06 Feb Crafting Excellence: Brookridge Timber’s Commitment to Premium Joinery Timber Standards

At Brookridge Timber, we understand that finding quality joinery timber poses significant challenges, but our dedication and meticulous approach set us apart as a leading joinery timber supplier in the South West.

Challenges in Sourcing Quality Joinery Timber

The quest for high-grade joinery timber faces several hurdles:

1. Variability in Timber Grades: With grades ranging from sixths (lowest) to unsorted (highest), discerning the appropriate quality for specific projects requires expertise. Many suppliers may not offer the comprehensive range that meets varying project demands.
2. Quality Consistency: Ensuring consistent quality, especially in higher grades like unsorted timber, demands strong supplier relationships and rigorous selection processes, which are not universally prioritised in the industry.
3. Treatment Precision: Properly treating timber to extend its service life while maintaining its dimensional precision, as in low-pressure treatments, demands advanced technology and strict quality control, often lacking in generic timber treatment facilities.
