Before your Reading delivery arrives
Finished timber is protected and handled with care; tell us if it needs to go inside out of the weather. Reading is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
- With roughly 7h 50m of daylight in Reading around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
Picking the right product
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.
Estimating your planed timber
A 3.4 × 4.6 m room with one door has about 15.2 m of wall to skirt. With 10% for joints and offcuts that is 16.7 m, or 4 lengths of 4.2 m skirting, plus architrave for each side of the door.
Ordering planed timber for Reading: FAQs
Is there a minimum order for delivery to Reading?
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.
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 Reading 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.
Do you sell MDF skirting?
Yes, primed MDF skirting and architrave in common profiles, alongside softwood.
