Good company staff very helpful
This is the first time I had used this company although 3rd time of ordering from them...I found the staff (Paul, Luke and Simon) who I dealt with extremely helpful..even the delivery drivers are very helpful...also I had my deliveries within 2 days so can't fault them...would highly recommend Beatsons and would certainly use them again...Prices were also reasonable...
Extremely helpful and professional
Extremely helpful and professional, Gordon helped me build a quote for my summer room and sourced some other timber not offered on the website.
Very happy
Good Service but Below Par Timber
Firstly, Beatsons provide a quick courteous service and their prices are excellent. However, much of my fencing timber was badly warped and twisted with most posts having large splits running down their length. Many of the rails were so twisted that to affix them properly, I had to use a heavy duty sash clamp to force the back of the rail to meet the post.
I do like Beatsons in general but this time the fencing wood was sub-par in comparison to that I’ve purchased elsewhere this year.
Amazing service
Amazing service, expected 5 day delivery, got next day delivery, the delivery man took the extra time to spread the stones in place for me instead of just leaving the bulk bag. I am truly appreciative of the excellent service offered here
Avoid!!
Avoid!!! orderd internal doors on a 3 to 5 working day delivery and heard nothing chased them up 4 days in and was told they would be in contact thay are routing the delivery for my areas that day and would be by the end of last week heard nothing! this morning receive an email stating we chased your delivery and it shold be with you possibley Wednesday or Thursday the following! week now making it nearly 3 weeks and im also then away on holiday! I called and explained i had builders in waiting to compleate this week and i was not in the county following. Experienced complete disregard for the inconvenience not to mention extra cost now for an extra day for my builders have to return when i sorced more to replace there order. Use other reputable building suppliers they gattente delivery within week! Not 3! and you Won't just take your money then your chasing them for your goods! and communication to receive them! To then now wait for a refund from them while I pay out more expense to get my work finished and replace what they have not delivered.As building suppliers people are renovating and suppliers holding goods and missleading delivery has a cost effect on the consumer and builders carrying out the work, causing delays!

Order 2 bags of soil as we had previously used Beatsons for loads of other products and projects
But was hugely disappointed and angry at quality of my soi that was delivered .it was full of glass , weeds &stones( like the stuff I dug up and took the dump ) I take the stones were to give each bag the weight!!
I think that were my new soil came from !!
