Questions about protecting your timber?

We work on residential homes, apartment buildings, schools, commercial properties and public buildings, tailoring the treatment or restoration approach to the requirements of each project.

Yes. In many cases, existing timber cladding can be professionally treated or restored. Its condition, existing finish and the type of protection required will determine the most appropriate approach. We’ll assess this during our initial survey.

Not always. Access requirements depend on the size and layout of your building. Where required, we can arrange suitable access equipment or scaffolding as part of the project planning.

Fire protection systems are specialist coatings designed to help slow the spread of flames on exterior timber. They provide additional time in the event of a fire while helping maintain the natural appearance of the timber.

Most systems are designed to provide a clear or near-invisible finish, helping preserve the natural beauty of the timber while improving its fire performance.

The lifespan of the treatment depends on the timber species, the fire protection system used and the building’s exposure to the elements. We’ll recommend the most suitable solution and provide guidance on future maintenance.

Absolutely. Many projects benefit from combining fire protection with UV and weather protection, helping improve both safety and the long-term appearance of the timber.

UV protection uses specialist exterior treatments designed to help protect timber from sunlight and weathering, reducing fading, greying and deterioration over time.

Exposure to sunlight, moisture and changing weather conditions naturally affects exterior timber. Without suitable protection, its original colour can fade and gradually turn grey.

Yes. In many cases, weathered timber can first be professionally cleaned and restored before a UV protection system is applied. We’ll assess its condition during our initial survey.

Our systems are selected to complement the natural appearance of timber. We’ll recommend the most suitable treatment depending on the timber species, existing condition and finish you want to achieve.

This depends on the timber species, treatment system, orientation of the building and level of exposure to sunlight and weather. We’ll advise on the appropriate maintenance programme for your property.

Yes. In many cases, weathered and grey timber can be professionally cleaned, restored and protected without needing complete replacement. We’ll assess its condition first.

Not necessarily. Individual damaged areas can often be repaired or replaced while retaining timber that remains in good condition.

Professional cleaning and restoration can often significantly improve grey or weathered timber and bring back much of its natural colour and character.

We work with a wide range of exterior timber species and cladding systems. We’ll identify the timber and its condition before recommending the appropriate approach.

This depends on the timber, its condition, exposure and the protective system used. Appropriate ongoing maintenance will help preserve the restored finish for longer.

Yes. Once restored, we can recommend suitable UV and weather protection to help preserve its appearance and reduce future deterioration.
