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

In Northern Ireland building work follows the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland), with guidance in the Technical Booklets, and applications go to the council's building control team.

Planning the drop in Dungannon

Timber is delivered in packs or bundles on a flatbed; long lengths need clear access along the drop point. Deliveries to Northern Ireland include a sea crossing, so we quote each order individually.

  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
  • With roughly 7h 16m of daylight in Dungannon around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
