Around the home you will see lots of places where wood is being used. Wood is an ideal material for construction due to its relatively low cost, it is light but strong and with a little skill can be used to enhance your home.

All homes contain some degree of wood, most homes use a wood structure called rafters to support the roof, often the floor is made from wood and supported on wooden joists, internal are supprted by wooden frameswork.

Wooden floors are warmer than concrete and provide a void to run electrical and plumbing services. There is a large amount of wood used within a home such as doors, shelving, skirting boards and furniture.

Some of the major jobs such as repairing or replacing roofing supports or fitting new floor joists are better left to the professionals, but there are many jobs that can be tackled yourself.

Fortunately wood is an easy material to work with and providing you take the time to develop a few basic, woodworking skills, a wide variety of tasks can be performed.
