What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

In Cheadle on Massie Street, M.J. Scott has built up a loyal following for its range of sheds, potting sheds, log stores and summerhouses. A theme running through the feedback is the quality of the timber and the craftsmanship, with several homeowners describing buildings that have lasted twenty years or more with only basic upkeep.

Reviewers often mention Mr Scott himself, describing him as knowledgeable, approachable and happy to talk through options without applying any sales pressure, whether the visit is a first enquiry or a repeat order from a returning customer. Delivery and installation are frequently praised too, with several accounts of erection being completed within a few hours and arranged for the agreed date. One customer needed a small adjustment after purchase and reported that it was sorted quickly and without charge, reflecting a wider pattern of aftercare being taken seriously.

Buyers mention ordering a second or third building after being satisfied with the first, from a straightforward potting shed used as an art room to a large 16 by 8 pent shed. The premises are described as a compact site packed with examples, giving a clear sense of finishes and sizes before any decision is made. Opening hours run through the week with a shorter Wednesday and a Saturday morning slot, closed on Sundays.

Ordered a 16x8 pent shed from MJ Scott in July and just had it delivered and installed by the supplier. Ordering was easy and Martin was very helpful, answering all my questions and helping with different options. Installation was done in a few hours by the guys and well worth paying extra for. Shed looks great and built to last. Very happy customer.

I ordered 1 shed from Mr Scott & was pleased with it so ordered a second one 18 months ago. He dismantled my old sheds & erected the new ones. Recently I had a small problem with one of the sheds & Mr Scott came round & fixed it with no charge. You can’t fault that for service. Excellent. A++++

Good selection of sheds, summerhouses, potting sheds and the like. Mr Scott is a very pleasant, helpful, knowledgeable man and was happy to provide information, with absolutely no pressure to buy. Having ordered two buildings from him, he provided all the necessary information, confirmed the delivery and installation date, and arrived exactly on time. He took just a few hours to erect the buildings, and did so without fuss, and with absolutely no damage to our property or to the plants immediately adjacent to the area where he was working. Very highly recommended.

Small site packed with outbuildings. Mr Scott very knowledgeable, no pressure to buy and some great ideas. Got to clear the garden ready for our new shed.
