How delivery works in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire

Timber is delivered in packs or bundles on a flatbed; long lengths need clear access along the drop point. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.

• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Getting the right carcassing timber

Treat any cut ends with a suitable end-grain preservative, especially on external work.

Which treatment?

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.
