I regularly use Vastern for purchasing locally grown, sustainably sourced British oak and ash. I then use this for making bespoke fitted and freestanding furniture. The quality of the timber is excellent and reliable. I usually deal with Wolf when I visit who's friendly, knowledgeable and allows time to search for the timber that fits my requirements. The company really cares about what they do, and they promote the conservation and enhancement of British woodlands which is important to me and really sets them apart!

I went to Vastern to get a burr oak waney edge board. Their customer service was excellent, I was given a lot of help and advice to pick out the very board that met my needs to make my river table. I went back to get some planed oak for the legs/base. Thoroughly recommended!Edit Oct 2024: Visited again to get some planed oak boards for a custom lounge light. Customer service and the personal touch was still top notch!

I used Vasterns for some ash for a kitchen job and was very pleased with the quantity to choose from, the quality of the timber and the price. The customer service was also excellent. A guy named Wolf took time to help me pick out everything I needed. Left feeling pleased with my haul of timber and will definitely be back.

Wolf was excellent today helping Steve and I select a piece of wood for a desk and sorting out getting it cut so we could move it back on our truck. Great service and really nice that he was interested in our project. Thanks so much.

Case studies

Jointed sweet chestnut cladding at Newport Road June 2012

This ultra modern development was built on the site of two former garages. The house was designed as two separate blocks linked via a glazed stairwell. The upper levels of the house are wrapped in jointed sweet chestnut cladding supplied by Vastern Timber. When asked about the choice of cladding material, David Long of David Long Architects commented:

"It was a simple choice to use a renewable, low embodied energy, and locally produced material."

The build which has been reviewed in several architectural publications including Architecture Today and Future Constructor & Architect was selected as a finalist in the Best New-Build category of the Grand Designs Awards 2010.
