PSE Timber

What Makes Our PSE Timber Different?

PSE timber represents the highest standard in machined timber, where raw sawn timber undergoes precision planing on all four faces to create perfectly square edges and smooth surfaces. Our redwood PSE timber collection features kiln-dried Scandinavian pine, carefully selected and processed to meet British Standard BS EN 14081-1, ensuring consistent quality across every dimension.

Unlike rough sawn timber, PSE timber eliminates the guesswork. Each piece delivers exact dimensions, smooth finishes, and straight edges that translate directly into professional results. Whether you're creating bespoke joinery or structural framework, our PSE timber provides the reliability that experienced tradespeople and ambitious DIYers demand.

Comprehensive Size Range for Every Application

Our PSE timber collection spans from compact 25x50mm sections ideal for batten work and light framing, through to substantial 100x100mm posts perfect for heavy-duty structural applications. Popular sizes include:

Light Framework: 25mm thickness options from 50mm to 225mm widths provide excellent versatility for internal stud work, ceiling battens, and decorative applications.

Medium Applications: 38mm and 50mm thickness ranges offer increased strength for floor joists, roof construction, and general carpentry where structural integrity matters.

Heavy-Duty Solutions: Our 75x75mm and 100x100mm sections deliver the strength needed for fence posts, structural supports, and demanding construction applications.

Why Choose Redwood PSE Timber?

Redwood pine stands as Britain's preferred choice for PSE timber, offering exceptional value through its natural characteristics. The species provides excellent workability, taking screws and nails cleanly without splitting, while its natural resin content offers inherent resistance to moisture and decay.

Each piece undergoes careful kiln drying to achieve moisture content below 20%, preventing warping and ensuring dimensional stability throughout your project's lifetime. This controlled drying process, combined with precision planing, creates timber that machines beautifully and finishes to professional standards.

Applications That Demand PSE Quality

Professional joiners specify PSE timber where visible quality matters. Kitchen installations, built-in wardrobes, and custom shelving all benefit from PSE timber's smooth surface and exact dimensions. The material's consistent sizing eliminates time-consuming preparation, allowing direct assembly and finishing.

In structural applications, PSE timber's dimensional accuracy ensures proper bearing and connection details. Floor joists achieve consistent levels, while stud walls maintain true vertical alignment—critical factors in professional construction standards.
