After having specified and reiterated the exact finish of wood I was looking for, I was sent the incorrect product. Causing the project unnecessary delay and stress. This was after I was charged three times for the same product due to a substandard website.

Excellent service . I want to commend Richard Priest and Alastair Hacket who dealt with my order. I was visiting Birmingham from Brighton and they dealt with my order by phone and email. They were excellent and helped me tremendously and made sure I got the product I needed and at the right time of my visit .

You sent the wrong size wood 25x25 instead of 25x38, thought it was me until I checked my invoice, delivery man was very nice and helpful though.

The service was great - but the product was poor. Then again it was only £5 worth of external timber.

I couldn't fault the helpfulness of the guy on the counter when I called at the Oldbury Depot to collect my order. His general manner and helpfulness is the only reason I've given a 'Good' rating. The condition of the items I had ordered really left a lot to be desired. My order was for 24 x Decking Spindles and what I did find extremely disappointing was the condition the spindles were in. The whole stack from which my order was fulfilled was absolutely wet through. If I had not had so much difficulty finding a Company who stocked the Cheshire Mouldings Stop Chamfered Spindles which I particularly wanted then I certainly would have refused to accept what was being offered to me. They were in a terrible condition and I was extremely surprised a company such as Laver were selling items in this state. I had also travelled 38 miles (76 mile round trip) to collect them so I had to also take that into account when deciding whether to accept them or not. I took them home and had to put them out in the sun each day to dry them out before being able to use them and before they were dry enough to apply the decking oil on them. So all in all regret this purchase was not a marvellous experience. Colin Brain

Very disappointed in the service from your company after initial excellent help when enquiring about worktops. Ordered & paid for worktops on wed 20th May 2015. Not contacted so phoned 27/05/2015 & got put through to London depot. Someone phoned back approx 1 hr later to say order coming from Bradford & that someone would phone next day, thurs, to arrange delivery date for next week. Have received no further phone call. Tried to phone depot this am & no reply. Very very disappointed with customer service .. just hope if & when worktops arrive that they're up to scratch! !!

Ordered online, received the phone call as stated. Very polite staff, offered to help load the car on pick up, the timber is excellent quality and cut to the length I requested.

On line service is easy to use and very efficient, telesales girl was very knowlegable answering my one question, the dispatch very helpful with the time of delivery and the driver very patient and full of good humour during the unload in the rain. Well done everyone concerned, a service to be proud of.

I'll definitely recommend Lavers to others. I ordered online and customer service called to say they would be a slight delay with delivery ( not a problem as they let me know straight away) The delivery came on the day specified and the products are perfect. Really pleased, thank you!

Delivery could be better as the timber went to the wrong address but the man was good man when he got there but he didn't do much in terms of off loading.

I placed an order for 13 sheets of 18mm and six sheets of 9mm Medite MDF. The 18mm arrived but not the 9mm still waiting. There was no communication from the office but at least the driver was very helpful. Just a normal to poor level of service and communication which is what I have come to expect from the majority of suppliers.

I asked for a Friday afternoon delivery, but was told this could not be guaranteed and that someone wold call me to confirm the delivery time. However no one called so I waited in from 8;30am. At 5pm the delivery had still not arrived so I called to see if I would still be receiving it. The lady told me she would call me back but never did. So at 5;45 I called again, I was told it would defiantly be arriving. At 6;30 it finally arrived. Ill try Wicks next time...

I order quite a lot of pre-finished Kota skirting boards and architraves - most of which were damaged inside there wrappings on delivery and could never be used. Hats off to Laver though who looked into it and found a supplier problem. I thought it might be a battle to get a refund but communications with the company were first rate and was refunded without issue. Would definitely recommend, but stay away from Kota products regardless of supplier you chose.

Excellent service from ordering to delivery. Order was exactly as I had ordered and the quality of timber was A1. Driver was very helpful and friendly. Delivery came within a week. Very satisfied with Laver and will definitely use them again in the future.

After buying online I received fantastic local service from the Hull branch, quick delivery and the driver was really professional and friendly. Will definitely use again for my next DIY project.
