Hardwood logs for sale in Chiddingfold
Are you in need of seasoned hardwood logs in Chiddingfold or nearby towns and villages in Surrey? Do you require logs/firewood for a wood stove, log burner, fire pit or open fire to be delivered directly to your door? Are you interested in purchasing logs from a sustainable source?
If you are, then you have come to the right place!
Andrew Heard is an established family-run business that has been supplying seasoned hardwood logs to homes and businesses in Chiddingfold for almost 40 years.
Naturally dried hardwood logs in Chiddingfold
Our hardwood logs undergo a minimum of 14 months of air-drying before they are made available for sale. This extended drying period significantly reduces the carbon footprint associated with our firewood, making it more environmentally friendly than kiln-dried logs.
While seasoned logs are naturally dried in the open air, kiln dried logs are placed in kilns where they are dried out over several days, with the help of additional wood and electricity. However, this method leads to higher carbon emissions, making kiln dried logs less sustainable than our naturally dried logs.
Coal and kindling
As well as supplying seasoned hardwood logs to homes and businesses in Chiddingfold and nearby towns and villages in Surrey, we also offer Homefire Ovals smokeless coal, firelighters (natural and Zip) and kindling. Supplies of coal and kindling can be collected from our yard or added to a delivery of logs.
Homefire Ovals is the ideal smokeless coal for multi-fuel stoves, barbecues, and open fires. Compared to regular house coal, Homefire Ovals have a longer burning duration (up to 40% longer) and can generate 20% more heat while producing up to 80% less smoke. This makes them not only better for the environment but also more cost-effective. Also worth noting is that Homefire Ovals have been known to burn for an impressive nine hours!
Preassembled wooden log stores
Many of our customers in Chiddingfold have purchased our preassembled wooden log stores to help keep their logs dry and protected from the elements during the winter months.
Our affordable log stores feature a slanted roof to allow rain to run off, as well as slatted sides to ensure there is sufficient airflow around your logs.
Our preassembled log stores do a fantastic job of keeping your firewood dry and ready to burn, but it is important that hardwood logs are stored away from sources of moisture, such as trees, streams and lakes, as the logs can reabsorb this moisture from the atmosphere. It is also important that your logs are not covered up completely with a tarpaulin, as this will restrict the flow of air around your logs, causing them to “sweat”.
We offer free delivery of our wooden log stores when delivered with a load of seasoned hardwood logs to anywhere in Chiddingfold and the surrounding towns and villages.
Sustainable timber in Chiddingfold
All of our seasoned hardwood logs for sale in Chiddingfold and Surrey are produced from timber bought from sustainable sources, such as the Forestry Commission. We obtain the wood from local areas wherever possible, with much of it sourced from Dorking, Ewhurst and Selhurst.
At Andrew Heard, We are always evaluating and refining our in-house processes in order to reduce our carbon footprint and minimise our impact on the environment.
We are also proud members of Woodsure, the UK’s regulatory body for log suppliers. This ensures our logs for sale in Chiddingfold are all ready to burn and have a moisture content of less than 20%. This helps to reduce the smoke and pollution given off by logs as they are burned, and makes for a generally cleaner burn.
