What ever your strategy – Re-Think, Re-Use, Re- Purpose or Recycle
We call it Re-Timber
- Are you about to salvage timber from a renovation or alterations and additions and re-use it?
- Want to purchase 2nd hand timber or a repurposed hardwood beam and re-use it?
- Are you a builder about to use a piece of timber that has been lying around?
- Has council, engineer, building surveyor or certifier asked is that timber “fit for purpose”
Our question “How do you know?”
We solve this problem by coming to you and grading the timber (in-situ, stored on site, factory or shop) to Australian Standards including the proposed FWPA Standard G01 Recycled Timber for you providing structural or visual grade certification that the timber can be re-used and is “fit for purpose”.
Piece of mind for you, engineer, certifier, home owner!
There is a value (sentimental, environmental or monetary) of the structural timber hidden in the walls or roof space of existing buildings. Makes sense!
So if your goal is to re-use timber, reduce the carbon footprint or let the timber tell its story of service, it makes sense to re-purpose (salvage) it. Our solution Re-Timber!
Out risk reducing cost competitive service reduces demand for new resources and keeps materials in circulation longer.
We consider & provide;
- Timber history, location, usage, previous loading, damage & decay
- Original construction methods/fixings
- Damage during the demolition phase
