    Gary and his team have put a new shed up for us this morning. They were very professional and have done a fantastic job. Materials used are of excellent quality and the shed looks lovely.

    Sue Bothwell

    The summer house and huge workshop they built in our garden are absolutely stunning we would not hesitate in recommending this company. Every member of staff are lovely extremely knowledgeable and listen to what you want down to the finest detail.

    Fiona Donaldson

    I've owned a Paterson shed for just over twenty years now and it has been great, but two or three of the planks recently showed signs of needing to be replaced. A visit to Paterson and they cut me four planks to size. I'll get them fitted and hopefully my shed will be going for another 20 years. Great service and very helpful.

    Geoff Harris

    Would like to say a big thank you to Gary and his team for the outstanding and excellent service that they done from start to finish, on our new shed, highly recommended for sure, Thank you once again.

    Lorna McPherson

    Gary and his boys delivered and erected our garden shed on Thursday. They did a fantastic job very professional tidied up afterwards. We recently moved house so needed a new shed. We purchased one 20 years ago from Paterson's and it's still going strong at our old house. Would definitely recommend this company no hard sell just great quality and service.

    Bill Bennett

    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.
