Your Local Timber Merchant for Hereford
Walford Timber is a family run timber and fencing merchant serving Hereford and the surrounding villages from our yard in Ross-on-Wye, just along the A49. We have been sawing, treating and supplying timber since 1945, and our range covers fence panels, garden sheds, decking, sawn timber and landscaping supplies for trade and domestic customers alike. Order online for collection or local delivery, or visit the yard to see the timber before you buy.
Fencing Supplies for Hereford Gardens and Trade Projects
Fencing is where most Hereford customers start with us, and it is also where we hold the deepest stock. Every fence panel is manufactured and pressure treated in our own Wye Valley workshop, a few miles from Hereford, so you are buying timber that has not spent weeks on a lorry before it reaches you.
Choose from lap panels, closeboard panels, slatted and decorative styles, all backed by a 10 year guarantee. If you would rather build a fence board by board, we stock everything needed for a traditional closeboard run, including feather edge boards, arris rails, gravel boards and our PermaTimber® posts, which carry a 15 year guarantee against rot and insect damage.
For rural properties around Hereford and the Wye Valley, we also supply post and rail fencing, stock fencing and gate posts for paddocks, fields and boundaries.
Our Hereford Timber Yard
Garden Sheds, Log Stores and Garden Buildings
Alongside fencing, our pressure treated garden sheds are popular with customers across Herefordshire. The range runs from our Premium sheds, built with features such as Tyvek Housewrap to keep damp out, through to simple, affordable feather edge sheds for general storage.
We also stock ready to assemble log stores, ideal for keeping firewood dry and well ventilated through the winter, along with garden benches, arches and raised beds if you are finishing off the rest of the garden at the same time.
Decking, Sleepers and Landscaping Timber
For decking, sleepers, retaining walls and general landscaping, we supply pressure treated boards and joists cut to standard sizes, along with composite decking for a lower maintenance finish. Sleepers are a popular choice for raised beds, steps and low retaining walls in Herefordshire gardens, and we hold stock in the common sizes for collection or delivery.
Bark, woodchip and geotextile membrane are also available if you are taking on a wider landscaping project.
Sawn Timber, Cladding and Plywood
As well as fencing and garden products, we are a working sawmill and timber merchant in the traditional sense. We supply C16 graded structural timber, sawn and planed joists, timber battens, and hardwood and softwood plywood for building and joinery work.
Our cladding range includes feather edge, log lap, shiplap and waney edge finishes, popular with builders, joiners and self builders across Herefordshire who want timber prepared to a consistent standard rather than picked over stock.
[H2] Serving Hereford, the Wye Valley and the Forest of Dean
Our Ross-on-Wye yard sits close to the Herefordshire, Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire borders, so we regularly deliver, or supply collection orders, to customers well beyond Hereford itself. That includes Ledbury, Leominster and the Forest of Dean to the east, and Monmouth, Abergavenny, Chepstow and Pontypool across the border in Wales.
Wherever you are collecting from or delivering to, the same stock, the same sawmill established in 1945, and the same trade pricing applies.
