You can try Woodstock up on Tregoniggie Industrial Estate, Falmouth :01326 370020, they used to be at Ponsharden now Ldl store.

I doubt Woodstock will supply as teak seems too special for them.
Try rustler yachts or cockwells they might help.

I've bought teak from Woodstock in the past.

I bought some very good quality teak from Woodstock a few years ago. I thought they had closed down, are they back up in Tregoniggie then?

Yes, been there for quite some time now. Extremely helpful in my experience.

They were / are the prime supplier of hardwoods in the area, list around 20 types on the website .

Many thanks guys

will give Woodstock and Moody a Ring

any thoughts on teak sheet alternative, did think about just a good marine ply with stain and varnish. don't trust my wood work at over £160 a sheet for teak.

need for coach roof lining, but there is a fibre glass roof behind so it only hides the holes for roof fittings. may look as some sort of fabric

Cheers Dave

I stand corrected but when sourcing teak capping they couldn't supply, that was three years ago. So all changed now for the better by the look of it.

You may be right and still not get a teak capping as they are a timber yard, supplying raw timber, though the world changes, sometimes slowly.

48hrs later a machined piece of teak delivered at a very reasonable price.
