Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is raw timber?

Raw timber is unfinished hardwood that has been milled and prepared but not coated, stained, or sealed. This gives you the flexibility to apply your own finish to suit your interior design preferences.

Why choose raw timber over pre-finished timber?

Raw timber offers complete creative freedom. You can customise the colour, sheen, and texture during on-site finishing. It’s ideal for matching new floors to existing ones or creating a completely bespoke look.

Is raw timber suitable for flooring?

Yes, raw timber is commonly used for high-end solid timber flooring. It’s especially popular in heritage restorations and luxury custom homes where a specific finish is required.

Do I need to seal raw timber?

Yes. Raw timber must be sanded, stained (if desired), and sealed with an appropriate protective coating after installation. This ensures long-term durability and protection from moisture and wear.

Can I use raw timber for stairs or wall cladding?

Absolutely. Raw timber is perfect for stair treads, wall cladding, and other architectural applications. It allows for consistent grain and finish across surfaces.

Is raw timber environmentally sustainable?

All our timber is sourced from PEFC- or FSC-certified suppliers, ensuring responsible forestry and sustainability.
