Description

Our Treated Softwood Battens are a versatile and cost-effective solution for a wide range of construction and landscaping applications. Ideal for use in roofing, fencing, cladding support, and general framing, these battens are UC3 pressure treated to resist rot, fungal decay, and insect attack—making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

Each batten is precision sawn for consistent sizing and ease of installation. The treatment process ensures long-lasting performance, especially in environments exposed to moisture. Whether you’re building a garden structure, securing fence panels, or installing cladding, these battens provide reliable support.

Installation Tips:

  • For outdoor use, ensure battens are not in direct ground contact unless UC4 treated.
  • Use corrosion-resistant fixings for longevity.
  • Store in a dry, well-ventilated area before installation.

    Buy from Charltons the true timber merchant
    did what I asked

  2. Ash –

    Good quality, slightly undersized (20mm not 25mm). No warps.

  3. Stuart (verified owner) –

    Good value for money, was able to choose my own pieces.

  4. TC (verified owner) –

    Great service again. Easy to order online, quality products, very competitive prices & excellent delivery options. What more could you want? Highly recommended.

  5. Roger (verified owner) –

    Easy on-line order, phoned before delivery. Delivered as promised into my drive. That’s why they’re my normal go-to for gardening project timber.

  6. Liam (verified owner) –

    Had a load of timber delivered. Was worried I ran the risk of having some of the less desirable bits as I wasn’t there to choose but all timber was in great shape, posts and 2×2 were dead true. Really good quality and very happy with the service I received!

  7. PR (verified owner) –

    Great timber supplier – significantly cheaper that typical DIY chains. Helpful, friendly staff. Easy, drive through pickup. Only downside that some timber sizes are only available in long (4.8m) lengths – although they can provide a hand saw to cut the length down.

  8. Luke (verified owner) –

    Good quality and price. Delivery was quick with 1p selection option and all materials where of good quality and condition

  9. C Uphill (verified owner) –

    Always a brilliant local service. Thanks so much.

  10. Jon (verified owner) –

    Great service. Driver went out of his way to deliver the goods according to delivery instructions which could have been challenging. All delivered efficiently and effectively.

  11. Roger (verified owner) –

    Up there with the very best.
    Easily accessible with good parking and yard is well sign posted for collections etc. Large showroom packed with great stuff, well displayed. Carrying a wide variety of timber and associated products, with a good website which gives prices etc (unlike some) which makes ordering a breeze. Very reasonable delivery rates, as cheap as 1p (£0.01) if you’re not in a hurry and meet the criteria.
    The staff are brilliant, very friendly and helpful even to a DIYer like me who only visits occasionally. Easy recommendation.

  12. Roger (verified owner) –

    Good quality.
    Great service easy to order on line, had phone call the day before to check delivery for the following day.
    Excellent 5 stars for the driver that we missed very early morning, as out walking dog, my timber neatly stacked against my wall.
    Good reliable friendly company.
    Good quality products could not fault.
