“My product was delivered late and when it did arrive there were pieces missing.
The return process was slow and the delivery company Elbec use refused to take the return even though it was packaged in the same condition it was delivered in and the same condition the replacement was delivered in.
I strongy suggest Elbec review the service they receive from DX.”

“My garden shed delivery date is today 10 sep 2025 was confirmed and today morning i was informed that delivery is postponed .
I rang the customer services team of mercia as per email instructions from elbec garden buildings and was told that driver called in sick hence delays .
I have expressed my displeasure and requested for compensation for delay as the delay has caused loss to me as i paid a private installer already and he is not available unless i pay again extra monies which is a huge loss.
Mercia garden customer services team points out that i should read the fine print for any delays mentioned on their website and cannot help further and advised if i wish to cancel order then go ahead and do it with elbec garden building.
overall very poor customer services and no guarantee that they will deliver what they promise neither can find any solution ,which is a shame.
Already i feel that their product is going to be exactly as their customer service hence cancellation is necessary.I feel sorry for myself to have chosen this product or this company.”

“Purchased a garage which, turns out Elbec we're selling on behalf of Mercia garden buildings.
Took over 2 weeks of delivery being cancelled on the morning of delivery on a few different days (when leave had been put in from work) for eventually the totally wrong item to arrive.
Carrier was blamed... how when it was the wrong item I have no idea??
Told they could re order the correct item but could not say when it would be delivered???
I would not buy from either company after this!
Refund was paid after the wrong item was collected.”

“I paid extra to order from Elbec because they promised faster delivery than other retailers. Unfortunately, the shed arrived damaged and incomplete. The delivery driver removed the damaged part and I was assured replacements would follow, but I then received the wrong part and had to chase repeatedly.
In the end it took weeks, multiple failed deliveries, and a lot of frustration before the correct part finally arrived — far slower and more stressful than if I’d ordered elsewhere for less.
The product itself is fine now that it’s complete, but the customer service experience was very poor. Based on my experience, I would not order from Elbec again.”

“The materials used was only fit for firewood. It was bowed. It was twisted. It was a disgrace that somebody could sell such rubbish.

“Bought a wooden log store from Elbec last September. During the warm summer weather, the wooden roof has warped, causing large gaps for the water to penetrate. Elbec informed me that 'Due to the length of time between your original delivery and your concerns raised of the warped timber, you are not entitled to any replacement or repair.' So after ten months my log store is useless.
Date of experience: 27 June 2025”
Good Afternoon,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your wooden log store.
We are sorry to learn about the issues you've faced with the roof warping. Your experience is important to us, and we truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Warping is a natural effect of all timber, which can occur within the acclimations and temperatures of the weather. It is recommended to apply a water repellent to the timber to help maintain the balance of moisture levels within the timber, which can limit the movement in the timber.
If there is anything further we can assist you with or if you have any other concerns, please feel free to contact our Customer Care Team.
Kind Regards,
elbec Garden Buildings.
