About Us
Withover 30 years’ experience,South London Timber has built an unrivalled reputation as the premier timber merchants serving customers across London and Kent
We have more than just a passion for all that’s good in wood; we’ve also developed a devotion for understanding the specific needs of each and every one of our clients.
Getting to know you – and why you choose us – gives us a lead over our competitors. Understanding your demands for the highest quality means we choose our timber from only the very best sources. And as the leading timber merchant, we buy at the keenest prices whilst always ensuring our products are rigidly compliant to today’s governing standards.
Today, much of our timber is from locally grown sources, allowing us to keep our costs low and reduce the carbon impact of haulage.
Strategically located for efficient operations
South London Timber is headquartered at the Questor Industrial Estate in Dartford, a strategic position linking Kent to south and central London. We have direct access to the A2 London-bound, Dartford Crossing/M25 and the M2 Kent, which helps us to provide excellent services to all the surrounding areas.
Our dedicated office and warehouses are a hive of constant activity, supplying some of the biggest construction and infrastructure projects in the capital.
This includes such landmark projects as the redevelopment of Battersea Power Station, the construction of the massive Elizabeth railway line, and the Thames Tideway Tunnel, among many others.
