Choosing planed timber

Nominal versus finished size

Planing takes material off, so a timber sold as 'nominal' 2 × 4 finishes smaller. Always check finished sizes when you need an exact fit.

Softwood or MDF trim?

MDF skirting and architrave is very straight and paints well; softwood takes knocks better and can be stained.

Delivery to Bathgate: what helps

Finished timber is protected and handled with care; tell us if it needs to go inside out of the weather. Bathgate is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around EH48 are priced to the exact address.
  • In summer Bathgate gets around 17h 36m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.

Quantities: a worked example

A 3.4 × 3.2 m room with one door has about 12.4 m of wall to skirt. With 10% for joints and offcuts that is 13.6 m, or 4 lengths of 4.2 m skirting, plus architrave for each side of the door.

Planed Timber & Mouldings in Bathgate: questions

How soon can planed timber be delivered in Bathgate?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

Can you deliver planed timber to a site with restricted access in Bathgate?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

How should I store planed timber?

Flat, off the ground and inside if possible, so it does not take on moisture and move before fitting.

What does PAR mean?

Planed all round: the timber has been machined smooth on all four faces.
