Strong, Straight, & Built to Last
The right timber supplies don’t just support your structure—they define the quality, longevity, and appearance of your entire build. From structural integrity to aesthetic appeal, choosing timber that’s straight, seasoned, and correctly treated for the job makes all the difference.
Whether you’re working on an interior renovation, building a pergola, or laying a new deck, the timber you select should suit the location, exposure, and type of finish you’re aiming for. Our range includes everything from framing and support beams to decorative panels and cladding, so you can tailor your selection to suit both form and function.
For those planning to stain or apply paint, smooth, kiln-dried options help deliver a professional, long-lasting finish with fewer touch-ups down the track. Properly sealed timber resists moisture, UV damage, and general wear and tear—especially important in coastal or outdoor settings.
When you’ve got access to dependable timber supplies, every cut, join, and coat of paint brings you closer to a job well done.
What type of timber is best for outdoor use?
Treated pine and hardwoods like Merbau or Spotted Gum are commonly used for outdoor projects because they’re resistant to rot, termites, and harsh weather. Treated pine is versatile and cost-effective, making it great for fencing, decks, and garden beds. Hardwood is denser, often longer-lasting, and preferred for high-traffic areas like decking. Always check the treatment rating—H3 is suitable for above-ground use, while H4 is rated for in-ground contact. Apply a high-quality exterior paint or timber stain to enhance longevity and protect the surface from UV and moisture damage.
Can I paint treated timber straight away?
Treated timber should be allowed to dry before painting, especially if it feels damp or freshly milled. Painting timber that still contains moisture can result in blistering, flaking, or poor adhesion. Once dry, sand the surface lightly to improve paint bonding, and apply a suitable primer before using exterior-grade paint. For best results, use a product designed for timber and follow the manufacturer's recommendations for drying times and coats.
Do I need to seal timber before painting it?
Yes—especially if you want your paint to last. Sealing timber helps prevent water absorption, reduces warping, and allows the topcoat to adhere more effectively. Most projects benefit from applying a primer or undercoat designed specifically for timber surfaces. This is especially important for softwoods or treated timber, which can be more porous. Sealing not only improves the durability of your finish but also enhances colour coverage and prevents tannin bleed on hardwoods.
