Finishes on Timbers and Logs

Planed and oiled

The usual choice. A smooth finish that enhances the natural grain of the wood.

A coloured stain may be added, such as the cherry stain we used in this home.

We use Sansin European environmentally-friendly water-based stain which is available in broad palette of colours.

Rough sawn

This might be the choice for a timber frame barn or an outdoor pavillion using our instant-aging Lifetime Crystals (see our fence for the colour this treatment achieves).
