High-Quality Timber Products for Construction and DIY Projects

We provide a wide range of high-quality timber products suited for construction, carpentry, and outdoor projects. Whether you’re working on structural framing, roofing, or garden work, our timber options are carefully selected for durability and versatility.

Treated Timber for Longevity

Treated timber is a key product in our selection because of its resilience and long-lasting properties. During the treatment process, the wood is infused with preservatives that protect it against moisture, rot, and insect damage. This makes treated timber ideal for both outdoor and indoor applications, particularly where exposure to the elements is a concern.

For smaller construction tasks or frameworks, the 2 x 2 C24 Treated Timber is a reliable choice. It offers good strength while being compact enough for projects like small framing, fencing, or bracing. For larger, more demanding applications, such as decking or roofing, the 6 x 2 C24 Treated Timber provides the additional support and load-bearing capacity needed for robust structures.

Timber Battens for Structural Support

Timber battens are commonly used in a variety of structural applications, from roofing and cladding to fencing. At Tommy’s Timber, we offer several sizes and types of battens, all treated to ensure longevity and resistance to outdoor conditions.

For general roofing and light fencing tasks, the 19 x 38 Type A Batten (10 Pack) is a popular option. Its smaller size makes it a practical choice for lightweight constructions. If you require more substantial support, the 25 x 38 Type A Batten (10 Pack) provides additional strength, making it suitable for heavier-duty projects. For even larger structural requirements, the 25 x 50 Type A Batten (10 Pack) offers robust support where extra stability is necessary.

CLS Timber for Framework

For indoor construction and partition walls, CLS timber is widely used due to its smooth surface and consistent dimensions. It is particularly suited for framing projects where precision is essential, such as building stud walls, internal partitions, and other non-load-bearing structures.

The 4 x 2 CLS Timber is versatile and easy to work with. It’s planned and finished, reducing the risk of splintering during handling, and it can be used in various internal framing applications. This timber is commonly used in both residential and commercial building projects, offering a balance of strength and ease of installation.

Understanding Timber Grades

When selecting timber for your project, it’s important to consider timber grading, which reflects the structural quality of the wood. For instance, C24-graded timber is a higher-grade softwood that has been strength-tested to ensure it can handle more demanding applications, such as roofing, flooring, or load-bearing walls. C24 timber is commonly used in construction projects where reliability and strength are critical, especially in environments where the timber may be exposed to high levels of moisture or heavy loads.

At Tommy’s Timber, we stock various sizes of C24 treated timber, including options like the 3 x 2 C24 Treated Timber for smaller framing tasks, and larger options like the 7 x 2 C24 Treated Timber for more substantial structural needs.

Choosing the Right Timber for Your Project

Selecting the right timber depends on several factors, including the specific requirements of your project, the conditions the timber will be exposed to, and the level of structural support needed. Treated timber is a good choice for any outdoor application, while timber battens and CLS timber are better suited for framing and lighter construction tasks.

Whether you’re building a deck, installing new fencing, or working on a construction project, our timber products are designed to offer reliability and durability.
