About the company

Bentley's Garden Buildings was established in 2002 and is a family-run business, with the Bentley name rooted in the local community since the 1930s. It operates from two display sites in Rothley and Lutterworth, showcasing more than 50 garden buildings. The company supplies and installs garden buildings across the Midlands, using only fully qualified contractors for installations. Its garden buildings are backed by manufacturer warranties.

It offers a complete start-to-finish service including free site surveys, groundwork and professional installation handled by its own team. David Missen and Aasma Sheikh are Directors, and Mason Blackburn is the Sales Lead. It provides sheds, summer houses, log cabins, greenhouses, garden rooms, eco range, workshops and other bespoke garden structures. It supplied a 24x10ft aluminium greenhouse with tailored modifications to a customer in Market Harborough and provided a garden building for Kang Care Homes in Loughborough to relocate their office space.

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

The timber structures on offer at this Leicester site range from sheds and workshops to summer houses and garden stores, and repeat visitors describe the showroom as holding far more than standard gardening lines. What several customers highlight is the guidance provided before purchase, with staff explaining which options suit a garden office and setting out costs clearly. Build quality recurs as a strength, with the feather edge models at the lower end of the range still reported as sturdy rather than flimsy.

Installation crews are consistently credited with punctual arrival, tidy working and smooth assembly of bases and buildings. One office customer notes that delivery dates were relayed as the order progressed, so the fitting ran without interruption. Named employees, Iain and James among them, are singled out for a knowledgeable and genuine manner.

A workshop buyer describes the showroom representative as excellent before problems arose at the ordering stage, and the same account mentions repeated corrections to the written specification and a delayed response over a damaged canopy. Other reviewers describe a potting shed whose door and window would not close properly and a glass door order where a scratched frame went unresolved for months. The recurring picture is of strong timber and helpful advice, set against uneven order handling and after-sales follow-through.

Fantastic service from start to finish. Great knowledge about suitable options for a garden office, kept updated about delivery time and installation process was very smooth. The finished office is superb quality, perfect for purpose and just what we had asked for. Very highly recommended

Good quality shed but workmanship terrible! More expensive than most but the quality of the shed was not matched by the workmanship of the company. Bentley's have a firm from Pontefract do the base installs and actually make, supply and erect the sheds. The base install was poor: the end grains were untreated; one 'joist' was damaged (pic 3); the same joist was left touching the cement around a pillar where water would pool. All that sets up early rot. The fitter lied when telling us there was a 10 year warranty - it's only 12 months. The team who delivered and did the build refused to reposition their van when asked politely. Although we'd paid for painting of the shed, the endgrains of many pieces, especially the bits they cut on site, were not (pic 2 of the shed base end grain). The cutting onsite was poor quality and better described as hacked. Where they did dab on a bit of stain on these ends, the cutting was so poor, the paint couldn't really do the job (pic 1). Many screws they used sheared off after a couple of months - presumably too much torque applied by power tools and then of course those holes have got broken screws in and can't be re-used. The salesman at Bentley's was effusive about how helpful they would be - attaching a water butt. The team left it unattached and said we could do that. In short, a terrible experience! I wish we'd read more reviews. Trustpilot 2.3! For our next shed, we went to ReadyShed, near Coalville. Wow! They're more pleasant and a lot cheaper and better value!

Love this place, just nipped for a quick wander out but lovely as Full of Christmad decorations. Lovely set out and something for everyone. Garden centre had a quick look, bought an olive tree for £10 bargain. Lots of potted Christmas trees and these were all a good size. Well worth a visit.

We had gone with our son who was looking at what was available. He needs to replace the shed that came with the house he purchased. There were a couple of possible options & the young man was very helpful, provided us with prices for what our son was interested in.

I recently purchased a shed from Bentleys Garden Buildings, and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience! From start to finish, the entire process was smooth and efficient. Mason provided outstanding customer service, guiding me through the options and ensuring I chose the right shed for my needs. He was patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in helping me find the perfect fit. The delivery and installation were impressively quick—it took just one month from placing my order to having the shed fully installed. Neil, who handled the fitting, was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was professional, courteous, and did a fantastic job assembling the shed. His attention to detail and friendly demeanor made the installation process a breeze. Overall, Bentleys Garden Buildings is an amazing company that truly cares about its customers. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of a high-quality garden building. Thank you, Bentleys, for the excellent service and fantastic shed!

Brought an expensive potting shed from Bentleys. Door doesn't shut properly, split on one of the panels and the window was left open when they built it - why because it doesn't shut properly either. Despite making several attempts (we can see the holes they have left trying) the latch doesn't line up with the window handle. 2 months on, several calls, we are still waiting for it to be addressed. Went expensive hoping for quality - never again.
