Timber supply
Timber selection & delivery
From selecting the right board to delivering a prepared cutting list. Our team helps you specify, source and supply timber for the way it will be used.
Selection and grading
Experienced staff assess colour, grain, structure and natural variation, alongside the practical demands of manufacture. We can also carry out structural grading where required; include your designer’s specified grade in the enquiry.
Stock, stored with care
A broad range of hardwood and softwood stock is kept undercover at Atherstone. Storage, conditioning and careful selection support both repeat supply and larger project requirements.
Machining to your requirements
We plane, size and finish timber to customer specification, including constructional veneers from 2mm thick. Send the finished dimensions and quantities, along with any profile or machining details.
Practical advice
Our Timber Specification Centre gives customers the opportunity to review species and discuss their application. Advice covers movement, durability, machinability and stability, whether you are planning joinery, furniture, boatbuilding, musical instruments or restoration work.
Nationwide delivery
We deliver throughout the UK and can discuss supply further afield. Tell us your delivery postcode, site access and required timing so transport can be planned with the order.
Bespoke sourcing
When a project calls for unusual dimensions, wide boards or heavy sections, we can investigate material beyond standard stock. Our supplier network allows us to discuss selected logs or parcels for larger and more specialised requirements.
Full containers and direct loads
For larger volumes, we arrange imports from overseas sawmills and full-load supply from UK producers. Sykes purchases and invoices the timber directly, coordinating the order and transport without it necessarily passing through our yard.
