About Us
Timber Love is a group of dedicated timber professionals specialising in timber maintenance and restoration of exterior cladding, decks and fences.
After spending 25 years building with all timbers, the company’s founder, Brad Richards who is a Master Builder by trade, saw the use of timbers especially Cedar was becoming more prevalent due to its huge amount of benefits such as its natural resistance to water, insect infections and decay as well as its durability, a degree of thermal insulation and especially post-earthquake in Christchurch, its volume to weight ratio, which was ideal for lightweight construction.

Timber Maintenance & Restoration
Even timber needs love
We know that your home’s beautiful timber cladding is your pride and joy. Not only that, but timber, especially Cedar gives you lots of benefits such as its resistance to water, insect infections, and decay – it is also durable, warm, and lightweight.
But all great relationships are a two-way street – you need to show your timber some love in return: time to call the relationship experts. Timber homes only benefit from its durability when they are maintained correctly.
Has Your Timber Been Neglected for Years?
Treat It to a Restorative Spa!
To revive your timber cladding back to its original glory, Timber Love can take the daunting task of restoration off your hands, with a professional service to make your cladding look healthy and new again.
If your timber is starting to look aged, grey, warped and starting to ‘cup’, then talk to our friendly team of timber professionals who will find the right way to restore your cladding. Our process consists of a careful yet thorough wash with a cleanser to remove dirt, dust, and other contaminants.
Our experts will then carefully apply an oil coat on your cladding, making it look new and providing ongoing protection.
Take a Look at Our Timber Maintenance Program
Building New with Cedar? Even New Cedar Needs Care and Protection
It is recommended that you oil your new cedar as it is installed for the most protection, then again 1 year later to ensure ongoing protection from UV rays and harsh weather.
Ongoing Maintenance
The Ongoing Maintenance Program for a Long and Happy Relationship
Regular timber maintenance significantly increases its life span. Wood oil maintains the visual appeal of your timber while protecting its durability. After initial consultation and inspection of your property, we will custom design a maintenance program for your property and advise of any repairs and maintenance.
Quick Guide to Your Maintenance Timeline
It all depends on the sun and weather aspect of your timber and use of the area. The more you re-coat the longer it will last and the better it will look.
Stains – Timber stain provides a film barrier to the surface of the timber, making the timber look new and healthy again. Staining requires 2 x coats.
Oil – Wood oils deeply penetrate the timber and cedar to replace any natural oils lost, giving it longer, lasting nourishment and protection. Oils can be tinted to match existing timber colour and allows the natural grain of the wood to be seen through, only requiring one coat at a time.

Lucy
Timber Love did a fantastic job re-staining our deck. We have no hesitation recommending them to future customers.
Sally
Our cedar cladding was so faded and grey it looked awful, but it was too big a job for us to do ourselves. Timber Love did a great job oiling it and it looks amazing, they also colour matched the existing colour as we didn’t know what it was.
John
Thanks guys. Brad and his team did a great job oiling our cedar cladding. It had been years since we had previously done it, so was long overdue. Highly recommend.
