What drives the price
- Brand and specification account for most of the spread — our range runs R40 to R550.
- Volume changes the rate; contractors buying repeat quantity should be quoted, not charged shelf price.
- Delivery distance is a real line item on bulky timber, so factor it into the comparison.
- VAT is included in every price we publish.
