Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 69 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the high quality of the products, often noting that the timber is straight, accurately cut, and well-finished, exceeding expectations compared to typical hardware chains. The service is frequently described as excellent, with staff being friendly, knowledgeable, and providing great advice and efficient communication. Many appreciate the prompt and efficient delivery service, with products arriving well-packaged and protected, even over long distances. However, some customers experienced issues with product quality, such as inconsistent wood color, splits, or knots, and found that some advertised planed timber still required sanding. Additionally, a few people were dissatisfied with the delivery company, citing fixed, long delivery windows and an inability to reschedule or get more precise times, leading to inconvenience.

The website is so easy to use in particular the chance to change timbers during the process (very neat). Delivery is always very prompt.

I will be making another order very soon.

Project is to refresh balcony slats

Project is to refresh balcony slats. Suitable timber was available from Timbersource. Just need to cut to length and skim 2mm for correct thickness. Ideal wood for task.
Delivery company failed to deliver on the due date (so 2 days waiting for the delivery) but this does not detract from the quality of the product.

Perfect solution to my problem

I needed a short piece of softwood to replace a section of flooring that had been cut too short by a previous owner of my house. My options seemed to be to buy far more wood than I needed or to pay an extortionate price for delivery of a small piece. Timbersource had the perfect solution. A board cut exactly to size and delivered free within 48 hours.

Helpful sales rep

Placed order online. Timbersource called me to discuss my options, because the wood I requested couldn't be sourced at this time. We went through what I would be using it for and the sales rep was very helpful in providing alternative options at the same price.

Wood arrived cut to the exact size I needed and looks great (used as part of some garden structures being built outside).

Very pleased.
