Uses for Timber
Timber is a highly popular material due to its flexibility and all of the different things it can be used for. It can be used in construction, DIY projects, building work, gardening and many more. But why is timber so popular? It has been important for hundreds of years in the building and production of many buildings. Timber is 100% renewable and therefore it is much better for the environment to use this material. This also means that it will never run out, meaning you’ll always have access to some form of timber. Timber is also an extremely strong material due to the make-up of it and how it is cut, therefore extremely durable and perfect for any project that requires timber. Timber can be used for just about anything, and we would strongly recommend this material for any building work or project! Some of the best uses for timber include fencing, flooring, furniture, scaffolding, cladding and many more. In the section below we discuss the main types of timber that we stock for. If what you’re looking for is not on the list, please give us a call and we will do our best to source those specific materials for you.
Timber Supplies at Stan Dawson
Decking: For all your decking needs, we have a great choice of stock. We have a range of different wood structures for all kinds of decking. You should ensure the materials you choose are durable and are hard-wearing 
so that your decking is long-lasting and you won’t have to replace it for many years. Most of our decking is softwood as it is usually the best option for decking, though we have many other types too.
Plywood: Plywood is an extremely popular material with custom builders as it can be used for both exterior and interiors of houses. This includes roofing, flooring, furniture and many more. Plywood is extremely strong, almost 25 times stronger than many other types of timber. We can also cut to size if you require a specific cut of plywood or need something more customised.
Railway Sleepers: These are ideal for garden projects or unique construction. Railway sleepers are usually known for holding together train tracks, however, many old sleepers are now sold at Stan Dawson for other uses. They are full of character and have been sourced from many historic areas such as the high-level bridge. We have various sizes and grades of sleepers available.
Cladding: For your garden shed or other building works, our timber cladding is a perfect solution for this. It is much more sustainable for the environment and provides a beautiful interior or exterior for your shed. We offer both treated and untreated versions, depending on what you’re going to use it for.
Flooring: We stock both hardwood and softwood flooring. The choice between the two will depend on your design requirements and preferences. We also offer reclaimed timber flooring for those who prefer a more traditional look.
This is just a small list of some of the many different types of timber we offer. For more information on Timber Merchants in Newcastle upon Tyne, please get in touch with us today on 01661 860413. Alternatively, visit our yard in Ponteland to take a look at our current stock of timber materials.
