KHS Landscaping has produced modern bespoke panelling and screening in Cedar for the past five years. We have recently started producing standard sized contemporary panels to sell online.
Background, Properties and Care of Cedar
The Western Red Cedar (Thuja plicata) comes from the northern Rocky Mountains and Pacific North-west. Its light weight and durability make it ideal for use as garden panelling and screening. The wood after felling and drying assumes a uniform reddish-brown tone. If left untreated and exposure to the weather the colour becomes silver-grey. This weathered appearance is sometimes purposely sought by designers and architects, but a peculiarity of the wood is its ability to take and hold stain without discolouration. KHS coat all dried cedar with 3 coats of Danish oil, this protects both the wood and brings out the colouring. We recommend that customers continue to coat with Danish oil every year.
Cedar is the ideal lightweight solution to extending your privacy.
