Light, durable woods make for superb cladding
Whether you’re looking for a contemporary shadow gap, traditional cartlodge featheredge or something else altogether, we have the solution for you.
We’re quite particular about the timber we recommend for cladding so we can make sure you achieve the best finish possible.
Western Red Cedar
Rightly popular, cedar’s versatility, durability and sleek finish make it one of our favourites – perfect for contemporary buildings, impressive colour consistency and minimal knots make it very easy to work with.

Douglas Fir
With two grades available offering both different aesthetics and performance, this timber has become increasingly popular to use as true Siberian Larch is no longer an option. Our slow grown stock is the “creme de la creme” of Fir available in the UK.

European Oak
Highly durable and full of character, we can supply air-dried or kiln-dried cladding depending on your requirements. European oak is well suited to traditional featheredge, but when machined smooth also works well in modern settings.

Accoya
Accoya is a chemically modified softwood. With enhanced durability, accoya paints well with a high quality, smooth appearance – when installed and finished properly Accoya can look the part for years to come, making it particularly popular for exposed locations and commercial “maintenance-free” needs.
