Bought a 1Litre tin of Zinsser AllCoat (Water Based) Exterior Satin white about four days ago , considering I live in Devon I was mighty impressed with delivery time and excellent packaging. It was also the cheapest online. I would definitely use this company again.

Best price and free, fast delivery ....perfect!

Best price online, easy to order and arrived super fast, free, and well packaged. I read some negative reviews on Trustpilot which almost put me off but glad I went with Transtools. I ordered 8 rustoleum spray cans on the Saturday, despatch notice received Monday morning and delivered noon Tuesday with full tracking updates. Maybe not quite as fast as Amazon where they know that you're going to order something before you do, and deliver next day, even on the weekend .... but still really good and 40% cheaper! Thank you Transtools :-)

Thank you for your kind review. We are glad our service and prices met your expectations.
The previous reviews here on Trustpilot are very frustrating for us as they are many years old when Transtools was operating under different management and is not a reflection on how we operate today. Thanks again!

Good prices and prompt despatch but…

Good prices and prompt despatch but customer service to locate missing delivery they weren’t interested. They used Hermes, no tracking, no delivery day, up to 10pm deliveries and missing parcels without POD but still claim delivered! Won’t buy from them again.order no 205-8577312-7380335 via Amazon and a fruitless Amazon chat with supplier which you should have on record.Transtools on Amazon has the same address as Transtools online.

Hello
Orders fulfilled thorough Amazon are in no way associated with Transtools.co.uk
Your order seems to quote an amazon order number which is completely separate from our website so we politely request this review is removed.

Poor product, worse customer service

Sold a defective product (old spoiled paint) and then fobbed me off, refusing to refund. I wouldn't trust them with any bigger purchases as they obviously don't care once they have your money. Avoid

I rated Transtools one star and that was too many…

I rated Transtools one star as I couldn't rate it any lower. My order was small however, I have ordered many small items over the years but companies now get away with "it's not us, it's the delivery people" or "it's Covid" or "Brexit" the truth is it's an oversight and it's not been sent. When I contacted Transtools they said "it's up to the delivery service when you get your item, do you want a refund or a replacement" I chose refund as THEY can't give me a delivery day and that's who my contract of purchase is with.
My advice would be if you are thinking of purchasing an item from 'Transtools'try closer to home first or read the feed back.
If they have let people down previously, it's not worth aggravation.

OUTSTANDING

After shopping with Transtools for a while i thought I ought to review this for other customers to find a business who takes pride in there customers.

I religiously purchase lamp oil, and de-ionised water from Transtools. Possibly half a dozen of the orders I’ve placed have had hiccups with Evri, however this will not put me off using them as I buy for the outstanding customer service i receive, and the low price.

Customer service - i have spoken to 2 lovely lady’s on Amazon and I can not praise them enough. The lengths they go to too provide me with reassurance if my order is delayed, lost or damaged is an understatement. I have quite frankly never done business with a company who email me first if there is an issue. The lady’s are polite, efficient and a credit to the company.

Cost- with prices rising I was expecting Transtools to increase the price on there products massively, but they haven’t. And I realise it’s because they care for there customers and not how much more profit can they squeeze in. Like many other providers I have dealt with.

All in all I recommend using Transtools too anybody who has suffered with company’s price increases and lack off customer service communication. Because as a matter off fact if the delivery company does damage or loose your parcel one off these lovely ladies will have already emailed you before you even realise. Have a investigation put in place almost immediately, and have a replacement dispatched the next day with the tracking number sent over within 10 minutes.

You are a credit to the company and I look forward to continuing doing business with you.

Richard.

Exceptional Customer service.

Exceptional Customer service.

Communication was prompt and professional with Elesha who immediately rectified the issue with Evri. My shipment was "lost" by Evri and with no help from them I asked Transtools to step in. Within 10 minutes of emailing them i had a replacement on its way with a different delivery service which actually arrived next day so i could complete my project bench early.

Will defiantly become a repeat buying from this company who unlike many other suppliers (B&Q) actually care for their customers.
