Reputations are not built overnight
In Referenceline's view, this track record is more important than the ratings. Don't be impressed by a few old reviews which may not be representative.  Look for firms with a commitment to asking for feedback - good or bad - from their customers.  We recommend that you look for a track record of ratings and reviews in at least 9 of the last 12 months and that you should not be too concerned about an isolated negative review.  Ask the firm for their side of the story.
 


 
Good Practice
Businesses have a legal responsibility to treat you fairly, but it's often hard to know what questions to ask or what standards to expect.  They are the experts and you should be able to rely on them to help you make decisions.  These questions explain the commitments that this business has made to follow a code of practice and they will help you understand what you have a right to expect.
 
Charges: 100%
Before starting work, did the firm explain the charges including labour, materials, callout & VAT (as appropriate)?
 
Timing: 97%
Before starting work, did the firm explain when the work was expected to start and finish?
 
Payment: 96%
Before starting work, did the firm explain how to pay (e.g. cash, cheque, etc.)?
 
Reliable: 97%
During the work, did the firm keep their promises, explaining and agreeing any changes about the work, costs or timing where necessary?
 
Invoice: 80%
On completion, did the firm give you an invoice showing the cost of materials, labour and VAT?
 
Guarantee: 73%
On completion, did the firm give you a guarantee for a specified amount of time, or usage (where applicable)?
You can see how many customers have said "Yes" in answer to each question, but please don't expect 100% in every case.  Nobody's perfect and some customers may not be completely sure about the answer.  It's more important that you understand these questions and discuss them with the business so that you both agree what good service means for you.  A responsible business will be happy to explain the details to you and it's always better to clarify these points upfront to avoid misunderstandings later on.

Plan provide and install an 8ft x 10ft pent roofed shed

"We were recommended to use Balmuir Sheds by a family member who had also purchased a shed from them.

From the point of contact with Alex discussing the type of shed to choose, to the online planning, we couldn't have asked for better treatment.

A very professional and friendly service and would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to purchase a high quality, bespoke and affordable shed.

We are delighted with it

Manufacture and installation of bespoke shed/summerhouse combination

"Excellent service only company that actually came and looked at the site and measured up and gave advice.

A quality bespoke product at a reasonable cost. Local company with premises you can visit to see their products.

Workers did a wonderfully professional job dismantling and removing old shed and installing new one.

Excellent service from first contact to installation. I am very happy with the process and outcome. Would highly recommend. Very happy!"

Manufactured and erected 4.5x3m summerhouse. Removed old structure and replaced with new in the space of 3 hours over 2 days. Left garden and driveway tidy afterwards.

"Start to finish Alex and his squad have been top notch. Alex visited, measured and quoted quickly. Deposit payment was smooth and date of installation was agreed.

I was quote a needy customer regarding scheduling as we had a full and tight calander of home improvements to organise but Alex was cheerful and helpful throughout.

Old summerhouse dismantled and garden tidied one afternoon (1 hour) new, massive and magnificent, summerhouse built the following morning (2 hours) and again everything left tidy.

Squad departed with advice on suitable fixings for internal decoration advance reminder to get in touch nicely any problems. Balance paid smoothly."

Shed

"Wouldn’t use again. The communication when ordering the shed was fine and we got the shed earlier than planned. But I am very disappointed with the finished product.

There was a very noticeable sized hole on the front door. They filled the hole with some sort of filler. But it looks terrible! For nearly £1000 it is shocking that they are happy to leave it like that.

I contacted Alex to inform him, he said he would send out his guys to have a look. They appeared for literally two minutes and left, all they seemed to do was clean some of the filler that had slid down the door.

I ordered the shed on behalf of my 70-year-old parents, wish I had waited on the waiting list for [another company] who did my own shed."

10ft x 8ft shed supplied and erected

"The team provided a great service and were quick in putting the shed up on the day.

Alex helped out when I was let down last minute by the company installing the shed base. He suggested another company who could fitb this in on short notice and he pushed in shed installation back a week to allow for this."

Design and build shed to fit marked area in garden. Shed to have two sections, separated by partition wall Larger section to have double doors two windows on front and also an additional side window. Design and build ramp for easy access over door lip to make access easier for bikes/wheelchairs etc

"Contacted Alex at Balmuir Sheds for a quote for a bespoke garden shed with two separate rooms.

Arranged a time for a visit a few days later and come over to discuss my requests and explained what he had to offer and what he would be able to come up with.

After a few days of thought, I messaged to go ahead with the shed, with a few tweaks and he was more than happy to make the changes I requested.

Told me once building of the shed had started he would be in touch.
This gave me time to get the garden all sorted and ready for the shed being built which was perfect.

Short time later, a lot shorter than expected, Alex popped round to see the area where I had been sorting out for the shed.
Said build was about to start and would be a few weeks.
Literally 3 days later I received an email asking if I would like a delivery that day which was great.

Few hours later, boys turned up, unloaded the van and started building which was totally unexpected, due to the size of the shed I presumed it would be a wood delivery and not a same day drop off and build.

After only a few hours, the shed was up and roof all felted and secure.
Absolute fantastic job.

Just awaiting the final finishing pieces for the lower sides of the shed once I have finished off the surrounding borders and also for the ramp so I can push in things with wheels with a bit more ease.

Absolutely fantastic service with very high quality materials and workmanship.
Would highly recommend and will be back for the next addition to the garden to be build in the very near future.

Thanks once again.
11/10⭐️

Ordering and installing a shed

"Lovely shed but throughout the process the owners communication was poor. There was not much improvement in the aftersales when a problem occurred. The owners attitude and delivery of customer service needs a huge improvement!"

Thanks for your feedback Mr M this is something we will strive to rectify.

You were 53 days late on paying deposit for shed order after special offer had expired.

10 x 8 ft shed
Three windows inside partition.
 

"Wanted garden shed / lady cave for storage and to relax in.
Built to my requirements and is perfect.
A few more deep nail holes than expected but all filled and painted over now.
Slight extra wait for completion but to be expected due to current wood shortage and demand.
Many thanks."
