Billinghay Sawmill

When the trees reach maturity they are marked, felled and branches stripped ready for transportation. The wood is then 'rough sawn' into planks and is then left to air dry for 9-12 months. Because timber is a natural product it will expand and contract in variations of relative humidity, so for us to be able to supply you with a suitable product that will not warp and twist when laid on the floor of a modern heated home we need to accurately reduce the moisture content to a set level.

To set the moisture content to an accurate standard we take the air dried wood and stabilise the wood in our own drying kilns. This gives us the ability to control exactly how much moisture there is in the wood and this is what allows us to offer such a durable product that will last and keep looking good for a lifetime. When the wood has reached the correct moisture level it is machined and shrink wrapped.

We also stock and supply internal oak doors, skirtings, architrave, worktops and various mouldings to cover most joinery work within the house. The floor boards we manufacture can also be V grooved to produce a wall board which gives an attractive different look to a modern house.
