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.

Matching old profiles

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

Getting planed timber onto your Rhondda site

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

  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around CF43 are priced to the exact address.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.

Estimating your planed timber

A 4.2 × 3.6 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.

Planed Timber & Mouldings in Rhondda: questions

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.

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 Rhondda 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.

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

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.
