A Good Customer of Southern Timber - John Pook from DDE Electrical Engineering came to Aaron Millman from Southern Timber wanting to winterproof a log cabin he had back at home. Aaron went up to have a look at the best options for cladding the cabin. It was then later agreed that some douglas fir waney edge would be most cost effective and look amazing with the area where it was located.
John then placed his order with Southern Timber and within a few weeks it had arrived. Over the course of 5 weekends total John, Aaron and other friends completed the cladding on the cabin. The cabin is much warmer and looks fantastic thanks to the materials and expert help / advice from Southern Timber.
Here at Southern Timber, we are able to supply a vast species of timber in Decking, Cladding and even fencing applications via special order.

Here at Southern Timber we have always enjoyed supporting local talent where possible and so when the opportunity come up for us to get involved with the LegsUpForTalent campaign we were honoured.

Macmillan Coffee Morning on Friday 30th September 2022
Having a Coffee Morning is the perfect chance to catch up over a cuppa and a slice of something delicious for a great cause. One in two of us will face cancer, and the money you help us raise at our Coffee Morning will help people with cancer to live life as fully as they can.
Our colleagues make platefuls of delicious cakes and biscuits topped up with a few savoury treats as well. You can wash your snack down with a cup of tea or coffee as well. We run our Macmillan fundraiser event for as long as we are open on the Friday, that means you will have chance to share something with us from 7.30am onwards.
