Pressure-treated joists for Sunderland — deck subframe, shed bases, fencing
Common Sunderland jobs we supply timber joist for: Sunderland splits into two jobs-wise: the coastal Roker/Seaburn streets where we're replacing storm-damaged panels and adding caps for longevity, and the inland Silksworth/Doxford estates where it's mostly new-build trade supply and full closeboard runs. Houghton, Hetton and Penshaw run the older terraced stock — lots of single-panel replacements and gate-post jobs.
If it's bigger than a back-garden run — say a developer plot or a multi-house estate — ring the yard and we'll quote the whole load with delivery built in.

All timber & joists →What Sunderland looks like for fencing
The North Sea air is the big factor on anything east of the A1018. Salt accelerates rot at the ground line, so we recommend gravel boards under every coastal fence and pressure-treated posts as a minimum — never untreated. Sandy soil in pockets near Seaburn and Roker means standard post depths need a touch more concrete than inland.
