For estate owners and land managers, trees are more than just part of the landscape, they’re a valuable resource. With careful planning and the right approach, timber from your own land can be turned into beams, boards, cladding, or even bespoke furniture, all while supporting sustainability and reducing waste.
If you’re looking to make the most of your timber this year, here’s how Treecycle can help.
Assess your trees early
Start 2026 by surveying your land. Which trees are mature, storm-damaged, or due for management? Understanding the size, species, and condition of your timber is key to planning projects that maximise value.
Our team can visit your estate to evaluate the logs and provide guidance on which trees are ideal for milling, helping you prioritise the right timber for your 2026 projects.
Plan projects around your timber
Once you know what timber you have available, think about what you want to achieve this year.
- Infrastructure: barns, field shelters, fencing, or stables
- Buildings: cladding, flooring, or internal structures
- Decorative or bespoke work: furniture, benches, or live-edge slabs
By matching the timber to the intended project, you reduce waste and ensure the material is used to its full potential.
Make use of on-site milling
Transporting timber off-site can be costly and wasteful. Our portable sawmill allows us to mill your trees on your land, turning them into usable beams, boards, and slabs immediately.
This approach:
✅ Minimises transport and associated costs
✅ Keeps timber local and sustainable
✅ Preserves the character and story of your estate’s trees
Schedule timber projects thoughtfully
Timing is important. Some trees need seasoning before use, while others may be suitable for immediate work. By scheduling milling and cutting early in the year, you ensure your timber is ready for projects as they arise, whether that’s estate maintenance, building upgrades, or bespoke woodworking.
