More Than Timber: Our Roots in the Trade

We’ve been serving tradespeople, contractors and local DIYers across Scunthorpe and beyond since 2007, but our roots go back much further. As a family-run business with over 30 years of industry experience, we know what matters: dependable advice, fair pricing, and materials that won’t let you down.

What began as a small, family-run timber yard has grown into a trusted local supplier for builders and homeowners alike. We’ve added more products, built a bigger team, and expanded our services, but we’ve never lost the down-to-earth, hands-on approach that made us a go-to for local trades in the first place.

Our Mission and Values

Mission: To make quality timber and building materials accessible to everyone, from first-time DIYers to professional tradespeople.
Vision: To be the region’s go-to supplier for fast, reliable, and honest service.
Values: Community support, expert advice, honest pricing, and a job done right the first time.
