Description

CEDAR GRAVEL BOARD 140mm x 18mm

Gravel boards are perfect for use within sloping or stepped garden. These Cedar wide gravel boards look stunning they have wonderful colour and grain. They are very useful to have on hand when fitting a fence in a garden that is not perfectly level. You can use them as needed to deal with height changes and differences in level. Slatted fencing needs to be fitted as level as possible, the horizontal battens should run level, by using gravel boards at the bottom you are able to create a level base to fit your panels to.

These Cedar boards are also often used for facia on garden buildings or can be simply used as a cladding. They are not just gravel boards, so if you need a wide Cedar board these could work for you.

COLOUR VARIATION

The natural colour variation of our Western Red Cedar battens are simply stunning. Colours vary form light honey tones through soft reds to dark browns. Within this range of colours there are also two and three tone swirling patterns of natural grain. The effect of this naturally occurring colour variation when used within a garden scheme is second to none. These unique characteristics separate Cedar from all other types of timber and set it as the favourite choice for garden designers and architects for use within contemporary schemes.

NATURAL WOOD PRESERVATIVE

Cedar has a natural preservative oil within it that eliminates the need for further chemical treatments it acts as natural preservative to help the wood resist rot and decay. This makes it the perfect material to construct quality fencing. Many people prefer to allow their cedar fencing to “naturally age” outdoors without any finish at all. Over time the colour will weather to a handsome silver-grey highlighted by darker streaks, and the grain of the wood will become slightly raised.

STABILITY AND STAIN TREATMENT

Some clients prefer to maintain the look of the warm colours of Cedar and opt to have the fencing panels treated. We recommend Textrol HES – UV protection oil to protect and enhance the colour of your Cedar. Textrol HES is available to buy in our online shop. This enhances the natural colours of the Cedar panels and keeps them looking fresh as the day they were installed. Normally this stain would need to be refreshed every two to three years to keep the panels looking their best.

GRADING AND QUALITY

Our Cedar Battens and boards are machined in house. We take care to ensure that the Cedar we produce is consistent and high quality.
All the work we do far exceeds most nationally accepted standards. When machining natural products there are always variations that occur but these will always fall within the accepted quality controls.

Delivered trellis in the requested week to arrive at the same time as the other fence materials. Great quality trellis (Siberian slatted), it slots nicely into the fence posts and makes lights behind look delicate, like everyone has nicely tilted privacy shutters. We fitted it on a Jackson's horizontal tongue and groove with the wooden posts and capping rail, which made it look like everything fit together as one piece. Well worth framing with a capping rail if you're fitting trellis, it made a huge difference when the rails went on. Thanks to the team, it's exactly what we wanted and zero hassle.

I don't often write reviews, but if it helps anyone else looking for the same thing I should say that I am impressed with the bespoke cedar panels and capping they have supplied. They were cheaper and quicker than the other suppliers I contacted - so I was a little unsure of what I would get, but they are well-made, the dimensions are accurate, and ordering and delivery have been straightforward.
