Are you looking for seasoned hardwood logs in Leatherhead or nearby towns in Surrey? Do you need dry logs/firewood for a wood stove, log burner, fire pit or open fire delivered direct to your door? Do you want to buy logs from a sustainable source?
If you are, then Andrew Heard can help!
We are an established family-run business that has been supplying hardwood hardwood logs to homes and businesses in Leatherhead since 1984.
Naturally dried hardwood logs in Leatherhead
Our seasoned logs are all air-dried for a minimum of 14 months prior to sale. This significantly reduces the carbon footprint of our firewood compared to kiln dried logs, making our hardwood logs much better for the environment.
While seasoned logs are air-dried, kiln dried logs are dried in kilns over several days, using additional wood and electricity to fuel the kilns. This increases the carbon footprint of firewood production and has a negative impact on the environment.
Coal and kindling
As well as having seasoned hardwood logs for sale in Leatherhead, we also offer Homefire Ovals smokeless coal, firelighters (natural and Zip) and kindling. For maximum flexibility, coal and kindling can be collected from our yard or added to a delivery of logs.
Homefire Ovals is the perfect smokeless coal for multi-fuel stoves, barbecues and open fires. Burning up to 40% longer than normal house coal, Homefire Ovals can generate 20% more heat and produce up to 80% less smoke than regular coal, making them better for the environment and your pocket. In fact, it is not unheard of for Homefire Ovals to burn for up to nine hours!
Preassembled log stores
Many of our customers in Leatherhead have bought our preassembled log stores to help keep their firewood dry and protected from the elements during the winter months.
Our affordable wooden log stores feature a slanted roof to allow rain to drain off, as well as slatted sides to ensure there is sufficient airflow around your logs.
Our preassembled log stores do a great job of keeping your firewood dry and ready to burn, but it is important that hardwood logs are stored away from trees, streams and other sources of moisture, as the logs can reabsorb this moisture from the atmosphere. It is also important that your logs are not completely covered 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 hardwood logs to anywhere in Leatherhead and the surrounding areas.
Sustainable timber in Leatherhead
All of our seasoned hardwood logs for sale in Leather are produced from timber bought from sustainable sources, such as the Forestry Commission. We obtain the wood from local sources wherever possible, with much of it coming from the Dorking, Ewhurst and Selhurst areas.
At Andrew Heard, We are always evaluating our in-house processes and looking for additional ways to 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 Leatherhead are all ready to burn and have a moisture content of less than 20%. This leads to a cleaner burn and reduces the smoke and pollution given off by logs as they are burned.
