Damaged item dispatched
I ordered a plywood door that cost £170. I kept it secure on the delivery pallet awaiting installation as I didn't want it to get damaged. It was wrapped up and very secure, with no damage to the packaging. When the carpenter opened it on installation day it was damaged in so many places, gauges out of it, damaged edges. The carpenter had to fill and sand to make it it an acceptable quality to hang. It was obviously sent out that way from the warehouse. I couldn't believe they would charge that much money and think it acceptable to send out such a poor quality item. When I contacted them they used the 'you should have looked at it on arrival' technicality to avoid giving me a reduced price as it was such poor quality. I was just offered a £35 good will credit. I won't be using them again, £35 credit or not. I don't pay for poor quality.
I can update that I was contacted by the Builder Depot after I gave the review and they helped with my grievance. They offered me a 25% refund on the door, which I was relatively happy with, as I used the door, even though it needed a lot more work to get it looking good. I increased the review to 2 stars
