Picking the right product

Softwood or MDF trim?

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

Matching old profiles

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

Delivering planed timber in Watford

Finished timber is protected and handled with care; tell us if it needs to go inside out of the weather. Watford 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.
• In summer Watford gets around 16h 40m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• On busy streets in Watford, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Common questions from Watford

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 soon can planed timber be delivered in Watford?

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.

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.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Watford?

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.
