I ordered stone from Bradfords…
I ordered stone from Bradfords Glastonbury. They appeared to offer best value and free delivery.
Truck access was potentially problematic. The office staff were very helpful in discussing solutions. Their driver (Anders) agreed to give it a try, he too proved both personable and also determined in concluding a tricky delivery. I’d not used Bradfords before, I’d certainly use them again.

Really happy with service provided
Really happy with service provided. From the initial order and call from the office to let me know when my items were being delivered to the 2x excellent drivers who went above and beyond what I expected. I asked them if they could move a few items with their hiab and they were more than happy too. Will order from them again.

Ordered three lengths of fence capping
Ordered three lengths of fence capping. The quality was poor, the ends were damaged beyond use, and there were several splits. Luckily I had sufficient length to remove the damaged ends.

Efficient and great communication
I used these guys twice in a week. Service was excellent, dealt with a guy called Rob? I think. Very helpful , communication was spot on and the delivery driver was very helpful too.
Would use again nd recommend to others (Infact I have recommended them to a work colleague)

Couldn’t be happier!
All round very satisfactory and simple process. Ordered online, a telephone call to confirm my order, delivered a couple of days later by a very nice man with his lorry.
5 star service, couldn’t be happier. 😀

Excellent service
Easy to arrange a delivery time to suit me but the bit I appreciate most is that the driver parked so as not to inconvenience other road users even though he had to carry each large piece of timber 25m to my drive. If only Evri could do the same for their 100g packages :)

Featheredge fancy panels
Ordered online, Bradfords phoned within 10 minutes to arrange delivery date. Delivery arrived earlier than time initially given which was fine for me.
Fence panels are a sturdy construction and well made.
Delivery was excellent, put near to the house.
Would definitely order from company again.
