    Any Builder's Providers, of which there are two around Kildare town. Just prepare to cut it at the shop to fit it into your car.

    Cheap prices = cheap timber = false economy.

    What timber are you looking for and for what intent?

    C24 9x3 16ft , 20/22ft lengths

    For a shed that is roofed with 9x3 beams & skyclad. The existing timbers are rotten and ready to fall in :(

    You could try some of the sawmills in the Glen of Immal, but I doubt you will get 9x3 at a discount as its sawn from premium saw log to get that dimension

    Is making a composite/laminate beam from smaller timber an option then?
