My order followed an initial visit to the company’s excellent display site at North Tawton, which I would highly recommend. Shields Buildings worked closely with me to design a combination store and studio to meet my precise requirements. I am delighted with the finished garden store/studio, which is very solidly constructed, is exactly what I wanted, and a fine feature of my garden.

Great service from start to finish. The whole process was efficient and ran on time. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a good quality bespoke building. Shields Buildings deliver exactly what it say's on the tin.

Having spent many months researching a solution for my new garden office, I cannot be more pleased that I chose John and the team at Shields to carry out the project. Delighted with the outcome, the office sits well in the garden and I am already happily working in there. I would have no hesitation in very highly recommending John and his team to anyone considering such a project.

You and your team have delivered just what we asked for, a shed that doesn’t look too shed like, it is perfect. The craftsmanship, quality & finishing touches shine through. It’s definitely more than just a garden shed and your staff are a credit to your brand; courteous, tidy and professional craftsmen. Thanks again for delivering a high-quality product to time and budget.

I am delighted with our new carport, it is so nice to have a beautiful bespoke timber building of our own!

Everyone at Shields was friendly and helpful throughout the design and installation process. The guys on site (Mike in particular) were excellent workers and I can't fault them. The quality of construction also is to a high standard. We look forward to using our new garden room more fully when we have more time and better weather!

We are delighted with our new garden office from Shields Buildings. The design process was simple and took into account all our needs. Onsite installation was simple, smooth and we have been kept informed by Paul at all stages. Everyone we have dealt with at Shields has been lovely. If you are looking for a quality bespoke building, I can highly recommend Shields Buildings.

I undertook extensive research before deciding to go with Shields Buildings. They were thorough and informative throughout the whole process and kept me informed at every step. It's really a delight (and rarity) to work with such a professional company and the end result is exactly what I wanted. If ever I need a further garden building, I'll just go straight to them, which I guess is the best recommendation I can give.

I just wanted to drop you a line to say how pleased we are with the finished product. We are very impressed with the quality of the building. We found it very useful to be able to visit your show-buildings and to discuss our requirements, and the team who came to erect the building were very efficient and friendly. So in spite of Covid throwing a spanner in the works, we are delighted with the new workshop!

I love the idea of someone who does a full survey, draws up the plans, takes it from start to finish and makes it all simple for me – perfect.

One of the great features of Shields Buildings is the North Tawton site where you can look around the examples of their buildings and really imagine and refine your own ideas. They will then sit down and discuss your design and talk through all the material options as well as any planning application. All in all I would recommend Shields Buildings without hesitation, they certainly deserve their five star review.

It is all fab, thank you for the shed, and the incredibly efficient and mess-free work getting rid of the old one and putting this up. I smile every time I look at the shed - SO much better and more attractive than what it replaced!

Great service from start to finish. The whole process was efficient and ran on time. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a good quality bespoke building. Shields Buildings deliver exactly what it say's on the tin - Thank You.

They supplied and fitted a superb garden office of high quality, and we are very pleased with the overall finish. The service from beginning to end has been spot on including cleaning the windows before they left! Attention to detail from Shields. I have no hesitation of recommending this family run company.

We’ve been so impressed with the service and quality of the work done by Shields. From start to finish the experience was fantastic. The fact that John Shields came to our property and carried out the survey and explained everything showed us that this company cared and gave personal service. We are so pleased with the end product and are making full use of the new space. Thanks to all the team!

We keep parrots that are now a protected species and endangered in the wild. We wanted to move them from inside our home to a secure bespoke birdroom where they would have direct access to the aviary. No detail was missed. The guys were amazing, so polite, hard working and friendly. A few days later and the bird room was ready for the big move. We are delighted with the workmanship and attention to detail. I would highly recommend Shields Buildings.

Lovely company to do business with from start to finish and it was great to be able to visit their showroom to check the size of the carport. A perfect fit for our little van.

The response after my initial enquiry was quick and efficient, with a site visit, plans and very reasonable quote done within just a couple of days. The team who built it have done a wonderful job and I’m absolutely thrilled with the result. I shall be using my new timber garden building as a textile art studio and John was most helpful in making sure there were suitably placed windows and roof lights to give me suitable lighting.

I would like to say how pleased we are with the new garage and workshop. The price was extremely good and excellent value. Your workmen did an exceptional job in preparing and laying the groundworks and completing the garage and workshop with the minimum of fuss. I would definitely recommend Shields Buildings to anyone who wants a timber building.

