    Lovely reviews
    from happy customers!

    As always, we are delighted with our new shed from Paterson Garden Buildings, with the excellent personal service, and with the speed and efficiency with which it was put up.

    Marjory Maxwell

    Just had out timber garage built and erected by Gary and his team, best quality timber buildings I've seen ,well worth the cost. Waited a couple of months from order but we were kept well informed of progress. Work was carried out on the dates given and site left clean and tidy. Can't fault Paterson Garden Buildings in anyway, everyone we met or spoke to were very helpful & pleasant. I will definitely use their services in the future.

    Iain Fraser

    Staff were professional, knowledgeable, skilled and reliable. They did the whole job from foundations to electrical. They left the place clean and tidy every night. Very happy with the final product and have used it every day since. The build quality will mean it last for years and the insulation means it will still be used in the winter.

    Elspeth Petrie

    Very professional company, well organised, fantastic workmanship, and a very good tidy up after their work is finished, their office manager Danielle. Was very professional on the phone to me keeping me updated on every move and time of what's happening, I was advised on a few points and I took it on board, for which I am grateful, thier price was very competitive. I personally would highly recommend them.

    Geoff McGuire

    From start to finish this has been a first-class example of a business doing everything right. Help with the choice of a suitable summerhouse, information on the base required, keeping in touch with progress of constructing the building and delivering and assembling it were all done flawlessly. The standard of construction is something to be proud of. Thanks to all the team!

    Blair Cramond

    Very happy with new shed from Paterson Garden Buildings. Gary was interested in delivering what I needed, from laying the right foundation through to the shed dimensions, and was very accommodating to adapt shed to bespoke height requirements. Great communication from Danielle and a very fast turnaround from ordering to shed set up (less than 2 weeks!). Would recommend.
