My first visit & I found the staff really really helpfull. I purchased a small amount of Limewood. As I am new to wood carving, I was advised by the staff what I would & wouldn't need for my new hobby. I came away well satisfied, after travelling 110 miles & that my long journey was well rewarded. I will not hesitate to call back when necessary & would recommend to anyone

An excellent company to know of if you need hardwood moulding for cabinet making or repair work, which was the case for me (repairing a vintage table), and good to know that if they don't have the particular item you need off the shelf, they can often produce it bespoke. Top quality product and prompt delivery. I'd certainly both use again and recommend them.

Ordered 100 25mm wood dowelling 2.4m lengths. Every single length was perfect, no cracks or big chunks missing. Better than my local woodyard who were not interested in quality. I use these to make children’s A Frame play tents so the finish and strength of the dowelling is paramount. No more filling and sanding. Don’t bother looking elsewhere on the web, these folks are the place to go to. Great price, quality and service, excellent packaging and with me within 2 day

I received my ash pole by delivery, the service was very quick with no fuss. Ordered on line. Good price and the pole itself is perfect, lovely grain, sanded to perfection. Thank to the person I dealt with for his recommendation of G&S Specialist Timber, if there is anyone else in our village who needs quality service and quality product, give me a shout. The packaging did the job well, re-inforced at both ends, as you would expect, but also well padded for protection. Hope I can do it justice in my project. I will be a returning customer in the future, and can confidently recommend G&S, to others, no problem

my order was a low cost, low value order for lime wood blanks, but it was obvious right from the start my order was treated with equal importance to much more important orders. From my initial enquiry through to delivery the staff were extremely helpful and courteous and I will have no hesitation in placing follow-up orders with this company. thanks again for your prompt response to my initial enquiry and speedy delivery regards scothai

Ordered a hamlet 3/4 oval skew and im thrilled to bits,,ive not been turning long but have already produced a couple of bowls and other things, i really cant rave about hamlet tools enough, being a joiner for over 20 years ive seen some great tools, the finish on them is flawless and they keep an edge good too, G&S Delivered very quick and the chisel was packaged really good.

Just received my first order from G&S . Well pleased with the email and text contact about delivery. The goods supplied are brilliant and an answer to prayer as previous visits to local timber merchants were fruitless. Highly recommended.

This was an excellent 'online experience'. The product was as described - solid oak skirtings - lovely quality. It was very well packaged and arrived within the promised timeframe. I will use this company again and am very happy to recommend them

this seems like a good service company,the two pieces of limewood I ordered were excellent quality.The delivery time was as stated (4-5 days)which was fine for me but not for most people.rapid delivery at reasonable cost is king to growing internet sales,that being said I shall now carve these two excellent pieces of timber into scrap and then order some more from G&S.

I was after a oak beam with a shelf, and wanted it to look rustic. I was really impressed with the quality of the work, the communication (pictures were sent to me, I was kept abreast of developments) and the advice, which I needed as I am not someone who works with wood at all. So now we have a gorgeous piece of crafted wood, which will proudly sit in our home. I've never used the firm before, so wasn't familiar with them at all. We went to the workshop, where we were able to see some of the wood they have turned - all quite amazing. It is evident that there is a much higher level of service when using a family-run firm, and I'll do it again.
