Should I Have a Timber Garage?

So, you’ve finally decided to go ahead and build a wooden garage, but how much can you really expect from your investment? The key to building a good quality wooden garage is the quality of timber you use, and in the case of wooden garages this will determine how long your garage will last.  The most important thing you can do when building a wooden garage is to make sure that the timber used is of a good quality.

One of the problems people have is not knowing where to get good quality timber from. Luckily there are quite a few good wood suppliers out there. So, the question becomes, what should I look for when buying a timber garage? The first thing that you should do is take a look at the quality of the timber. This means checking that the timber is strong enough to hold up to the weight that the garage will need to carry, while still being flexible enough that you won’t have any buckling or sagging. If the timber you use is weak, or the nails aren’t strong enough, you’ll soon find that the timber can easily be snapped by the weights that are put on the garage.

Another important thing is that you want to make sure that the timber you’re using is easy to install. The stronger the wood is, the easier it will be to install and repair it when necessary, and so if the garage is going to be used regularly then you want to choose a material that will last a very long time before requiring repairs.
