Easy ordering process and delivered on time after another company let me down. Would highly recommend and will use again
APPALLING SERVICE
This is the second time this company had allowed me to place an order, then a few days later, said they are sold out.
My guess, is they never had stock, but they'll take your money, earn a bit of interest in it, then refund you the original amount.
In this day and age of computers, you expect me to believe you can not have a website with up to the minute stock levels?
Rubbish!

Ordered a loft hatch early January (3rd) for a job scheduled for 7th. After no contact for several days was informed the order was out of stock but that it would be sent out by express delivery asap. Finally got the item today,21st January. Should have cancelled looking back on it but didn't. Never use them again though.

Fabulous service
Fabulous service. Clear and precise website. Delivered on time. Great product. The only blemish was one of the screws was not cut well and I had to find a replacement from my spares.
Sorry only One star down from top…
Sorry only One star down from top marks because my Sievert Gas pipe never left you guys on the
1 Dec 2025 as scheduled ... I ordered online
4 hours before the cut off time for same day dispatch / next day delivery ........but unfortunately due to IT issues your TCD end the flexi orange gas pipe never left you that day ,
TCD Staff assured me when I telephoned them on 2nd December 2025 mid morning that it would leave 100% that afternoon and be with me the following day ,,,,, also TCD refunded me half of my next working delivery charge too. .
Main UK stock holder of this Sievert Swedish propane gas pipe has 200units in stock in Kettering Northants but could not sell one to me direct .... they communicated with their estimated mad delivery time lines of 10 to 15 working days delivered to a business that deals with them it was out of the question as I could not work without this replacement gas pipe ,
So TCD confirmed on the telephone at midday on the 1st December 2025 that they actually had 2 x Sievert orange propane hoses in stock so I ordered one off TCD via their online shop
All in all a positive outcome
Ordered with no problems
Ordered an insulation saw and it arrived as scheduled - absolutely no problem.
Ordered Despatch Issue
If you’re in a rush to get your item don’t use this company.It didn’t make it clear when I placed the order which they said was in stock would take over a week before it was dispatched very disappointed
