This Snowdon Timber CLS Timber is designed for DIY enthusiasts and builders working on decking and garden structures. Its primary benefit is providing a strong, durable, and rot-resistant foundation for outdoor projects. A key consideration is that it comes untreated and unpainted, requiring appropriate finishing for aesthetic and further protection. The product offers a smooth-planed softwood joist, pressure-treated for longevity against decay and insects, with a C16 strength rating for reliable structural support.

No, this timber is supplied as raw, treated softwood and is not pre-painted or finished. You will need to apply your desired paint, stain, or sealant.
C16 is a structural grading that indicates the timber's strength and stiffness. It is suitable for general construction purposes, including load-bearing applications like decking joists.
The pressure treatment is designed to protect against rot and insect attack for many years, especially when the timber is not in constant immersion in water and is properly maintained with a suitable finish.
While possible, this timber is specifically treated and intended for outdoor use. For indoor projects, standard untreated CLS timber may be more appropriate and cost-effective, depending on the application.
Use corrosion-resistant screws or nails designed for treated timber. For structural joints, consider using appropriate metal connectors like joist hangers or angle brackets for added security.
The treatment used is designed to be effective and safe for its intended use. Disposal should follow local regulations. Avoid burning treated timber.
This timber is pressure-treated to resist rot and insect damage, making it suitable for outdoor use where it will be exposed to the elements. Untreated timber is generally for interior applications and would quickly decay if used outdoors.
This can occur if stored in damp conditions. Clean with a stiff brush and a mild detergent solution. Ensure adequate ventilation and allow to dry thoroughly before use. Apply a suitable finish.
Ensure you are using sharp woodworking tools appropriate for cutting softwood. Make sure the timber is securely clamped before cutting.
Ensure the timber surface is clean, dry, and free from dust before applying any finish. Sand lightly if necessary. Apply finishes in thin, even coats according to product instructions.
Ensure timber is stored flat on a level surface, ideally off the ground, and is not exposed to prolonged direct sunlight or excessive moisture. If warping is minor, it may be possible to straighten during installation with secure fixings.
Setup: Cut the timber to your required dimensions using standard woodworking saws. Fixings such as screws or nails designed for treated timber should be used. Ensure all cut ends are properly sealed with an appropriate wood preservative to maintain the treatment's integrity. When used as decking joists, ensure adequate spacing between them (typically 400mm-600mm centers, depending on decking board thickness and load requirements) and secure them to supporting structures with appropriate joist hangers or brackets.
Compatibility: This timber is compatible with standard woodworking tools and fixings. It can be combined with other treated softwood or construction-grade timber. Ensure fixings are corrosion-resistant (e.g., galvanized or stainless steel) as they will be exposed to outdoor elements.
Care: While pressure-treated, it is recommended to apply a suitable wood stain, sealant, or paint to the timber for aesthetic purposes and additional protection against UV rays and surface moisture. Regularly inspect the timber for any signs of wear or damage. Keep the area around the timber clear of debris and vegetation to allow for air circulation and prevent moisture build-up. Store any unused timber flat in a dry, well-ventilated area, off the ground, to prevent warping.
