Sykes Timber

Friendly staff, a reasonable selection in their offcuts shed but it's rather expensive. They've got a huge amount of stock in their other sheds but it's not viewable by retail customers. I understand why but it would be nice if they had a selection of their main stock available for viewing by retail.

The Sykes's have the best wood !

I spent around 8k with them, paid in advance and they promised delivery by May 11th - they confirmed me and then they never told me it would not be on time. Then instead of emailing they started calling me on 12th tell me it would be four days late when I had a team waiting on 11th! I personally think that is inexcusable and shows contempt for customers - they obviously prioritised another job and could not be bothered to let me know. It's a shame, as their wood is generally very good. After a lot of hassle, they agreed to refund shipping costs which is why I have changed them from 1 to 3 stars - if they had volunteered that I would be a bit more sympathetic

We were looking for quite a while for a nice piece of live edge wood to make a dining table. Many timber yards couldn't help us but kept telling us about sykes, so I have them a call. The chap on the phone was a great help, knew his products well and gave us some priceless advice. Mentioned they have a show area for live edge wood so we went for a visit. All the staff were great, and if you like wood you have to go here, the smell, the feel and the old wooden barn that's also a small museum is great. Anyway we took a look at many pieces but feel in love with one perfect slab that we simply had to have... So we did. We are now the proud owner of a decent slice of seasoned live edge wood and will definitely be going back for wood to build the legs and frame when we get that far. I strongly recommend passing them a visit, and I think this place is my new favourite time /wood yard. Thanks for your help Sykes team!
