It is important to note that all species, sizes and thickness of timber are different in pricing. Additional information about timber slabs

Why is the cost so different??? Wood that is usually up to 250-400mm wide and 20-35mm thick can be sold at a cheaper rate then wood over 500mm wide and 40 plus mm thick. Single slabs can be expensive and larger sizes due to a number of reasons. It is strongly recommended that if one wishes to achieve such desires with a limited budget, purchasing two slabs and milling / joining them together would be a fair cheaper option. Timber is a natural product;

Timber does have a tendency to move ever so slightly over time. Timber was once a living thing therefore will react to a number of elements and factors. SKD strongly advises that timber that is purchased for outdoor use is to be well looked after, recoated with oils / sealers at least ever 6-12 months. Failure to do this will result in aging of the timber and other defects. If possible cover your outdoor furniture with a furniture cover to keep water from pooling on the surfaces. If you are after a true and dead flat surface, timber may not be for you. Our products are dry and ready for installation. Staff have a moisture meter on hand and are happy to explain why you do not install green (freshly cut timber). Free local delivery is available (subject to terms and conditions).

Another great example of tree to table. We took the log, milled it , dried it correctly and built a beautiful custom piece for our client.
All solid timber in this construction. Big thanks to Bailey benn for helping with the build.
