Yesterday we received the three metre kitchen benchtop we ordered. We just had to write and tell you how pleased we are with it. It looks superb on our dark coloured base cabinets.

The staff at WR Timbers were really helpful and polite. I had no idea what I was looking for and they were patient and took me through the whole process of picking the right flooring for my reno. The were happy with a smalll deposit and got the wood in in the exact time they said they would have it. They kept in touch the whole way through and also supplied the glue that they reccomend for the job. Great team of people to work with. The delivery guy was very nice as well.
