed, insulated, and all the elect points i need
My point being this could only have happen due to the service you and your company gave me from the start there was help, and until the day it arrived there was always help on hand i was just not a customer
Please if any one would like to get the same service as i received buy your log cabin from this team
Well Barry we sign off now, ONCE AGAIN ONE BIG THANK YOU AND YOUR TEAM
Regards
Tony, Fareham, Hampshire, PO15, 10x8 Log Cabin 17, 6th March 2007
Received log cabin 28mm no 17. Driver very helpful with storage and construction hints. What a great bit of kit! Put it up over the weekend using the easy to use instructions and we are very impressed with its quality and the service from yourselves. Thanks.

Hello Barry
As promised photos of my lovely Summer House. We are delighted with the results and would have pleasure in recommending your product to any future customers.
From delivery to finished house was an easy task. We had it erected in one day. All done mid December. Official opening on Christmas Eve with Christmas music, lights and 8 guests enjoying the fantastic smell of the cedar.
When you have any enquires in Scotland and they would like to view a completed summerhouse please give me a ring on (PHONE NUMBER). We do have access from the road to the garden.
Kind Regards
Anne
PS Just had a thought!! Maybe I could rent it out for the Edinburgh Festival.
