"Good price, good customer service, nice people. The only thing I'd say is that the post cut is a little wonky at the top, but still good for the price."

Green Oak

Fresh Sawn or Green Oak refers to timber cut fresh from a log and ranges in colour from pink to pale honey, weathering to grey.  It is renewable, as a frame can last for over 100years, the same time it takes to grow with careful management in such schemes as FSC or PEFC. The carbon footprint is also less than standard building materials. We can cut sizes up to 300mm square and 6m long.  Larger beams are available to order in shorter lengths. Green oak can have some blue staining which is caused by a reaction between the tanin in the oak and metal. This easily cleans off once dry on the surface by either sanding or oxalic acid.

Extending the life

One of the main reasons for posts to rot is a constant wetting and drying of a post. If a post sits in a pool of water and then drys and this is repeated it effects the moisture in the cells causing the post to rot. One of the best ways to extend the life is to slope the soil or concrete so that water doesn't gather at the base of the post. Sealing the post with an oil at the level it goes in the ground also helps extend the life as it reduces the moisture absorption into the cells.
