Treated Carcassing Timber: choosing well

Cut ends

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

C16 or C24?

C24 is stronger and stiffer, so it can span further or use a smaller section. Span tables and your structural drawings decide which grade and size you need.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

Delivery to Blackpool: what helps

Timber is delivered in packs or bundles on a flatbed; long lengths need clear access along the drop point. Blackpool is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• On busy streets in Blackpool, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
• Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.

How much will you need?

A floor 3.6 m wide with joists spanning 4.2 m at 400 mm centres needs 10 joists, plus trimmers and noggins. The section and grade, such as 47 × 200 mm C24, come from span tables or your engineer; send us the timber schedule and we will price it.

Common questions from Blackpool

Can I add other materials to my Blackpool delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from carcassing timber to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Blackpool?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

Why is my treated timber green or brown?

The colour comes from the preservative. It fades over time and does not tell you how well the timber is protected; the use class does.

Is your carcassing timber treated?

We supply treated carcassing as standard for structural work. Tell us if the timber is for external or ground-contact use so we supply the right treatment level.
