Wholesale wood & timber supply

Timber, wood products and sheet materials for UK trade customers

Wholesale wood and timber supply depends on product specification, intended use, quantity, size, finish, treatment requirements, supplier availability, lead times, technical documentation, delivery requirements, and agreed order terms.

  • Timber
  • Wood products
  • Sheet materials
  • Joinery-related
  • Refurbishment timber

Timber grades, treatments and certifications are quoted as supplied by the customer or the originating supplier. CoreWood Solutions Ltd makes no independent certification claims.

Product categories

What a timber enquiry can cover

Timber requirements vary considerably between projects. Section sizes, lengths, grades, treatment requirements, finishes and quantities all change what can realistically be sourced, at what lead time, and from which supplier.

Timber

Sawn and prepared timber sections quoted against the product type, section size, length, quantity and any treatment requirement supplied with the enquiry.

  • Section sizes and lengths
  • Quantities and pack formats
  • Treatment requirements where specified

Wood products

Wood-based products used across construction, refurbishment and maintenance work, matched to the written description and dimensions provided.

  • Product description matching
  • Dimensional requirements
  • Finish requirements where stated

Sheet materials

Board and sheet products reviewed by type, thickness, board size, finish, edge requirement and pack quantity.

  • Thickness and board size
  • Finish and edge requirements
  • Pack quantities and handling

Joinery-related materials

Materials supporting joinery and second-fix work, sourced against written specifications, profiles and required finishes.

  • Profile and finish detail
  • Consistency across repeat items
  • Alternatives where unavailable

Refurbishment timber

Timber and wood products for refurbishment, repair and planned maintenance programmes, including phased and recurring requirements.

  • Like-for-like replacement detail
  • Phased quantities
  • Repeat supply consistency

Structural and general building use

Where timber is intended for structural or load-bearing use, grading, certification and design requirements must be confirmed by your appointed specialists before supply is agreed.

  • Grade requirement confirmed by you
  • Specialist review encouraged
  • No structural sign-off provided

Specification detail

The detail that shapes an accurate timber quotation

Sharing this information up front reduces revisions, avoids substitutions arriving unannounced, and produces a lead-time indication that means something.

Sizes, sections and quantities

Section sizes, lengths, board dimensions and quantities drive both price and availability. Where a requirement can be met by a different but comparable section, that option is presented alongside the specified one so you can decide.

Grades and specifications

Grades and specifications are quoted as supplied by the customer. CoreWood Solutions Ltd does not assign, certify or upgrade a timber grade, and does not make certification claims on behalf of any product, mill or supplier.

Product treatment considerations

Where treatment is relevant to the intended use, the requirement should be stated in the enquiry. Treatment types, retention levels, service class expectations and suitability for the application should be confirmed with appropriately qualified specialists.

Moisture considerations

Moisture content, storage conditions, acclimatisation and handling can all affect timber on site. These considerations are raised where relevant, but site storage and protection remain the customer’s responsibility.

Supplier documentation

Where the project requires documentation, tell us which documents are needed. Documentation is issued by the originating manufacturer, mill or supplier under their own terms; CoreWood Solutions Ltd passes it through rather than authoring or certifying it.

Delivery coordination

Long lengths, heavy packs and bulky sheet materials all affect vehicle suitability, offloading and site access. Delivery arrangements are reviewed against those constraints before anything is booked.

Intended use

Why intended use is recorded on every timber enquiry

Timber behaves differently depending on where it sits, what it carries, and what it is exposed to. Recording intended use makes it possible to flag where specialist input is needed before an order is placed.

  • Structural or load-bearing use. Grading, design values, connection detailing and compliance must be confirmed by your structural engineer or appointed specialist.
  • External or exposed use. Treatment, service class expectations and moisture exposure should be reviewed against the manufacturer’s or supplier’s guidance.
  • Fire performance requirements. Any fire performance expectation must be specified by the customer and verified with appropriately qualified specialists.
  • Visual and finish-critical use. Appearance expectations should be stated, since comparable sections can differ visually between suppliers.
