Decking Timber in Grafton

  • Green, rough sawn timber
  • Dimensions discussed for each project
  • Clear finish and moisture information

Planning Timber for Outdoor Decks

A deck's boards need to suit their intended position, design and finish. At Tableland Timbers Pty Ltd, we take decking timber enquiries from Grafton customers looking for a hardwood supply option and clear information about the material. We supply rough sawn, green timber, which is different from pre-dried or dressed decking sold ready for a particular finish.

Start with the dimensions in your plans and tell us whether the boards will form part of a new deck or a repair. It also helps to know what additional milling or finishing the project allows for. Our custom timber milling service is worth exploring when a cutting list calls for specific sections.

Call (02) 6644 4112 to discuss decking timber dimensions and the kind of material your project calls for.

FAQ's

Green timber retains more of its original moisture content than seasoned timber. The moisture condition can affect movement, fixing decisions and how boards are prepared for use.

Rough sawn material retains its saw-cut surface rather than a dressed finish. A project that requires smooth boards may need further machining and finishing.

Record the specified board width, thickness, length and quantity. It also helps to identify any layout constraints that affect the cutting list.

Decking Details Worth Considering

The right starting point is a clear understanding of the board specification and where it will be installed.

  • Board dimensions. Width, thickness and length affect the layout and fixing requirements. Check the sizes against your plan before requesting a quote.
  • Surface finish. Rough sawn boards have not been dressed smooth. Decide what surface preparation and finishing will be needed for the intended deck.
  • Timber moisture. Green hardwood has different handling and movement considerations from seasoned boards. Your design and installation approach should account for that distinction.
  • Outdoor exposure. Decking encounters weather, moisture and regular use. Confirm that the selected material, finish and construction details are appropriate for the site.
