Quality and best solutions from day one

We provide customers with quality from the time they first contact us to completion of their project.  Some know exactly what they want, others are uncertain, and some have projects with significant challenges.  Either way, we think carefully from the outset and provide each customer with a range of clever, innovative solutions that offer them significant benefits.

Certified Timber Systems

Certified Timber Systems Limited (CTS) is a joint venture company started by Total Timba and four other companies, all with an interest in the New Zealand market for exterior timber joinery, manufacturing windows and doors. 

CTS is committed to designing and testing exterior timber joinery systems for the New Zealand building industry. Its first official branded product range is nearing completion. Most Certified products are available today.

An example of our traditional joinery techniques:
The mortise and tenon joint

It’s the joint that makes the difference.  We use traditional mortise and tenon joints on all of our joinery.  This technique has been used for thousands of years – for good reason.  The fundamental style is comprised of a tenon, or rectangle tongue, being inserted into a matching slotted hole, or mortise, on the other piece. It achieves a strong, snug joint that does not rely solely on glues to keep it together for years of everyday use and, because it is not exposed, it is significantly less likely that any moisture will seep into the timber joint.

Many joiners over the years have made variations to the technique to make production faster, but these variations have a detrimental effect on the strength and longevity of the joint. We do it the tried and trusted way.
