Never Never Buy from this company
BSD sold me a Timber Log Cabin back on the 16th March 2021 whilst advertising an 8 to 10 week delivery time. I created an account and placed my order for which I had to hand over full payment. However my order didn’t show up on my account and even though I contacted them several times I was told they couldn’t do anything about it, so after 7 weeks I had had no information or contact from BSD. When I rang them I was told that they couldn’t give me any information as it was in the hands of another company in Estonia, they offered to email them and get back to me, they didn’t. I contacted them again and requested a manager to phone me, they didn’t. I contacted them yet again and requested a call back by a manager, only to get an email from a helpdesk email account , though signed by a manager. The email stated that it was nothing to do with BSD though they had my money. They said they were only a customer of the third party manufacturer and actually didn’t do anything other than take my money and place an order with the Estonian company Palmako. Eventually after repeated emails and phone calls I was informed that the delivery was now going to be 18+ weeks, due to Covid, a lack of Trees and a lack of operatives. Because of my repeated complaints BSD refunded 5% of my money as they felt this was good customer relations.
Because we were now some 12 weeks into the order I asked that someone contact me each week with a progress update, they didn’t, I had to contact them each time. I repeatedly asked if the Cabin was in production, on it’s way or in the UK, each time I was told they couldn’t tell me as they didn’t know and couldn’t find out. Well I contacted Palmako directly in Estonia and got an update straightaway. Finally after 24 weeks Palmako UK contacted me and arranged delivery of my cabin. I can honestly tell you that BSD does nothing, accepts no responsibility for anything and cannot communicate with it’s customers. Even though they accepted that they let me down, they did nothing to stay in contact with me or provide any updates. They gave a token 5% refund which is an insult and when they read this will give some condescending reply that won’t actually address any of the real issues.
There are many companies out there that buy from Palmako as most timber cabins are made in Europe, so if you want a new cabin then shop around but don’t don’t buy from BSD.

Don't believe the delivery times as the company takes no responsibility on sticking to them.
I placed my order back in March 2021 and it was clearly advertised that delivery times were between 8 to 10 weeks. After not having any updates or contacts from the company I had to contact them myself. Having explained that I needed an update on the expected delivery I was told that the company would get back to me once they had spoken with the manufacturer. However over a week later I had to contact them again because I had heard nothing. I was then informed by a lady named SUKI , Some 7 WEEKS after placing the order XXX12000211256, that the delivery was now expected in early JULY. Though they apologised they said they could do nothing to speed this up. They didn't even have the decency to have a manager ring me to explain why their Web Site was giving incorrect information and misleading customers in parting with their money. This company has NO customer service skills and does NOT care about the position they leave people in.
12th August 2021. Still waiting for my Goods to be delivered. Yeah so it was nice of them to hope I liked my cabin once I received it but it still not even in the UK. So the small part refund offered back in May has now proved to be a slight insult rather than a real attempt at customer service.
