Hi Barry,

Thank you for your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear you were disappointed following assembly. From our records, the only contact we received advised that the issue had already been rectified during installation and, unfortunately, no images or further details were provided at the time to allow us to review or investigate the concern.

Without the opportunity to assess the issue before it was altered, we are limited in what we can verify or action retrospectively. That said, we always encourage customers to contact us as soon as any concerns arise so we can assist promptly and provide appropriate support.

If you are able to share any further information or images, we would still be happy to take another look for you.

Kind regards,
Shire Garden Buildings

We’re glad to hear our team was able to support you along the way and that everything arrived ahead of schedule in the end, even with the earlier communication hiccup. It’s also great to know you’re happy with the build quality.

We’re really sorry about the issues with the instructions though, we completely understand how frustrating that must have been. Your feedback is super helpful, and we’ll definitely be taking a closer look at how we can make them clearer and easier to follow.

Thanks again for your feedback, and if you ever need anything, just give us a shout!

Lovely Summerhouse

Summer House delivered on desired date which was helpful as I had landscapers in helping me to assemble. Looks great but two pieces of timber missing which landscaper managed to purchase similar at a nearby timber merchant. Doors not closing properly though. So a little wood had to be shaved off to rectify.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that your summerhouse was delivered on your preferred date and that it’s looking great!

We’re very sorry to hear about the missing timber and the door alignment issues. While it’s great that your landscaper was able to find a solution, this is not the standard experience we aim to provide, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention.

We’ll review this internally to help prevent similar issues for future customers. If there’s anything further we can do to assist or support your summerhouse, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Best regards,

Shire
