Highly Recommend Timberwise

Timberwise from start to finish were excellent. This is a professional company with customer service at its heart. We had an issue with damp in our house. Timberwise sent out one of their own surveyors to review the situation. The surveyor explained what the issue was, and a full survey report was received within a week. There was no obligation to proceed with the remedial work and no 'hard sell'. After reading previous reviews we already had confidence in Timeberwise and took the decision to proceed with the work. The work was carried out on the date it was arranged and was to high standard. All mess was cleaned up. It can be a minefield when trying to arrange works such as damp issues, but Timberwise took all the stress away. I would highly recommend Timberwise.

Great and professional advice
Contacted Timberwise to advise on a potential dry rot problem in our attic. We were worried about this as one other builder (NOT Timberwise) who came to look at the problem quoted us for nothing less than the complete replacement of rafters and roof at £50k+, citing unsolvable dry rot and woodworm problems. After sending some pictures, Jenna at Timberwise replied quickly that we didn’t have a dry rot problem at all, and that it was just a matter of improving ventilation in the area. She sent us great and convincing documentation from the Timberwise site. All free of charge! This put our minds at ease, and obviously saved us loads of money, time and hassle. Highly recommended, actual experts at what they do (unlike some others out there!)

Ashley George, the Timberwise rep arrived on time & was very professional during his survey. He was able to confirm the cause of the problem & discussed various measures we could take to remove the condensation without undergoing expensive & disruptive works. He was able to advise on what equipment we needed & how to manage issues such as humidity & air ventilation. All in all, we were very impressed with the service provided.

I found Timberwise through Which? Trusted Traders. My appointment time was set up quickly and efficiently. I had my survey today, by Craig, and was really impressed by his knowledge, professionalism, friendliness and level of detail covered. My report arrived hours after my visit and was helpful and thorough. Thank you, Timberwise. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company.

I had a timber survey from the Devon branch. The surveyor, Ashley, was meticulous and careful, putting carpets and floor coverings back with no disturbance. He gave helpful and well considered advice and was available to speak further if required. Highly recommended.

Woodworm survey
This is the first time I have used Timberwise in a domestic capacity having used them previously for commercial works. I contacted timberwise by telephone and left a message and also filled in the website enquiry. I was pleased to receive a response the next working day to my email enquiry and a return call the following day to my meassage! Much more proactive than their competitors that I am still awaiting a call back from. Jenna who handled my enquiry was super efficient in arranging the survey with the current owners of the property and keeping me informed. Survey was booked for a date within 3 weeks of my initial enquiry. If the quality of the survey and post survey experience is as good as what I have received to date I will be most impressed by Timberwise.

Great experience from start to finish. We had a one and a half day woodworm treatment by Mark from the Sherborne branch, and the service was professional, on-time, polite and very tidy. We hardly knew he was here!

Used Timberwise on recommendation from homebuyers, we found them easy to contact and with a friendly call handler who was really helpful, nothing was too much trouble and the process was explained in detail. Anouska really put our minds at rest and had a friendly manner when contacted. Booking the work was at our convenience, and the tradesman's name was given to us in advance so we knew who was to attend. On the allotted day Timberwise turned up well within the suggested timeframe, and he introduced himself as Daniel, and what a pleasant young man, couldn’t fault his attention to detail and took the time to explain to us the process and time to complete the work. We would recommend this company.

Unsatisfactory

Overall the service was unsatisfactory and did not meet expectations, given the cost. The positives: the back office were very responsive, accessible and helpful in resolving issues and communicating updates. Unfortunately, the fact that they had to resolve a number of issues is a testament to service received. There were a number of delays which meant a job that was supposed to be 1-2 weeks took six weeks. Work had to be redone and messages repeated a number of times as the team changed over the course of the job. Finally, the work itself was compromised requiring additional guarantees.

A Which? Trusted Traders staff member replied on behalf of the trader (on 22/11/2021)
Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review. Unfortunately on this occasion, it seems that we did not provide the customer experience that we pride ourselves on. There were regrettably unavoidable delays with this project as a result of team members being struck down with COVID as well as a family bereavement. As a result of this the team members working on your project did change at times. As with many other construction based companies we also suffered from a shortage of materials at the time of installation which added further to the delay. Finally, due to the age of the property, as the installation progressed additional necessary works were uncovered which needed to be carried out. At the end of the project we issued our standard long term guarantees for the works that were carried out.
