Hi, welcome to the Mobile Sawing Services web site. We focus solely on mobile sawing of timber at the owner’s premises. We are located in the North West however we cover the majority of the UK mainland. The sawing is mainly carried out using a mobile band saw and a simple, but versatile chainsaw mill.

One of the major advantages of milling on site is that the normal transport costs to and from a mill are removed which offers a significant saving over normally purchased timber, especially on small numbers of high value timbers.

The value of our native hardwood is often massively under- estimated, for example a 3 feet diameter butt, 10 feet long can have a value of £1000 in its green (wet) state after milling and if the timber is air dried this value is likely to increase to around £3000. If you sold this piece of timber 'in the round' to the local firewood dealer you would be lucky to realise a meagre £100. So, if you have access to one tree or several then it is well worth getting them milled.

Our contracts range in size from one tree in someone’s front garden, to larger scale operations for timber merchants, county councils and country estates. The timber is put to a variety of uses, which include general construction, bespoke furniture manufacture or beams for restoration projects.

For any of you who are thinking of getting into milling yourselves we are also able to offer courses covering all types of milling from basic to advanced levels. Each course is tailored to meet your requirements. These courses are very popular with tree surgeons as they enable them to turn a timber into a high value saleable product rather than just firewood.
