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

Delivery to Paisley: what helps

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

  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • On busy streets in Paisley, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

A quick quantity check

A floor 4.2 m wide with joists spanning 3.9 m at 400 mm centres needs 12 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 Paisley

Why is my treated timber green or brown?
