“I couldn't find what I needed on the Web site, so I rang them and asked what they could do for me. With on a space of an hour the doweling went available in 5 to 10 days to being shipped that day. Fantastic service with great people to talk to.”

“Package arrived on time, was well packed and secure. The courier used was excellent, driver even came to my back garden when I did not answer the front door (no throwing over the fence here). Cannot rate the products bought as they were for a present. Would use again.”

“I have bee a regular customer for a while now, my count of carving chisels is definitely increasing. From day one I have received nothing short of first class service, the care and attention that goes into packaging is second to none with health and safety foremost considering how sharp the blades are. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who has an interest in wood & woodworking or carving. Excellent. Thank you. Although my order was delayed this is not G&S fault it apparently got sent to the incorrect depot for onward delivery journey.”

“Second time that I have ordered these Oak Dowels from G&S Specialist Timber and on both occasions I have been very pleased with the product supplied. Only letdown on this occasion was the courier [FedEx] who didn't carry out the Saturday delivery [as paid for specifically], with delivery being made on the following Tuesday.”

“Looked for someone with a good selection of dowel rods, rather than the DIY shop range. Was able to get advice on which woods to use, and delivery excellent. Product excellent”

“Rough cut blocks first appearance is - ‘Very Good’ Haven’t had the chance to use these blanks yet but initial impressions are they look very good - next to zero shake in the oak, all saw cuts are quite fine and are from a band saw, not a circular saw. The dimensions on the 50mm width range from just under by a mm under or so to 5mm over, so - very happy that combined with the fine saw cut, I shall get PAR very close to the advertised rough sawn sizes Delivery was well within the times stated and at under £20 for 5 parcels totalling 99kg hand delivered by truck - well cheap I have no hesitation in recommending this company and certainly now have them in my favourites list for my next purchase”

“Ordered 2 oak dowels 50.8mm dia x 350mm late Thursday. Arrived early Saturday! Beautiful pieces, finely finished. Very impressed. A bit puzzled why it was necessary to taper the last 25mm by about 0.8mm to 50mm dia (1 : 62.5): flat masking tape doesn't like cones!”

“The timber was a lovely quality, accurately machined and delivered quickly. Have used this company before and would highly recommend them. More notice of delivery times would help as tracking was difficult and it had to be taken in by a neighbour.”
