“Excellent product, well packaged and delivered quite quickly. It would be even better if they included a template to aid fixing as it is vital to drill the holes in exactly the right place to get the hidden shelf supports to slide in.”

“The beam I got as a mantle is a beautiful piece of oak wood properly aged and well finished. The company is easy to deal with and they sent the item extremely well packaged and the courier was careful with the item so no damage. The only reason not to give full marks was that the wood has a crack (and I fully realise that cracks are to be expected and are indeed a feature) however this crack is right on the corner and edge of the beam and has opened further since installing so I am keeping an eye on it and hoping it doesn’t get worse. The beam is guaranteed for life so I feel confident to do this.”

Hi Lynn, thanks for your review. We are pleased to hear you are happy with your purchase and you found us an easy company to deal with :) Please be assured cracks are to be expected from air dried timber, it is just the nature of the product. Our beams have been very well air dried for between 3-5 years and cracks are a good indication of this. Typically more cracks may appear or existing cracks might open up further as air dried oak adjusts to room temperature. It is also possible for a small amount of shrinkage to occur, again this is completely normal :) If you do have any concerns in the future please feel free to get in touch with us.

“Wooden Oak Beam is perfect. It has such character and is a quality product. We purchased it with the fittings for the larger beam. However, the plastic raw plugs are not up to the job and we had to buy our own fittings. Now that we've done that, it's perfect.”

Hi Wendy, thanks for your review. It's lovely to hear you are happy with your Oak Beam & the quality of it. We are sorry to hear you feel that way reading the fixings, however we have supplied thousands of these fixings and they are designed to hold the beams, perhaps it was an issue with your wall. Thanks you for choosing to shop with us, we hope to see you again!

“My beam is beautiful & the company went the extra mile to ensure it would arrive in time. I have only awarded 4 stars because the carrier didn't deliver on the due day- albeit they sent an email saying they had tried to deliver (they hadn't, there was no calling card left & someone was home all day). But it did arrive the following day whilst my builder was still here.”

We are sorry the courier did not deliver when they said they would, unfortunately it is out of our control but we will always do what we can to ensure your order gets to you as promptly as possible but leasing with the courier, sorry for any inconvenience caused.

“The beam itself was lovely, sturdy and a good colour. All the pictures on their Instagram account and the ones they sent over as examples of each colour were helpful in choosing. Only thing was one of the fixings was bent compared to the other two which made fixing it onto the wall difficult. It fixed securely with some help from a rubber mallot but put it this way, it isn't coming off again! The lighting is also very important to the colour appearance of the beam, pictures attatched are the walnut aged beam.”

Hi Emma, thanks for your review and photos. We are pleased to hear you are happy with the quality and finish of your beam, we are glad our samples and instagram page was helpful for you. Sorry to hear 1 of your fixings was bent, I can only assume this has happened during transit, we would have sent you another if we had of known :) Thanks for choosing to shop with Traditional Beams!

“The beam itself is really lovely and looks great. When we went to fix it to wall two of the screws that were used for mounting hooks were sheared off. So we had to actually chisel into wood in order to move the fixings so a new screw could be used. So maybe better quality screws would be my only suggestion.”

“Great beam, nice natural finish to the shaped Jacobean, nice feature natural split. But could have been packed better. It didn't arrive damaged but it could have had more packing around it to have made sure. We all know what couriers can be like and this was a very heavy piece. Time span for delivery a little over what was discussed but overall happy”

“PROS: delivery is good, The briquettes give out good heat CONS: the small size means more frequent reloading of the woodburner, not entirely sure that the briquettes are all oak.”

Helpful Report

Hi Thad, thanks for your review. We are pleased to hear you are happy with the heat the briquettes kick out :) Our Briquettes are composed of mostly oak shavings with a small percentage of redwood pine which is the only timber we run through our workshop - we have also just invested in a new briquette machine and the quality is amazing - they are bigger in size :)

“The actual product is great and exactly what I was looking for. The reason it's not a 5 star review is because the brackets were missing from the delivery which meant the arranged builder to fit it couldn't do as planned. Customer service was great and got the bracket outs asap.”

“Product price is a little too high but quality is good. Install would be much easier if a template was provided to identify where to drill fixing holes”

Hi Ian, thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear you are happy with the quality of your order, sorry to hear you feel the price is a little too high. Our timber is really well air dried for 3-5 years which reflects the price of our products, which is why can offer a lifetime guarantee. We have taken on board your comments regarding the template :)
