What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Community projects, private garden rooms and bespoke builds recur throughout the feedback for Browns Timber Buildings, a Bolton firm whose customers describe work ranging from a volunteer space in Oldham to a beach hut and a home sauna. Several reviewers highlight the quality of the finished result, praising a faultless standard and genuine care over both exterior and interior. Reliability and punctuality come up repeatedly, with jobs finished inside the promised timeframe and minor snags sorted without delay.

Two young carpenters, Ben and Joe, are singled out for their diligence, courtesy and woodworking skill, while Chris is credited with the original design and candid guidance, Craig with turning that design into reality, and Luke with maintaining contact by email and telephone. Communication throughout the build is commended, as are the tidiness of the crews on site and the limited disruption caused. Customers also note sensible pricing for the specification, with options and straightforward opinions offered on what a budget would cover, and the professionalism of the teams from first concept through to completion. Year-round garden rooms, a sauna and a meticulously detailed beach hut all feature among the finished projects.

Left with half a building and had to find another company to finish it after 6 months of waiting! I'd avoid this place like the plague. The new owners committed to finishing my building and have ghosted everyone one of their customers. I've had my building finished off by the lovely people at the Timber Rooms who could not have done enough for me considering the desperate situation I was in! I had a building with no roof and no windows for 6 months despite paying in full. It cost me an additional 5,000 to have it sorted and if I could go back in time and pick a different company to work with I would! Don't risk your money!

We are delighted with our garden room. The young joiners (Ben and Joe) are wonderful, they worked so hard in the heat of the summer and got the job done within a week. They were polite, tidy, hard working and talented woodworkers. The concrete man (Danny) was brilliant too, conscientious and really wanted us to be happy with his work. The only reason I dropped a star is because the electrician arrived late and had to complete the job the following week. That was fine for us but we've ended up with a light that doesn't have a switch and keeps turning on and off. Browns did get him to fix it but he didn't really resolve the issue. We will sort it ourselves. Otherwise I would recommend Browns, Chris tries his hardest for customers and does a great job and the finished product is beautiful.

We are really pleased with the building that Brown's Timber put up for us on our Community Growing project in Oldham. It is a clean, dry and warm space for our volunteers to take a break.

Amazing company. From first contact to sign off on a build they were true professionals. Kept me updated, had a wealth of options and designs for a build and could not do enough to help me get the right build for my garden space. The outcome, a gorgeous building that is safe, warm, secure, and a pleasure to be in, and looks amazing. Full support throughout, all the people who got the build done in 4 days were the top of their profession, clean and accommodating and did a great job. Could not recommend them enough. Sat completing this from my warm garden office studio and could not be more happy with what I paid, and what the finished product looks and feels like. Give them a try you will not be disappointed.
