I can highly recommend Lockhart’s Sheds.

I visited Mr Lockhart who took time out to show me the sheds on display, i explained what i wanted and he gave me a number of options regarding my shed. I was then visited by Luke, who checked out the prepared base a took final measurements.
The shed was delivered 10 days later and erected by Luke and a colleague.
The quality is excellent, decent solid doors, moisture membrane included.
I can highly recommend Lockhart’s Sheds.

Bespoke Shed

Luke was very helpful when I visited the workshop. Placing the order I experienced good advice and guidance to suit my needs. It was a quick turnaround, delivered and built professionally by a tidy and polite team. Highly recommended.

Disgusting Customer Service

These people are the most unprofessional outfit that I have ever dealt with. I ordered & paid cash for a shed to be made to MY spec.
The shed arrived yesterday. Pat the owners son arrived with another to take my old shed down & install the new one in its place.
Problem 1) They couldnt dismantle the old shed as it had a breeze block wall which is fair enough as they didnt have the tools , my fault. But, there again I wasnt asked what the materials were.
Problem 2) When they assembled the new shed i noticed that they hadnt put in a window which I had paid for. I queried this and was given £20 refund . Id paid considerably more for it.
Problem 3) I accepted reluctantly but in the mean time my mother in law went down to see the owner and she confirmed to him what I had ordered (she was with me when I made the order) As they go back a long way ,he agreed to get the lads back to take the old shed away and to fit the missing window on sight. All good or so i thought.
Problem 4) I called them to see when they were coming back & got the son. What a piece of work he is. After trying to explain what had been agreed with his Dad, he was abusive and put the phone down on me.
I spoke to my mother in law and she confirmed the conversation that she had had with Pat. I called them back to speak calmly to Pat (the owner) to explain the confusion and was met with aggression straight away.
He said that I had accepted the shed and as far as he was concerned the matter was closed. I explained that the conversation he had took place AFTER mine with the lads and he wasnt having any of it and his last wotds to me were " And im telling you that you can sort your shed out yourself"....
Disgusting customer service and I would recommend strongly that you go elsewhere or at the very least DO NOT PAY CASH as they wont rectify their mistakes.

Very good service provided

Very good service provided. This is the second time I have used Lockhearts. They supplied me with a beautiful 10ft X 8ft timber Chalet. Great service, delivered on promised date and fully erected with no fuss. Well run family firm that has been in business for many years. Thank you Pat and Luke and the next generation Kian, who is 9 on Saturday. Kindest regards- Shaun Keates and family 👍

Good quality and friendly service

I ordered a Summer house and shed from Lockharts. Lockhart also did the bases for the two buildings. Well worth the company doing the bases as they came out to see what was needed and also the bases were concrete and will last a lifetime. The quality of both buildings is excellent and we were able to order exactly what we wanted for both buildings. An extra door and window. Luke has even contacted us after completing the job to ask if we wanted wood to cover base. Excellent service and I would recommend the company

An excellent local firm providing good service

I ordered a 6x4 garden shed for delivery in the Canterbury area during May 2019. The shed has been well built, with much thicker timbers used on walls, floor and roof than other products I had considered. The hinges and lock on the shed's door are of good quality too, giving an overall impression of good, sturdy construction. As the shed price included delivery and erection it was very competitive compared to similar products from other firms.

The delivery service was swift, flexible (the shed position had to change because of an uneven surface) and friendly. I have no reservations in recommending Lockharts Sheds to anyone.

wish I hadn't used them

Initially thought they were efficient, however summer house leaked from day 1. They came out a couple of times and tried to say it was my responsibility, the shed was in the wrong place (despite an initial site survey) and all manner of other excuses. Then they refused to speak to me...I persevered and eventually they came and redid the roof.....still leaks and three years on is leaking all over the place and is unusable. They won't talk to me........
BEWARE. I'm hoping they read this and contact me.

A shed for life

I would rec omens this company to anyone even the queen
I needed a strong long lasting shed to store my tools
The general brands on the retail parks did not meet my expectations.
Lockharts was recommended to me so after a visit I had a deal and I am truly not disappointed
I feel if I treat this shed yearly it will live longer than
