Crane Garden Buildings Recenzje 

I was looking at a beautiful ex display greenhouse at the Brampton Garden Centre. Whilst the price is certainly premium, the quality knocked the socks off anything else i've looked at. And the service from Anna was second to none. She asked me lots of questions which was really useful and meant that I knew delivery and installation would have gone smoothly, and all the accessories and options were exactly to my requirements. She couldn't have been more helpful or attentive.

Unfortunately, i've decided my garden is too small for it 😭but I will certainly buy from them in the future (next house!).

Friendly, professional and competent service...very reassuring.

All very impressive to start with. When we bought our shed less than five years ago they didn’t offer the length of warranty they do now. Already leaking in several places. Door lock is rusted and gutttering is so poorly fitted it’s falling apart. We paid thousands and it definitely wasn’t worth it. We asked if they could repair it but as we’re in Wilts’, we’d have to pay for hotel accommodation for repair team as well as the repair fee. They said it simply wouldn’t be worth it, how right they are.

The experience we had at Cranes was first class. Both Jess and Chloe were extremely helpful, understanding of our requirements and were also very friendly and courteous. We would have no hesitation in recommending them to future clients

Crane is generally easy to deal with -- the people are all pleasant and efficient. The sales process went fine but then I had to demolish the old shed and clear the site. I got that done but was quite uncertain about the process of laying the concrete base which Crane were doing too. What wasn't clear and caused anxiety was not being sure what exactly they were going to do.
Having seen the process I still have some qualms which are worth spelling out.
1. They didn't do any ground preparation so that's all down to the customer -- levelling, clearing and compacting.
2. They used decking boards as a form for the concrete. These were pegged into the ground and then left in place afterwards. They say that they are treated but I'm not convinced that they will last as they are in contact with the ground. They do provide an attractive appearance initially though.
3. No rebar or metal reinforcement was used. Instead, some glass fibre was put into the mix to give the concrete resilience against cracking. Time will tell if that's good enough.
4. The concrete was not covered and no instructions given about watering it during the curing period. My understanding is that concrete takes weeks to cure fully and is best kept damp throughout. I covered it with a polythene sheet during the curing period and this worked out well as it also kept the surface clean from garden debris.
So, having taken extra care, the base worked out well and the assembly of the shed went quite smoothly. It looks fine now and I've painted the base boards and the floor joist exterior with wood preservative to give them extra protection. But I'm not convinced that it will last as long as the previous shed which had a foundation of hard core and concrete base inside a brick surround. That lasted reasonably well for 50 years or so.
Another option they provide, which I didn't explore is having a metal frame base. I still don't understand the pros and cons of this.
So, my advice is to go into these issues well in advance if you want a solid foundation which will last for many years.

Our experience from start to finish with Crane Garden Buildings was nothing short of fantastic. From our initial visit to the Huntingdon outlet where Sam spent time talking us through the options available to us through to ordering, delivery and installation, the experience was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble for the team and Crane have surpassed all of our expectations and we would always recommend Crane Garden Buildings. Fantastic and thank you!! Gary and David London.

Richard was excellent and if I’d had any doubts about dealing with the company his competence and professionalism made me confident to continue. He asked me what I planned to store in my shed and we discussed position and dimensions in detail. Also he gave me some good advice regarding external lighting. He listens - very important. .Am looking forward to the installation of my shed

I am so so happy and pleased with my new shed I’m delighted. The shed looks amazing in my garden. The best thing I’ve ever bought. I am over the moon with happiness.
Tanya was so helpful and patient with me helping me from day one.
The two workmen were absolutely professionals at their job so polite and friendly. They did not stopped working. I couldn’t wished for better people / company to do the job. Well done boys, Tanya, and all at Crane Gardens

Good communication

Great customer service. Tim really helped us with our choice of building and made the process a pleasure.

Our initial discussions with Esther at the Nottingham site were and continue to be very helpful. No pushy sales operation in play and whilst the garden buildings seem quite expensive, they appear to be well constructed and as described 'on the label'. We have yet to take delivery and installation of our chosen build but Esther is keeping in touch to ensure our specific requirements are met. Once installed we will be happy to provide a follow up review.

From the design stage to the finished Summer Chalet, Crane's personal care, attention to detail, and quality were outstanding. Highly recommended'

Well it helps that the products are of a very high quality. The salesperson was very informative and friendly.

On entering the site we immediately had confidence that this was going to be a good experience. We were met by the salesman (Joe?) who helped us to choose our summerhouse, showing us all the options available. We were very impressed with the quality of the workmanship. We were able to make all the necessary arrangements and pay the required deposit without any difficulties. We would highly recommend Crane Garden Buildings for quality and service.

Very knowledgeable and helpful sales person at the sales office. Excellent customer service following our deposit and prompt response to a change of design. We look forward to the delivery and installation of the building when it is ready.

Yes, Excellent Service from Don and totally efficient.

A helpful, polite and tidy team who created very high quality buildings. We used their groundworks team for the preparation which made things very simple and was very well done. Would recommend and use again. The best experience we have had in 25 years of getting building works done.

Great flexibility and understanding of our needs.

Crane were excellent from start to finish. They were so helpful and knowledgable with the planning stages, extremely thorough with checking designs and layout in the design stage and quick, efficient and extremely polite with the building stage. They were a pleasure to work with and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
