S&J Wackett Timber Merchants was founded in 1985 by Simon and Jean Wackett, and has since passed through three generations of the family. Forty years on, we’re still operating from the same yard on Shelbourne Road, run by the same family — with a far broader product range and the logistics to deliver across London and the surrounding counties.

Our customer base includes local authorities, housing associations, principal contractors, joinery and carpentry firms, landscaping companies, and the general public. Each is served with the same level of attention: consistent product availability, knowledgeable advice, and fair, transparent pricing.

Whether you need a specific moulding profile to match existing work, the correct structural grade for a building project, or an ongoing contract-supply arrangement, our experienced staff are on hand by telephone or in person to assist.

We’re proud to be both FSC certified and PEFC certified, and every product we supply passes through a documented chain-of-custody process. That means the timber you buy from us is fully traceable back to the forest it came from, sourced from sustainably managed woodland.

For trade and contract customers who need to demonstrate responsible sourcing on their own projects, we can provide the certification paperwork your client, architect or building control will ask for.

What you can expect from us:

• Family-run since 1985 — third generation working the yard
• 40 years of product knowledge, by phone or in person
• FSC & PEFC certified with full chain-of-custody documentation
• Next-day delivery across London (subject to stock)
• Trade accounts and contract pricing available
