Treated Carcassing Timber delivered to Scunthorpe

Carcassing timber is strength-graded, sawn softwood used for the structural frame of a building, such as floor joists, rafters, ceiling joists and stud walls.

We deliver carcassing timber to sites, driveways and yards across Scunthorpe, from a single pallet for a small job to full loads for bigger builds.

A floor 3 m wide with joists spanning 3.9 m at 400 mm centres needs 9 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.

Before you order carcassing timber

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.

Getting carcassing timber onto your Scunthorpe site

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

  • In summer Scunthorpe gets around 17h 03m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • With roughly 7h 27m of daylight in Scunthorpe around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Common questions from Scunthorpe

Can I add other materials to my Scunthorpe 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.

What lengths are available?

Common lengths run from 2.4 m to 4.8 m in 300 mm steps, with longer lengths to order.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Scunthorpe?

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.

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.
