Thanks for your review, Mr Densumbe — we appreciate you taking the time to share it.

Sorry to hear there was a delay and confusion around the delivery notification — that’s not how it should work. We’ve since made improvements to how delivery updates are handled to avoid that kind of issue.

Thanks again for your order and your feedback.

Thanks for your review, Robbie — we appreciate you taking the time to share it.

Sorry the delivery and communication didn’t go as they should have at the time — that’s not the standard we aim for. We’ve since made improvements to how we manage delivery scheduling and updates, so feedback like this has helped shape that.

Glad to hear the driver was helpful when it arrived and that the timber looked good.

Thanks again for your order and your feedback.

Excellent - wood cut exactly

Very highly recommended! Purchased some marine plywood and they agreed to make a cut in it to my specified dimensions. This was done perfectly down the the millimetre and the wood slotted in easily to its intended spot. Very happy with your service (easy to text chat with via Whatsapp too) Many thanks to you!
