Firewood

Most fireplaces, wood burning appliances are the focal point of a room, especially in those colder months, the warmth from the fire, the scent of wood smoke, the smell of dry logs stacked by the side, all characteristics of a good fire.

What makes a bad fire? Wet, damp wood, high moisture content inside the logs, green logs just cut (not seasoned/kiln dried). It’s a customer’s nightmare as bad firewood can cost you more money not just on the load of logs you just bought but the damage it could cause to your chimney, flue, the build-up of creosote and soot can be dangerous.

So, what we do is make it easy for our customers when buying firewood, whether you contact us, over the phone, email us your order or buy logs online we can provide you with regular firewood deliveries and friendly professional advice.

Why buy kiln dried logs? It comes down to the internal moisture content of the logs, the drier the log the better the burn (heat output). The kiln drying process reduces the moisture content in the wood, making kiln dried firewood more energy efficient. Insects and mould spores do not survive the kiln drying process, powder post beetles, ants, termites and Asian long horned beetles are all destroyed. The average moisture content is less than 20%, should be easy to light and provide a clean burn. The glass on your wood burning stove shouldn’t go black and your flue shouldn’t get excess build-up of soot or tar, which could cause chimney fires.
