As a lower-cost alternative to solid timber, plywood especially has gained popularity in recent years and is even used for high end designs as well as flooring, home roofing, sheathing, and everything else from skateboards to doghouses. The grain in the top layers of plywood mean that it’s stainable and still looks like wood, while the multiple layers of veneer mean that it is extremely strong. It comes with both softwood and hardwood options, so you can choose according to your needs and budget.

Our carcassing products, which are sourced from trusted manufacturers, are suitable for an array of structural projects. For example, our Regularised Carcassing timber has been processed to be used for floor joists, studwork and roofing, amongst other projects.

Since this type of timber has been kiln dried so that it has a specific moisture content, it will be stronger and more stable. As it is regularised, the focus is on the size rather than the smoothness of the finish, so you may notice some slight roughness. However, whatever the application, you can be sure that each piece will have a consistent size. As a result, it is neater and more visually pleasing.

The grading (C24) is most commonly used for floor and roof joists and stands as an assessment of structural strength. According to important building regulations, timber must be graded as such if it is going to be used in interior structural applications.

Apex roofs have a central ridge that slopes on either side. (Apex sheds are different from Pent Garden Sheds, which feature a single rear sloping roof.) The high roofline is ideal for storage; longer and taller items will fit easily into these sheds, and there is additional headroom. The sloping Apex roof guides rainwater to the ground on either side of the central ridge, which prevents it from gathering in puddles at the top.

Apex Garden sheds have a classic, symmetrical design and its traditional look appeals to many homeowners. Lawsons uses thicker than average timber for sturdy, solid garden buildings that last for decades.
