I have been self employed doing general carpentry work since 1980. I discovered P.O. Joyce in the 1990’s when I started doing work in north London area.

John Freeman

P O Joyce were recommended to me by a staircase manufacturer after receiving poor quality timber from other suppliers. It has been a revelation to buy timber that doesn’t resemble a banana and good quality sheet materials, which have helped my business. My guys no longer complain they can’t use the timber delivered. Their service is great and experience is second to none.

Ian Wiggins

I have been a customer of P O Joyce for many years and the reason I keep coming back is simply this. They sell good timber, they are knowledgeable, reliable and efficient , they are local and above all they give a fantastic service. It is a pleasure to do business with Thomas and his team.

Eoin McCarthy

In my 38 years of Carpentry I have always dealt with P.O.Joyce ltd and have found them to be approachable and helpful throughout the process of buying all my timber & boarding requirements. Both office and yard staff are efficient, knowledgeable and it is always a pleasure to visit the yard.

Kevin Becker

I have used P O Joyce regularly since the 1980s whilst working for BBC TV Special Effects Department and into the 2000s with the Model Unit @ Ealing Studios. I now find myself working in a wood workshop at a major university in London, with Joyce’s as our preferred supplier of timber and board as well as fittings and fasteners. Where material quality, communication, reliability of support and supply are paramount , the company is second to none. I know that if students are referred to the company that the customer support and advice will be there for them with an extra eye for detail. I would highly recommend them for all your wood related needs!

We have been using PO Joyce as our timber suppliers for many years now. We find the quality of the timber they supply, including other products on offer, to be of top quality. They are accommodating, helpful and they are always courteous. We look forward to continuing our long standing relationship with them for many more years to come.
