We provide timber for all types of internal fit-outs, our timber species range is enormous.

This is due to the fact that we only collect trees from urban yards and farms.The range of trees we plant in our gardens come from all over the world, which is reflected in our timber range.

We often carry up to 150 different species of timber.
