Hi David, I spent a couple of hours yesterday unwrapping the posts and beams that you laminated for us. I was very impressed with your attention to detail and quality workmanship. Please pass on my comments to the guys, I wish others would take as much care and responsibility with this type of product. Well done.

2build says “the curved laminated beams, capped with a curved roof to enhance the building’s elegance against its coastal backdrop was an architectural challenge”. McIntosh came to the fore to manufacture the structurally engineered curved beams specific to the building, transported them to site & craned them into position.
Paul Roberts, Managing Director of 2Build - “They really have risen to meet the challenge that this job demands. The finishing is met with the same skill that the job started with.”
Timber Water Storage Tanks
“Space frames for the large roof structures of water storage tanks built by Timbertank Enterprises Ltd. (over 250 cum tanks) utilise Glulam laminated beams in their construction because they can rely on their strength, accuracy of profiling and quality of timber treatment,” says Managing Director, Justin Jordan.
“The team at McIntosh supply our needs quickly and efficiently,” says Justin. “Their product enables us to build strong but lightweight structures very economically. The benefits for us of their finger-jointed laminated and tanalised beams relate particularly to weight and ease of handling. It’s a no-brainer compared to having to use steel.” |
