With the recession hitting us hard, everything is becoming more and more expensive and more difficult to afford. Not only are trade prices rising on tools, but also on the raw materials. This means that if you are a tradesman or looking for material within the private sector, everything is becoming more and more expensive.

Here at Booker-Timber, we appreciate that low-cost materials are hard to come by. That is why we work on the principle of saving costs. Our CNC routing and cutting technology ensures that minimal amounts of wood are lost to off cuts, effectively giving us more material to work with. All of our materials are bought from quality assured businesses, therefore giving you, our customer, a quality and cost effective product.

Cut to size MDF or chipboards are perfect for both the trade and private industries. A versatile material, strong and easy to use, MDF sheets can be used in many ways. They are perfect for most DIY jobs around the house, for instance using cut to size MDF when insulating up in the rafters.

Many plywood like materials can also be very handy for creating cheap shelving or cupboard solutions. Due to their strong and durable nature, these types of boards are best used in places like the utility room, or the garage. However, if you are confident at getting a quality finish on the product, you can easily make a good looking piece of furniture out of MDF. After all, most flat-pack furniture is some type of man-made wood.
