Uses of timber posts

Our timber posts and other timber options are a highly versatile tool to fulfill a variety of DIY projects and niches for your garden. Here are just a few of their potential uses:

Fencing

Our timber posts go hand in hand as sturdy solutions for fencing and fence posts. Ensure the posts are of adequate length and thickness for your fence height and soil conditions, providing stability and strength. Additionally, consider the installation method, whether you'll be setting the posts in concrete or using metal spikes, to ensure a secure and long-lasting fence.

Raised Garden Beds

If you're looking to add a bit of structure to your garden plants, then our timber posts are a great tool to construct your very own raised beds. These are a great garden project to get into for better sunlight and water retention for your produce.

Pergolas

Constructing pergolas with timber posts creates shaded areas and adds a stylish feature to any garden. Using a bit of DIY skill, you can erect a fantastic pergola space.

Timber fence posts

factor in the aesthetic appeal, selecting posts that complement the overall look of your fence and property.

• Pointed: For easier entry when constructed, you can select a timber post with a pointed end

• Rounded: You can also choose a rounded timber post design for a more tidy and elegant timber style. This type is good for constructing playgrounds as well.

• Treated Posts: We have a selection of treated, impregnated and coated timber posts for a more efficient, hassle-free building experience.

Addressing your Concerns

As with all timber products, there are certain problems you may come across or have concerns about. Here are some common concerns as well as their solutions:

• Colour variation and discolouration between the posts and fencing: As a natural product, our wooden fence posts will not look identical. Any discolouration may come due to sun exposure. This is why occasional treatment, even though they are pressure-treated, is advisable.

• Keeping my fence posts steady, even and level: If placed in a looser ground surface, fence posts may not be as steady and level. Reinforcement such as concrete or a post holder may be needed. Make sure to double measure your fencing project prior to installation.

• Mold and rot forming on my timber posts and fencing: The pressure-treated timber in our fence posts are less susceptible to mold and rot than standard timber. It is important to inspect your garden fencing semi-regularly for signs of wear.

• Warping of a timber post: An even and stable installation will ensure warping, which is a natural occurrence, is kept to a minimum. The pressure treated timber fence posts are also denser so less likely to warp.

Debunking Myths and Misunderstandings

There a several misconceptions associated with timber posts. Let's go through and debunk them:

• All types of timber are basically the same/do the same thing: Timber of all types share some similarities, but many are better suited for different purposes. Larch for example is easy to use for DIY construction, where as Pine is more lightweight and decorative.

• Pressure treated timber doesn’t need any maintenance: Whilst pressure treated timber has the added benefit of not needing treatment at the start, maintenance later down the line is essential for its longevity.

• Timber posts can’t handle heavy loads: Timber as a resource lends itself well to many load-bearing duties, including foundations for garden buildings as well as support posts.

• Timber posts are unsustainable: This is far from the case, as not only do we source sustainable and traceable timber, but it is designed to last for many years.
