Request: Decking boards/Timber (Strawberry Hill TW2) Hi all, I’m replacing a small section of garden decking and wanted to check here before buying new. I’m looking for: Decking boards around 120mm wide (approx 2.4m long ideal, but happy to cut down longer pieces) Pressure-treated timber preferred Also interested in any spare joists / structural timber suitable for outdoor use I need roughly 15–20 boards, but I’m very happy to take smaller quantities if that’s what you have. Condition: Used is absolutely fine Slight weathering / cosmetic wear is no problem Just needs to be structurally sound Can collect locally (Twickenham / nearby areas) and flexible on timing. Thanks so much in advance - really appreciate any help with this 😊

Request: Fence panels 6 x 6 (5 required) (Strawberry Hill TW2) Withdrawn Hoping for a miracle in the shape of pressure-treated closeboard to replace my fence which has blown over. Fence length: ~7.5 metres Panels needed: 5 (standard 6x6) Hoping some kind soul can help me out.

Free: mirrored bathroom cabinet (cracked mirror – repairable) (Strawberry Hill TW2) Withdrawn Free to collect – mirrored bathroom cabinet. Unfortunately the mirror panel has cracked (see photo), but the cabinet itself is otherwise in good condition and fully usable. Could be ideal for someone handy, a repair project, or upcycling. I contacted Hounslow Glass Co. Ltd. (est. 1983) and they quoted around £20 to replace the mirror panel — so a relatively straightforward and affordable fix if you want to restore it. Size approx: Height: 64.5 cm Width: 58 cm Depth: 11 cm Compact size – great for small bathrooms, cloakrooms or en-suites. Collection only from near Twickenham Green First come, first served. --- Will prioritise quickest collection.

Request: Calico/material (Strawberry Hill TW2) Expired I'm starting to learn how to sew, and would appreciate any unwanted thin material - calico is my preference for learning but other cotton would be great too. Preferably in pieces larger than 50cm x 50cm as I'm starting with making a cushion cover. Thank you!

Request: Cupboard for under bathroom sink (Strawberry Hill TW2) Expired I have a very strange bathroom sink and can't find anything the right height and width for this very narrow space. I'm looking for a single door slimline cupboard at least 70cm tall, preferably only about 25cm deep and about 30cm wide. It's a long shot, but thought I'd ask here. Thank you!
