Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Australian hardwood different from imported alternatives?
Australian hardwoods are uniquely adapted to local environmental conditions, with dense fibres that provide natural durability and strength. They’re also graded and milled under strict national standards, ensuring consistency and structural integrity. Imported timbers may lack this quality control or suitability for harsh climates like Ballina’s.
Are all hardwoods suitable for use in bushfire zones?
Not all, but species like Blackbutt, Spotted Gum and Ironbark are rated for BAL (Bushfire Attack Level) compliance. These timbers are dense and slow to ignite, making them safer in areas with bushfire risk. Always consult your builder and local planning requirements to confirm BAL suitability for your site.
What’s the best timber for building outdoor stairs near the coast?
Tallowwood and Ironbark are excellent choices due to their high natural resistance to moisture, termites and salt exposure. These species hold their shape well over time and can be used without chemical treatment in many cases. Correct installation and finishing help maximise their longevity and grip.
How do I calculate the amount of timber needed for a build?
Start with a clear materials list from your builder or designer that includes dimensions and load-bearing requirements. Timber supply can then be calculated in lineal metres or cubic metres, depending on your needs. Suppliers like Marshall Notaras Hardwoods can help finalise quantities based on span tables and application.