If I'm ever in the market for a new shed, I will definitely use Shields Buildings again, but I won't need to because the quality of the shed and the materials used are best quality and will definitely outlast me. Many thanks to the team at Shields Buildings 10/10

We have just had two double garages installed. The quality of construction is excellent and from my research it shows that the specification is far better than some suppliers. The team that managed our planning, design and installation were easy to deal with, left no mess and always did everything on time. They also helped source a base provider and coordinated the installation with them. I strongly recommend Shields Buildings.

Thank you for the very professional and efficient way Beverley's garden room has been designed and put up by John and all the team. We are very pleased with the building and your service and will definitely recommend you.

I would like to say I am extremely happy with my studio and the service I have received from your company.  From the very beginning your installation team were all exceedingly polite and considerate and completed the job in a very professional manner. It has been a pleasure dealing with you all - which is a rarity these days. I look forward to many happy years of creation in my wonderful new studio.

We have enjoyed another immensely positive experience with your company. They guys who came were friendly and smiling, looked happy in their work and were extremely competent and efficient. The only trace of their presence when they left was a beautifully put together garden shed. We couldn’t be happier with the quality of the work, the product or the service. Thank you very much indeed.

Superb service throughout from the Shields team. From original concept, site visit and planning service to construction by three guys who did an excellent job. We now have a summer house/shed combo of high quality that we will enjoy for many years to come. I can highly recommend Shields Buildings to anyone thinking of buying any garden building.

I would like to thank you and all the team who worked so diligently and professionally on our summerhouse and more recently our carport. Both buildings are a pleasure to look at and the standard of workmanship is excellent. The finished results are everything we hoped for. Very many thanks for all you have done.

Our new garden office is substantially better than I was expecting, and I cannot praise the construction and installation highly enough. I thought the buildings were expensive to begin with, but now I think it is money very well spent and the quality speaks volumes. I am absolutely delighted with Shields Buildings as a company and will definitely and actively recommend them. They are real investments.

I did a fair bit of looking before I chose Shields for a new carport and lock-up shed. The workmanship and the workmen were hardworking and clearly keen to provide exactly what you want. The detail and quality finish makes this a real joy to finally get the finished product. Even the aftercare and return visits to ensure the client is happy is worth its weight. This is craftsmanship at its best.

I'm sure when John first saw the site, his heart must have sunk as the access is awful and the site was on a slope. But with a lot of ingenuity the building is now finished and it's fabulous. Great team of specialist builders who turned up when they said they would turn up and smiled all the way through what must have been quite a testing job.

Shields Buildings has a good display area, that gives an indication of the very high quality of their buildings and the choices available. Nothing was too much trouble for this team of professional, but very approachable people. They went over and above to give us what we wanted. Everything was done on time, when they said it would be. It sits well in the landscape and we are thrilled with it. We highly recommend Shields Buildings.

An example of you get what you pay for. High quality, bespoke and built to last. Everything from the show site visit to the installation day was simple and smooth. Paul kept us well informed and was kind enough to do an extra visit to check all the levels. The men who did the installation were lovely. A really well organised, professional business.

From start to finish the process was seamless and worry free. The shed was built and put up with ease and the team kept our garden very clean and you would hardly notice they had been there all day. I would recommend Shields Buildings for all your Timber Garden buildings.

Once again, I must say how pleased we are with both the carport and the summerhouse. Not only are they perfectly designed for the job they do, as buildings they are also extremely handsome to look at and have been much admired. Please convey our thanks once again to all your team.

I have been really pleased with the right amount of courteous, detailed email information and backup which Shields have given to me during the construction process and feel happy that they will support me in future if need be.

Shields buildings have been exceptional to work with throughout our project and our new building is of the highest quality.  We have so much enjoyed working firstly with the design team through to the construction day and the professional completion of our building. We would happily and without hesitation recommend Shields!

We are delighted with the store, here’s a photo for you with it now pretty full of logs!

What an amazing company. So very helpful, friendly, and caring. You really couldn't ask for more. They kept me informed as to exactly when my patchwork studio would be started, how long it would take and when the men would arrive. All of which happened just when they said it would. It's perfect. Thank you so much Shields Buildings.

Great service, great staff, and beautiful studio. We were cared for from start to finish by informed, pleasant and polite staff...they helped design the build and were a breath of fresh air as far as customer relations is concerned. Many could learn a thing from this company. You pay for what you get when building, and though not cheap, you get quality and what you pay for. I can highly recommend all that Shields provides and supplies.

All-in-all, we would have no hesitation in recommending Shields Buildings to anyone that appreciates attention to detail, enjoys being treated as a proper customer and wants an end-product of genuine quality.

The build quality is second to none, and might just outlive me and/or the cars! You definitely get what you pay for here. Yes, we could have got something cheaper online, but would we have received good quality local service, not to mention the bespoke design? I don't think so.
