Poor communication after order


The delivery was much quicker than expected, which was a pleasant surprise.

However, there was no confirmation of purchase or estimated delivery date. I only received an email on the morning of delivery, and it came under a different company name, which made me think it might be a scam.

If I had been at work, I could easily have missed the delivery as there was no prior notice. It also wasn’t made clear that a missed delivery would incur a £70 charge—I only discovered this on Trustpilot after becoming concerned about the lack of communication.

Clearer updates and upfront information about delivery schedules and charges would greatly improve the experience.

Great service,

Order my slabs, quick & easy.
Got told a delivery date.
Free delivery which was great.
Ordered on the Monday Evening, slabs were delivered on the Friday, I wasn't in but the slabs were left on my drive, securely bound on a pallet and a photograph of delivery,
Great service.

Don’t buy from them

Don’t buy from them
They add extra £95 per pallet and nobody tells you!!!!!! We pay £1300 for delivery how crazy is that? Before buy from them check the price over the phone and ask for delivery! We ask to refund the money per pallet but the customer service if terrible - very rude behaviour!

Overall satisfied with the company and the order I have made. Only slight issue that I would have, is that the delivery notice was quite last minute, especially since you need to sign for it otherwise there’s a redelivery charge of £70+
