At Vastern Timber we specialise in the production and supply of British hard and softwood timbers for the traditional building and heritage conservation markets.
Although timber usually represents only a small part of the overall architectural design of a project, it can be a time consuming and costly process to source timbers to the correct specifications.
By involving us in the early stages of your project, you will benefit in a number of ways as we will
- provide a wealth of specialist knowledge
- advise on the suitability of species and specifications
- use our estimators to cost the bill of quantities
- refer you to our qualified timber graders.
