Bought a building for an art studio. £9000. It arrived late with parts missing. The finish was rough and now after only two years the roof is leaking. Only one year guarantee, so until I can find more... See more

Great service so far, thanks GBC

Jon was very friendly and helpful, he was able to answer all our questions and we felt he was honest and trustworthy. Communication was great. We have purchased a garden building, leadtime is long which is the only negative. Thanks GBC.

Trimetals Shed purchased

James at the Oxford branch was very helpful, he gave me advice on the shed quality and specifications. Even though I don’t live in the Oxfordshire county, I was happy and confident with my sister shed she purchased from GBC a year ago. The customer service she received was excellent, plus the shed looks strong and sturdy.

Fantastic service from Lyam at our local GBC showroom within Dobbies, Aberdeen. He was knowledgeable and very helpful from the first day we viewed the cabins. He listened and guided us on everything from the base right up to the types of paint. We looked at a few different companies but none of them compared to the service we received from the outset with GBC. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent service

Excellent service from Amy during the ordering process for our shed / greenhouse. Responsive, knowledgable and helpful. Haven't received the product yet so this is a service review rather than product reviews.

So far so good

So far so good. Clear understanding provided of what is required of us for the delivery of our garden room before committing to the sale. I felt that they wanted to ensure the best outcome rather than just make the sale.

The team took the time to run through the requirements to make sure we could comply so that we were under no misconceptions and will successfully be able to receive our building

The sales lady

The sales lady, Liz, understood our wishes and redesigned the summerhouse to suit. Let's hope I can write another good review when the building is delivered and erected.

5 star service from Dobbies and The Greenhouse People

I ordered a greenhouse through Dobbies in Aberdeen. The service I received from both Neil and Liam was first class, both went out of their way to send brochures and give advice before placing my order and keeping me up to date about delivery. Delivery from the greenhouse people, (the company ) was excellent arrived at 9.30 on day promised.Thanks also to Ian the driver who unloaded and carried everything in for us. Would not hesitate to recommend Dobbies and The Greenhouse People .

Excellent and cordial attention…

Excellent and cordial attention provided by your employee when my wife and I attended and purchased our garden shed from GBC's Abingdon facility. Looking forward to receiving the completed building in the new year.

NEED A GREENHOUSE-SEE ANITA AT GBC HUNTINGDON (Dobbies)Last November we bought a Castle…

Last November we bought a Castle Penrith greenhouse from GBC Huntingdon (Dobbies). Anita was extremely helpful, non pushy, gave us lots of advice, and even provided a list of names of firms who would erect,& put down a base. Everything went like clockwork and the service we received was first class, reliable and very much appreciated. Since then the colour and design of our greenhouse has been much admired by friends.However, the other day to my horror whilst strimming the lawn a pebble shattered a glass panel .Not knowing a tempered glass supplier locally I phoned GBC and was relieved to find Anita was still there and explained the problem. Amazingly she remembered me and within 3 days obtained a panel for me.! So not only was her pre sales service 5 Star but her after sales service was incredible. Thank You Anita !!
