Our Story
Bringing warmth from our family to yours.
Who We Are
Blakes Logs supplies sustainably sourced firewood across Essex and Suffolk. Based in Colchester and family-run, we produce all our logs from local arborist and woodland management work, never imported or farmed timber.
This approach cuts carbon miles, reduces waste, and helps protect local woodlands.
From splitting and seasoning to doorstep delivery, we handle every step in-house, ensuring consistent quality and service.
Our hardwood offers efficient, reliable burning for stoves and fireplaces alike. And don't discount our softwood, which often gets unfair criticism. In countries like Norway and Sweden, it’s the preferred choice. It's quick to light, clean to burn, and ideal for everyday heating.
Choose Blakes Logs for a sustainable, local business who is committed to better firewood for a better future.
Ready to Burn Certified
Our firewood carries the Ready to Burn certification, which means every log meets strict UK standards for moisture content and clean burning. Certified wood lights more easily, produces more heat, and creates less smoke. This supports better air quality and gives you a more reliable and efficient burn every time.
We only supply properly seasoned firewood that meets these requirements so you can order with confidence, knowing your logs are approved for safe and responsible use.
