Know the difference, save time and work. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve been shopping around the internet for anything timber related during the various lockdowns be it sheds<\/a>, fencing<\/a>, decking<\/a> or garden buildings<\/a> you will have undoubtedly stumbled across the terms “pressure treated” or “dip treated” timber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These treatments are an important factor when buying anything made from wood, the treatments offer varying levels of protection. Let’s take a look at the difference between the two methods<\/strong> and how each one benefits us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The great news is both treatments protect against rot and decay. We pre-treat most of our fence panels right here before it reaches you, the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Dip Treatment.<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a>
Dip treated fence panels have a golden brown appearance.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

The method is exactly as the name suggests! Simply dipped into the treatment solution and left to dry. This gives the wood a brown\/golden appearance and often results in a lower cost product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The draw back to dip treatment?<\/strong> It doesn’t last as long and will need additional applications. This can be done at home with a brush\/spray<\/a> on solution<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most people treat their fence\/shed every year or every other year depending on weather conditions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before treating at home, make sure the surfaces are free from any algae, dirt or existing paint\/stain. For best results from the treatment it must be used on bare wood. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Pressure treatment.<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a>
Pressure treated fence panels do not require additional applications.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

If the thought of having to re-treat your timber products year after year makes you shudder at the very thought then pressure treated fence panels are the way to go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When pressure treating timber after it’s been cut to size, It’s placed into a large tank which is sealed before the air is removed via a vacuum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By removing the air & moisture within the timber, you are left with more space deep within it, and so after the air has been removed, the tank is flooded with a preservative. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the tank is full, the air is removed for a second time which forces the preservative deep into the grain of the timber. Pressure treatment is so deeply penetrated into the grain of the timber that reapplication is rarely needed<\/strong> and provide far more protection against rot and fungal decay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The majority of our pressure treated fence panels<\/a> come with a ten year guarantee<\/strong> against rot and fungal decay, meaning that the initial cost may be a little higher, but will save you time and money in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

So the simple answer is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don’t mind the upkeep and are on a budget, dip treated fence panels are just fine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you would rather have panels that have been treated for a longer life before they even reach you then make sure you check that they have been pressure treated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
