The Wood Store Brighton (Brighton & Hove Wood Recycling Project)

We went to the workshop in Brighton and worked with the team to create a 10 seater table for our kitchen.We were so pleased with the customer service and advice we recieved, the quality of the bespoke kitchen table we now have and the turn around time.We would highly recommend buying furniture from here. We feel the quality of table is superior to other furniture stores we looked at such as Habitat, and Furniture Village, and that the furniture can be made to order means and our we helped create the design makes this a unique place to buy furniture.

Rick was a complete icon, made a woodworker out of me despite my complete lack of skills and patience! I went in with half an idea for a wooden frame I wanted to build and he helped it come to fruition by helping me with drawings, specifications and supplementing my general lack of knowledge. What a cracking place! Below shows Rick’s drawings and the final result of my build. I take no credit !

Great business, help and advice, range and price. Will definitely use again ... an absolute gem of a shop!

Fantastic shop.Very friendly helpful owner, excellent value, local Brighton business. We bought a small side table made from recycled scaffold planks, which looks superb in our lounge. We will also regularly return for firewood and kindling and some window boxes we have our eye on. Highly recommended.

Brought a second set of shelves to match the ones we brought 5 years ago and I asked for a quick turnaround so that they could get put up on the kitchen with everything else, they didn't disappoint!

One of my favourite places in Brighton , inspiring, and affordable wood , tables , shelves and all things to prepare wood too .Friendly, knowledgeable staff team , central location, .Please support this local project.Great workshops days offered and bespoke work .

I love The Wood Store! I ordered some fantastic pallet collars (for delivery during lockdown) having seen them on their Instagram and then messaged my neighbours who wanted some more etc. I kept adding to the order and ringing, texting etc.I am sure they must have thought I was a complete nutter! They were so friendly kind and helpful and everyone here is absolutely delighted with their fantastic pop-up raised beds/coldframes/tortoise runs - they are brilliant! Thank you to everyone at The Wood Store ❤️

If you haven't been to this place yet, drop in soon, it is special, a true community based social enterprise that benefits everyone it reaches. The stock always offers the potential of something unique, as they're selling reclaimed wood, but there is also generally a reliable level of stock for your basic timber needs, including a decent range of fixtures and fittings (also reclaimed), as well as a range of art and furniture, made in house. They also have a pretty good stock of bits and bobs going spare that are not sellable. In terms of the service to community, they employ people or provide decent internships for students and graduates, as well as opportunities to explore and develop their practice. As a customer I know that if I have an idea I want to float l or some technical questions, there is little point in me going to one of the big name stores as they are just moving and selling stock, with no passion for the work or skill. At The Wood Store you will speak to someone who works with wood every day and has a background in the arts or trades associated with woodwork. See the pic for the set of drawers I built with their wood and support in terms of expertise and advice. :)

Really friendly and helpful service. Had a bespoke bookshelf built from scaffolding boards. Gave great advice with the design, they do delivery. Highly recommended
