Seasoning and appearance

Air drying reduces moisture over time. Seasoning varies with the section and stock, so include any moisture requirements alongside the appearance you need.

  • Exposed internal beams and ceiling features
  • Restoration and replacement beams
  • Mantels and architectural details

Matching an existing beam

Send photographs, dimensions and any structural requirements. These help us select timber for replacement beams, restoration and matching work.

Common questions

Is air-dried oak completely dry?

Not necessarily. Moisture varies with the section, stock and drying conditions. Tell us if your project requires a specified moisture content.

Can air-dried oak be used structurally?

Yes, when the timber meets the grade and design requirements for the project. Include the specified grade in your enquiry.

Can you help match an existing beam?

Yes. Send photographs and dimensions. We can help with the selection, although natural grain, colour and checking will vary.
