The Dorset Tree Shepherd Ltd. is extremely pleased to have found Vastern Timber, what an incredible place! Such vast amounts of excellent quality timber, stacked and drying.

Dropped in by chance recently as I ideally wanted a tactile (kiln dried) oak plank for my bathroom. Amazed at the choice from the warehouse stocked full of various sized planks and woods to chose from! The customer service was excellent, as was the smell - as well as knowing the oak I chose was responsibly sourced!I would definitely recommend anyone upgrading a table, needing a worktop, making shelves etc visiting this treasure trove for something truly unique & very affordable!

Something so good about being able to select some great quality timber that has been grown and harvested close to home and skillfully dried and graded by Vastern. I've been using them for years, and always have much appreciated help to select what I need. My customers love to know that the timber used on their project was locally sourced too, which is a bonus.

Just received my order from Vastern Timber and loved the quality of Brimstone Ash which arrived early. I then ran out and required a small additional quantity and instead of the usual 12 week it was supplied in 3 weeks. Thanks a lot Stefan and the team.

Since opening our workshop Murray & Gould Ltd in 2022, Vasterns Timber has become our first choice timber merchant. It certainly helps being local, which got us through the door the first time around, but it’s the service and quality of products that keeps us going back.It’s so easy to make an appointment giving details of what timber and dimensions you wish to select.The timber is made accessible and ready by the time of the appointment which saves so much time. You are taken through the process by ‘Wolf’, who is happy to help however he can to find the timber boards that you require. He’s incredibly patient and helpful so you don’t feel at all rushed or pressured to select unsatisfactory boards, as is often the case elsewhere.The prices have been good every time we’ve been and very fair on any ‘character’ in the boards.If they have, or can source, the species we need, then they are our first port of call. Having been shown round the whole site by Wolf, we have a great picture of the huge stock that is available and the variations within them.David GouldMurray & Gould Ltd
