Great Service
This is such a great service. I'm thrilled with my purchases. I'm disabled and could not have managed to organise what I needed any other way. Thank you CutMy.

Fast service, good quality from the company - only let down by the delivery driver who couldn't fathom out how to lift a latch on a gate and just left parcel without attempting to knock or call.

Nice website and efficient service
Nice website showing the cut piece. Good prices and reasonably quick delivery (and well packed to reduce possibility of damage). This is my second order from CutMy.
Most importantly, the pieces were accurately cut using the specified material. i.e. no errors.
It couldn't have been better unless it was free :)

Great service from Cut My.
This was my first time using Cut My supplier to cut a piece of wood to a specific size. I am very happy with the service i received from them.
My order arrived safe, securely wrapped and in good condition.
I will recommend this supplier to friends and will use them again for this type of service.

Perfect solution.
Great quality smoky perspex cut to the exact spec to replace actual glass on my coffee table in order to make it child proof. It fits perfectly and looks like the real McCoy! Saved me buying a new coffee table. Win, win👌
Placing order was very straight forward. Acrylic sheets arrived very quickly and extremely well packed with protective film either side.
The 4mm thick Acrylic sheets now installed, very clear and without scratches or marks. I would recommend this Company.

New Shed Windows
I was initially a little worried about some of the recent negative reviews but based on my experience, I can't fault Cut/My's perspex service. Excellent quality materials, delivered on the day promised, size absolutely spot-on. My shed's now got new windows.
