Initial disappoint blown away.

Despite my initial frustration and length of time it took to get my order after placing it (about three weeks), I can say that Tony Adams was excellent, erricient and compensated me for my inconvenience and lack of promised return calls from other members of staff.
Quality of the trellising and posts was excellent and my friend who helped me instal the goods was a former garden centre manager for a major diy chain.He was very impressed with the quality.

Very Disappointed

Used in the past and we're very good. But tried using them for another project and they can't even be bothered communicate with me about my order which I am now going to have to cancel through my card company.

Good Quality

Ordered fence panels including one bespoke as it was not a standard size, from start to finish ordering was easy pricing very competitive for a quality product.
Delivery was excellent and on time ,
I would defiantly use Witham timber again and have no hesitation in recommending this company

Good communication

Wrong fence panels were delivered but company apologised and arranged for panels to be swapped in a couple of days on a day that was convenient with me with no hassle. Good panels and good price.

A great company

I have used Witham Timber twice now. Once I picked up 240 bits of feather edge and the latest time I had a farm gate, ironwork and timber delivered. I have to say that this company is nothing short of superb. Professional, helpful and knowledgeable staff and the delivery driver was helpful with the unloading of materials to where I needed them and bang on time (albeit at the crack of dawn which absolutely suited me). I would have no hesitations in using this firm again.

Welcoming staff, great prices.

Brilliant range of wood. Really good prices. Less than half the price of the same type and size found in wickes. The staff were beyond helpful. I ordered incorrectly. They sorted it out without fuss. I then realised they were not as close as first thought. Very accommodating with me collecting my order. Thank you David and the receptionist for being so welcoming.

Will definitely use in the future.

Good morning, as stated on our product listing, due to the recent, and record breaking weather, we have experienced a higher number of orders than usual, and this is causing delays in delivery. We had attempted to contact you multiple times, via eBay message and by leaving voicemails on the two numbers your provided. We can only offer our apologies that we were unable to reach, and assist you in this instance. Many thanks, Witham Timber

Excellent quality fence panel - free delivery

Excellent quality fence panel. Free delivery takes around 8 days. Get a call the day before d day to confirm delivery in the next morning but we unfortunately still miss in just 30’ out for lunch. The delivery team has been kind enough to leave my order in my front yard. Put it up to repair damage from storm Eunice in minutes. Much thicker and heavier than our previous fence panels. Very pleased! Well done, Witham Timber!

Poor communication

Poor communication. Ordered some fence panels. Heard nothing for a month. Gave them a call thought it would be long enough even in these times. I was told Transport were arranging delivery, the items were all in stock, just waiting delivery. Heard no more. Phoned 10 days later. Now the panels are out of stock! No idea when new stock will arrive! Such a waste of time. Order cancelled. Refund came through OK, would imagine they are used to doing them.

Excellent company

Excellent company to deal with. The 6’ x 6’ feather edge fence panels are superior quality for a very reasonable price. Delivery on time and driver very helpful, friendly and professional. A very good all round experience.
We’ll definitely use Witham Timber again and we’ll recommend them to anyone who is looking for timber products.
