Transport for Fibre Cement products

Our business has evolved over the last few years and we are enjoying increased demand for cladding products.  James Hardie supply a range of fibre cement cladding, aluminium trims and speciailist fittings including coloured paint and colour head stainless screws. We also get requests from all over the UK for Hardie's Geckgo Gauges, Circular Saw Blades and Guillotines.  Transport has traditionally been a challenge but we are finding more cost-effective ways of moving products around Mainland UK.

Growing Demand for Glulams

More buidlings seem to be requiring glulams, Glued Laminated Timber glulams. They are manufactured by bonding together individual laminations of solid timber. This produces a timber cross-section that is larger and longer than may normally be obtained simply by machining a standard log. Glulam products are readily available, extremely reliable and flexible in design.

Autumn is creeping in, the chimeras, log fires and burners are ready for action, but are your logs stored neat and tidy?  At Southern Timber we have options for you - Hutton (Devon and Cornwall), Rowlinson Garden Products (free UK Mainland delivery and Forest Garden (free UK Mainland delivery)
