Hi!
Looking @ the choice in firms selling concrete prefab. garges (Baretts Leisure of Wisbexh; Hansen [-Myrefield] of Featherstone; Lidget. Compton, etc) there doesn't seem to be any obvious large differences between prices & product. Given that, I'm looking for some feedback from anybody who's dealt with them as to what the products are REALLY like & what pre & after sales service is like. - TIA?

We got a Compton one just over 2 years ago. It's a double, but we use it as a workshop so it doesn't have any actual garage doors; just two 'normal' doors.

It's reet good. One issue is that you can't drill into the walls, but there are ways round that. Not needed to deal with them since buying the thing, so have no idea about after-sales.

I don't really know what else to say! It serves its purpose, and (after the base was laid) was up within a day.

I've got a Compton too, it serves it's purpose in keeping the rain off whatever I'm storing in it.

The difference pricewise in a proper brick built garage and a concrete garage is immense so it's really up to you. We went for the brick look frontage on our Compton and it really does look good.
