Frequently Asked Questions

Get in touch
Do you offer a planing or flattening service?

Yes, we can plane or flatten slabs up to 800mm wide, leaving a smooth, ready-to-finish surface.

Can you cut the slab to size before delivery?

Yes, we can trim to your specified dimensions or leave the natural live edge intact.

What finishes can I apply to the wood?

Most customers use natural oils or waxes. Red Oak, Ash and Elm all take finishes evenly and produce a rich tone when treated.

What does 'spalted' mean?

Spalting is a natural patterning process caused by fungal activity, creating unique dark lines and colour variations within the wood.

Is the timber kiln-dried or air-dried?

All slabs are air-dried naturally on site before sale. For certain projects, kiln-drying can be arranged on request.

Do you deliver nationwide?

Yes, we deliver throughout the UK using trusted couriers. Local collection from our New Forest yard is also available.

Can I view the slabs before purchasing?

Absolutely – you're welcome to visit the sawmill to view available stock and discuss your project in person.

How should I store the slab before finishing?

Keep the slab in a dry, stable environment to allow it to acclimatise to room temperature before planing or finishing.
