Revamping your garden should not be a daunting task but rather an exciting opportunity to infuse charm, practicality, and longevity into your outdoor space. One way to achieve this transformation is by using tanalised timber shiplap, known for its durability and appealing aesthetics. In this post, we will explore how you can incorporate tanalised timber shiplap into your garden design and the benefits of using it.
Why Choose Tanalised Timber Shiplap for Your Garden?

Timber adds an organic warmth that blends seamlessly with the natural elements of a garden. Our shiplap, specifically the 16x100 Tanalised Treated Shiplap, is an ideal choice for several reasons. But first, why opt for tanalised timber?
Durability with Tanalising Treatment
Tanalising is a pressure treatment that imbues timber with preservatives, enhancing resistance to decay, pests, and harsh weather conditions. This means your timber structures will endure longer, maintaining their strength and appearance over time. Choosing tanalised timber like the shiplap available at Timber DIY ensures you invest in long-lasting materials.
Stunning Aesthetic Appeal
The 16x100 Tanalised Treated Shiplap is crafted from FSC sourced Redwood, a timber known for its beautiful grains and tones. This choice not only supports sustainable forestry but also provides a visually appealing finish for your garden.
You may wonder, "How can shiplap revamp my garden?" Let’s delve into some creative ways to use it:
1. Decorative Garden Walls
Garden walls constructed with shiplap can define spaces, add privacy, and create a stunning backdrop for plants. The tongue and groove profile of our shiplap ensures a seamless fit, providing an attractive and professional finish.
Imagine a sunny afternoon with friends in your beautifully sheltered garden area—shiplap walls around you, adding stylish enclosure while climbing plants create a green tapestry over this natural backdrop.
2. Stylish Sheds and Storage Solutions
Does your current garden storage lack style? Transform it into something special with tanalised timber shiplap. Our tanalised shiplap will breathe new life into garden sheds, offering a robust shell that withstands elements while looking fabulous.
3. Unique Planters and Raised Beds
