Timber Treatments

With a combination of temperature climate and our traditional building methods, the housing stock in the United Kingdom suffers some of the highest levels of risk from insect and fungal attack to structural timbers. It is considered 'good practise' in building design to pre-treat timber with preservatives as a lifetime precaution against Dry Rot or Woodworm.

Unfortunately, most traditional buildings, and many new buildings also, do not have the benefit of such protection and this, combined with poor maintenance, leads to many cases of timber decay being identified during housing surveys.

Our range of Timber Treatments include some of the highest quality treatments in the UK market. Water based timber preservatives such as the Platinum and Microtech  range have proven to be top sellers in the remedial market and Wykabor and ProBor products which use inorganic borates for low intervention treatments.
