Oak sawn finish plinth

These cubes arrive to us fresh sawn, but will have partially seasoned before being despatched. The timber will continue to dry over time according to its end environment, possibly resulting in some shaking and cracking, but this will only add character. As with all timbers, the cube will silver down through exposure to sunlight. Please note if using these cubes internally they will be more prone to splitting. Our cubes are a natural product that are stored outside in order to assist the seasoning process. As such, they may be weathered and partially silvered down. For an additional fee, we can restore the cube through sanding and oiling. This will also help delay the silvering process, although it can never be stopped completely.

Oak is a dense & durable slow grown hardwood.

Our oak boards can vary in colour from a very light brown through to a medium honey, giving a light, natural appearing deck that will blend sympathetically with most surroundings.

All exterior Oak will develop surface splits, shakes and cracks over time – this is a natural occurrence and these can even close back up again with the changing seasons.

Our Oak is a mixture of Rustic to Prime grade, allowing for cat paw, small, medium and large knots.

Some boards may contain sap and surface splits however this is structurally sound and within grade.

Board Lengths: whilst stock levels vary, our oak boards are generally available in lengths of 3m and 3.5m. Please contact us with any specific requirements you may have.

Our oak boards are planed smooth with eased long edges on both sides.

Comes unfinished and ready for oil if desired.

Any boards that are cut, should have a bees wax or end grain sealer applied to the freshly trimmed ends.

To ensure a firm hold, stainless steel decking screws should be used to install oak decking.
