log cabin smgardenbuildings

DATMAN_2

Hi all

Thinking of buying a 7m x 5m log cabin for a games room/gym.

Was looking at Dunster House until I read reviews on this company here.

See that smgardenbuildings are advertising heavily on ebay. Anyone used this company? Seems to be have set up in last 5 months or so.

Don't accept credit cards other than via google checkout, paypal or moneybookers so there is no s75 protection.

thanks

I have a friend who got a summerhouse from here and was very very impressed

They don't do large sizes.

Have emailed them - but no reply!

smgardenbuildings.co.uk appears to be doing good quality cabins at very reasonable prices but not sure if they will deliver once ordered! Why don't these companies realise that most consumers now want to pay by direct credit card payments on big items!!

Hello
I used Viking sheds a couple of years ago in Stafford. Very pleased with the quality and delivery etc. May have something to float your boat or maybe not.

I used Keops (based near Evesham) two years ago and I could not fault the service or product they supplied. They kept me informed all the way throughout. We built the concrete based and they built the double glazed insulated cabin.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! bought a cabin from these guys back at the beginning of July and no sign of it and now struggling to get a refund. They said 4 weeks maximum for delivery but it has now been 9 and just keep getting same stories, its on its way, no its not, they sent the wrong one etc etc.

NIGHTMARE. No matter how polite etc the staff are, don't be fooled, they either have no idea what is going on or they just keep your money for a few months, get the interest, the take an age to refund you to squeeze the most they can.

Hope that may be of help, dont fall for the 'niceness' and promises.

lots of annoyed 'customers'....I say customers, but it's been one way so far. Customer hands over money + no log cabin ever appears
Then you have the hassle of trying to get a refund, which you're totally in their hands with.
Save yourself the grief & don't bother with them

@gweilo thanks for the Keops recommendation, I'm very impressed by their website and research so far I haven't found a bad review on the internet, unlike so many other log cabin company's. I've requested further information at this stage.

I'm looking for a 5m x 4m log cabin that can be used all year round as an office/playroom/den/storage.

Has anyone else purchased from Keops? www.logcabins.co.uk

Not sure what to do for the base, concrete slabs seems to be a lot of hassle

Wouldn't advertise that qually that openly here if I were you. You'll get all sorts of requests for help with tax returns LoL.

Cheers

thanks, quickly deleted...

Any reviews on Keops?
How much should I expect to pay for a 4m x 5m concrete base?
