Lawsons were so wonderful
Lawsons were so wonderful. They didn't look down their noses because I'm not 'trade' or because I'm a girlie. They gave me personal help and advice. They cut the timber especially for me to fit my requirements. They delivered, even though it was an order of only 4 planks. They went out of their way to deliver to the place I requested. When one of the planks was defective, they delivered a replacement right away.
Great customer service from Tyler…

We have used this Company when it was Herts Timber supplies for a number of years and since being taken over by Lawsons. The service we receive from going to the stores or dealing on line with orders and financial matters has been first class. They are understanding of clients needs with a professional approach.
