Order planed timber for delivery in Plymouth

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.

From PL2 to PL3, we price planed timber delivered to Plymouth and confirm the drop point and date when you order.

How delivery works in Plymouth

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

  • With roughly 8h 01m of daylight in Plymouth 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.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

Before you order planed timber

Matching old profiles

Bring an offcut or a clear profile photo with measurements and we will look for the closest current profile.

Softwood or MDF trim?

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

Common questions from Plymouth

How soon can planed timber be delivered in Plymouth?

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.

What does PAR mean?

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

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.

Can I add other materials to my Plymouth 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.
