I would tell anyone to never use this…

I would tell anyone to never use this company. I had the worse experience ever. It was poor from start to finish. The guy that came out to give me a quote was not procise on what was going to be done. I asked a number of times can you not tell me if the roof wood was going to be changed. He said no but really he should have said it should all be changed as some of the wood was damaged at the ends and I showed him this. They made 3 mistakes on the quote they gave me. A window was missing on one. The roof colour was wrong and the price of the window changed. I kept them due to the reviews all looking good. They came on Thursday but left by about 4 and on Friday I was not in but was told it was completed. They had missed silicone off the windows. The roof at the back was exposed. They had not done fixing screws in the roof. The roof was up on one side. The fascia boards were poorly done. The front door was attached to the old wood which worried me as it was damaged by water. They used 2 types of silicone inside the garage and when I complained I was told it was not 2 types but 2 colours. Which I found to be a rude reply.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. I’m sorry to hear you feel this way.

We work hard to be clear at the quotation stage and have a full process in place to ensure jobs are communicated well and run smoothly. This was a full renovation with multiple elements, and it’s normal for the scope and specification to evolve as options are discussed. Once the final decisions were agreed, the appropriate written quotation was issued, accepted, and the work was completed in line with the quotation and job sheet.

Following the installation, Danny attended site and went through each point raised with your partner before carrying out any remedial works. Some of the items raised related to manufacturer requirements, and some of the requested changes were not best practice. Where appropriate, we were still happy to make reasonable alterations and minor improvements, and we allocated a full-day visit to ensure every point was addressed and resolved.

Once completed, Danny walked through everything again internally and externally with your partner, and no further issues were raised at that time. Following this visit, the project was reviewed, agreed, and the account was settled in August 2025.

All work is guaranteed and, if you ever have any concerns in the future, please contact us and we will be happy to help.

I have had a very bad experience with…

I have had a very bad experience with Garage Solutions, Thornton. They removed my old garage and did do a good job. However, after the new garage base was laid and Hansons arrived and erected the new garage it was evident immediately that there was a problem with the base as the garage did not fit on it properly. The back left side of the garage was barely on the base while the front left panel, at the side of the garage door, was not even touching the base but just floating about above it. Hanson staff said whoever had laid the base had started the garage ramp too soon. In order to support it they placed two wooden wedges under the panel. I complained to Garage Solutions who contacted Hansons who attended and informed me that the base was out of true, in other words the fault was not theirs but Matts at Garage Solutions. Matt attended some four weeks later and concluded that the garage was out of true, in other words it was not his fault. He said they could correct it by moving the garage. There is little to no base at the back and only ramp at the front of the garage. It is surely impossible to remedy THEIR mistake without first extending the base either at the front or at the back. Please potential customers be wary of this company. Their work is poor and they might say they will help you but they don’t. I would definitely never recommend this company or use their services again. My garage remains out of true on an out of true base, anyone who wishes to view it before they consider purchasing from Garage Solutions/Hansons is welcome to view

I’m sorry you were unhappy with the experience. We understand how concerning it is if a new building doesn’t appear to be sitting correctly straight after installation.

For clarity, parts of your review don’t reflect what happened on site. After your call, I attended promptly to inspect the garage and we asked Hansons to return to reposition the building correctly. A return visit was agreed and booked in.

While working nearby, I also attended with concrete ready to extend the base if that proved necessary. During our joint inspection we measured up and it became clear the garage itself was out of square. At that point, the conversation became difficult and you left site. Hansons attended as scheduled the following morning at 9am, however there was no access because you were not present. We then called & emailed to continue assisting, but didn’t receive a response.

When you later came back to us, we continued to help and, as requested, I returned to add concrete to the rear and Hansons then attended again to move the garage into the correct position.

This wasn’t the ideal scenario and we are genuinely sorry for the disruption, but we did not ignore the issue or “turn our back” — we took action, attended site multiple times, coordinated with the manufacturer and completed the remedial work.

If you’d like us to review anything further, please contact us directly with your job reference so we can help.

An excellent company to deal with

An excellent company to deal with. Matt and Emily were very friendly, helpful and professional throughout the whole process of constructing a concrete base and arranging a garage build.
After sales service has also been excellent. I really appreciated a follow up phone call to discuss my satisfaction and establish any teething problems.
I would definitely recommend Garage Solutions.
