Treated Carcassing Timber delivered in Powys towns

Quantities: a worked example

A floor 3.6 m wide with joists spanning 3.3 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.

Delivery to Powys: what helps

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 Powys.

  • On busy streets in Powys, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

Picking the right product

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.

Which treatment?

Treatment is specified by use class. Timber inside a building is usually use class 1 or 2; external timber out of ground contact is use class 3; timber in ground contact needs use class 4.

Wales has its own Approved Documents, including its own Part L for energy efficiency, and building control is handled by the local authority or a registered approver.

Treated Carcassing Timber questions

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.

Can you cut timber to length?

Ask when you request a price; we will tell you what cutting is possible for your order.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Powys?

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.

Can I add other materials to my Powys 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.
