Why Choose Our Kiln Dried Logs
Choosing properly kiln dried logs isn't just marketing talk – it makes a genuine, measurable difference to how your fire performs, how much heat you get, and how much maintenance your stove needs.
Low moisture content (below 20%)
Our logs are professionally kiln dried to below 20% moisture, which means they catch fire quickly with minimal kindling and fuss. More importantly, the energy goes into warming your home rather than evaporating water, so you'll genuinely feel more heat from each log you burn.
Consistent, long-lasting burn
Properly dried logs burn steadily and predictably over several hours, giving you reliable warmth without constant attention. You'll find yourself reloading less frequently, which means lower wood consumption overall and far better control over your stove temperature throughout the day or evening.
Cleaner burning
Kiln dried logs produce minimal smoke once established, keeping your stove glass clear for longer and preventing that frustrating black coating. Crucially, they also create far less creosote build-up in your flue – this isn't just about convenience, excessive creosote is a genuine fire hazard that any professional sweep will warn you about.
Minimal ash residue
Our logs burn almost completely, leaving fine ash rather than chunks of unburnt wood. This means easier stove maintenance – you'll empty your ash pan less often and spend far less time cleaning out your firebox between burns, leaving more time to actually enjoy your fire
Compared to seasoned logs, kiln dried logs burn hotter, cleaner, and more efficiently, making them the preferred choice for modern wood-burning appliances.

Which should you choose?
Choose hardwood if you're heating your home regularly, running a wood burner as your primary heat source, or want longer burn times with fewer reloads overnight.
Choose softwood if you need quick heat for short periods, you're firing up a pizza oven, or you want cost-effective kindling and initial fire-starting material.
Consider mixed loads for the best of both worlds – softwood gets your fire going quickly, whilst hardwood sustains it once established. This works brilliantly for occasional weekend fires or transitional seasons when you don't need all-day heat.
How Much Firewood Do You Need?
Working out how much firewood to order depends on how often you burn, what type of appliance you're using, and whether you're heating occasionally or relying on wood as your primary heat source.
Occasional weekend fires (1-2 times per week): A net bag or small crate (around 20-30kg) typically lasts 2-3 weeks. Budget for roughly 3-4 nets per month during colder months, or one small crate monthly.
Regular evening fires (4-5 times per week): You'll likely burn through 1-2 crates per month depending on fire duration and stove size. Most customers in this category order 2-3 crates at a time to avoid constant reordering.
Daily heating (wood burner as primary heat source): Expect to use 2-4 cubic metres over a full winter season (October-March). Serious users often burn 6-8 logs daily, which adds up to around 0.5-0.7 cubic metres monthly during peak winter.
Commercial use (restaurants, pubs, pizza ovens) – Usage varies enormously based on opening hours and appliance type. Most hospitality customers start with a bulk bag (1 cubic metre) and adjust reorder frequency based on actual consumption patterns.
Our Logs Ready for Wood Burners, Open Fires & Pizza Ovens
Our kiln dried logs work brilliantly across all wood-burning applications, whether heating your home or cooking outdoors.
- Wood-burning stoves: Cut to standard 25cm lengths, our logs deliver clean, efficient combustion meeting DEFRA requirements. Low moisture means maximum heat, minimal glass sooting, and less creosote build-up – exactly what modern stoves need.
- Open fireplaces: You'll get strong, attractive flames with far less smoke. Properly dried logs produce satisfying crackle and glow without hissing or steaming that refuses to catch.
- Pizza ovens: Our hardwood generates the intense heat (400-500°C) pizza ovens demand, burning cleanly without smoke tainting food flavour whilst maintaining consistent temperatures for multiple pizzas.
- Chimineas and fire pits: Our logs light easily and burn reliably outdoors, giving you enjoyable fires without constant attention or smoke annoying neighbours.
Incorrectly sized or damp logs can damage your appliance. Oversized logs create incomplete combustion; damp wood produces excessive creosote leading to dangerous chimney fires or expensive repairs that proper firewood prevents.
