Order planed timber for delivery in Montrose

Planed timber, often called PAR (planed all round), is softwood machined smooth on all four faces for joinery, trim and anything that will be seen.

SK Trade prices planed timber delivered to Montrose and the rest of Angus and Dundee, so the cost and the delivery date are agreed before anything is loaded.

Planning the drop in Montrose

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

  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • With roughly 6h 47m of daylight in Montrose around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.

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.

Sizing your order

A 3.8 × 4 m room with one door has about 14.8 m of wall to skirt. With 10% for joints and offcuts that is 16.3 m, or 4 lengths of 4.2 m skirting, plus architrave for each side of the door.

Your questions answered

Can I add other materials to my Montrose delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from planed timber to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

What does PAR mean?

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

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

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.

Why is my 2 × 4 smaller than 2 × 4 inches?

Timber is often named by its sawn size before planing. Once planed, it finishes smaller, so a nominal 2 × 4 is roughly 44 × 94 mm or less.
