Selecting the Right Treated Timbers for Your Project
To ensure the success of your project, it’s essential to choose the most suitable timber. Here’s what to consider:
1. Environment Exposure
- For outdoor projects or areas prone to moisture, select treated timber to prevent rot and decay.
For indoor use or dry environments, untreated timber is an economical and sufficient choice.

Untreated timber is a budget-friendly option for indoor projects where environmental exposure isn’t a concern.
