    Default 300mm Barge boards What to use?

    I have an old (1915) house and some of the Barge boards (300mm x 45mm) need to be replaced.

    Getting hold of any type of timber that wide these days is like winning the lottery .

    I am after some ideas /suggestions what to use ?

    I want to keep the same style and appearance .

    Whats the widest treated pine facia board available ?

    TIA

    Greg

    You can get standard rougher header T/Pine in 290x45.

    Unless you are loaded with money, either use ply or laminate some thinner stock to make up the 300mm.
