1. High-Quality Timber for Every Need

• Joinery Timber: Perfect for non-structural uses such as skirting boards, architraves, door linings, and bespoke furniture.
• Structural Carcassing Timber: Strong, durable, and graded timber ideal for load-bearing structures and framing.
• Agricultural Timber: We cater to the agricultural sector with products like stockwalling, purlins, posts, stakes, and strainers.
• Timber Fencing and Landscaping Products: Including fence panels, posts, decking, and sleepers for creating beautiful and functional outdoor spaces.

By offering such a comprehensive selection, we make sure that both professionals and DIYers can find the exact timber products they need for their projects, whether big or small.

2. Sustainable, Environmentally-Conscious Sourcing

In an age where sustainability matters more than ever, we are committed to sourcing our timber responsibly. Brookridge Timber is proud to offer FSC®-certified and PEFC-certified timber products, ensuring that the wood we supply comes from sustainably managed forests. This focus on sustainability not only helps to protect the environment but also gives our customers the peace of mind that they’re making a responsible choice. By supporting a local timber supplier with strong ethical practices, customers are helping to foster sustainable business practices in their communities.

3. Expert Advice and Friendly Service

One of the most significant advantages of working with your local Somerset and Devon timber trader is the level of expertise and personal service that simply can’t be matched by larger chains or online-only retailers. At Brookridge Timber, our staff are knowledgeable, approachable, and always ready to provide guidance. Whether you’re uncertain about the type of timber you need, the right grade for a specific job, or the correct treatment for outdoor use, our team is on hand to help.

For tradespeople, this expertise can streamline projects by ensuring that the correct materials are used right from the start, reducing the chance of costly mistakes. For DIYers, our team provides peace of mind, guiding you in the selection of materials that fit both your budget and your project requirements.

4. High-Quality Timber Treatments for Longevity

Timber treatment is essential for projects where wood will be exposed to the elements or used in structural applications. At Brookridge Timber, we offer both high-pressure and low-pressure timber treatment options, with processes carried out in our factory-controlled, ISO 9001 audited facility. This ensures that our timber is fully protected against decay, moisture, and insect attacks, extending its lifespan significantly.

Our high-pressure treatment is available in green or brown and meets the BS8417 standard for preservative treatment, ensuring durability in even the harshest outdoor conditions. This means you can rely on our treated timber products for use in fencing, landscaping, and structural applications with confidence.

5. Convenient Online Shopping and Reliable Delivery

Brookridge Timber recognises the need for convenience in today’s fast-paced world. That’s why we offer online shopping for all our timber and timber products. You can browse our extensive selection, place your order, and arrange delivery from the comfort of your home or office. This online availability is particularly beneficial for busy tradespeople who need quick access to quality materials without the hassle of visiting a physical store.

For customers across Devon, Somerset, and the South West, our delivery service ensures that products arrive promptly and in excellent condition. Whether it’s a single order or a bulk delivery, we make sure that your timber products get to you when and where you need them. For larger orders, we can even provide crane-offload delivery, making it easier to manage and unload heavy materials on site.

6. Special Offers and Promotions

We love to show appreciation for our loyal customers with special offers and promotions. From seasonal discounts to exclusive in-store promotions at our Dunball branch, we make sure our customers get the best value. Recently, for example, we have run promotions on our equestrian products and timber shavings, allowing our customers to stock up for the colder months at fantastic prices.

By offering competitive prices and regular promotions, Brookridge Timber helps local tradespeople, homeowners, and agricultural businesses save money on essential timber products.

7. Community-Focused and Locally Supportive

As a Devon-based timber trader with branches in Somerset, Brookridge Timber is deeply rooted in the community. We believe in supporting local builders, landscapers, and DIYers by providing them with quality materials right on their doorstep. By choosing to work with a local timber supplier, you’re also supporting the local economy, creating jobs, and helping to sustain small businesses that are vital to the community.

Our commitment to the South West goes beyond business. We regularly collaborate with local councils, government bodies, and community organisations, supplying timber products to support community projects and public works. Our longstanding partnerships with the Environment Agency and The Wetlands Trust reflect our dedication to environmental stewardship and local development.

8. Custom and Bespoke Orders for Unique Projects

Not every project can be tackled with standard timber products, which is why we offer custom and bespoke timber solutions. Whether you’re working on a unique garden design, need specific timber lengths for a construction project, or are looking for special profiles and treatments, Brookridge Timber can accommodate custom orders.

Our in-house sawing and machining facilities allow us to produce timber to meet specific dimensions and requirements, making us a flexible and responsive partner for even the most unique timber projects.

9. Quality Assurance and Long-Lasting Products

At Brookridge Timber, quality is our top priority. From sourcing to processing, each step is carefully managed to ensure that the timber products we supply meet the highest standards. Our timber is not only sustainably sourced but also visually and machine graded to comply with EN14081 and BS4978 standards.

Our commitment to quality means that our timber products perform reliably over time, saving customers from the hassle of repairs and replacements. Whether it’s for timber decking, fencing, or structural applications, choosing Brookridge Timber ensures that you’re investing in materials that will stand the test of time.

10. Broad Range of Products Beyond Timber

Although timber is at the core of what we do, we also supply a range of other materials to meet the needs of our customers. In addition to timber, Brookridge Timber stocks sheet materials such as MDF, OSB, and plywood, equestrian products like bales of shavings, and fencing supplies including panels, posts, and rails. This variety makes us a convenient one-stop shop for customers looking to complete entire projects without the need to source materials from multiple suppliers.
