Driver went above and beyond
It was easy to order and pay online. I was given clear information about delivery date and time. The driver went above and beyond as he placed the sleepers just where I wanted them to build my raised veg bed. Thankyou Helston Bradfords.

Great Attitude All Round !!
To be honest, we as a company have been using Bradfords Helston Branch since it opened and I can honestly say what a great bunch of people and always happy to help. However, I must say that Steve Carter is a star. Knowledgeable, kind and a very personable guy who always goes above and beyond to help and genuinely, nothing is too much trouble. Steve often takes time to explain products and offers advice for various substitutions for projects that we have on the go. Thank you.

Another successful delivery!
Another successful delivery (we live on a residential park home estate and the road ways are narrow, deliveries can be stressful!)
Driver was friendly and helpful, happy to tuck timber at the back of our property rather just unloading it on the nearest spot!
