A WHOLE WORLD OF TEXTURES AND COLORS

DOMESTIC HARDWOOD
domestic
hardwood
We only source the finest products from the best growing regions in the eastern part of Canada and the United States. Trees in this region shed their leaves in autumn and develop a dense, hard structure. This makes them extremely durable and less prone to potential damage from fire or water. Many species are carried in thicknesses from 4/4 up to 16/4. We typically, stock the highest grades - FAS, and Select & Better - but we also offer lower grades for those special projects. And of course, FSC® certified materials are available upon request.
EXOTIC WOOD

We always provide timely shipments, competitive prices, and an outstanding experience. Lumber is available in quarter sawn, plain sawn, and euro cuts. Slabs range from 24” to 50” wide and 6’ to 14’ long. Sample pieces are available upon request.
SOFTWOOD
softwood
Softwoods offer unparalleled, seamless finishes that can be designed to add exceptionally beautiful features to commercial projects and residences. We have a wide selection of softwood, including aromatic cedar, red cedar, douglas fir, and white pine. Our products are available in various dimensions and profiles and are air and kiln-dried.
Ipe decking
IPe
Decking
One of the most popular choices in decking projects, Ipe has unmatched advantages, such as an impressive +50-year lifespan and a natural resistance to weathering, blows, wear, mold and fungi, and insects, including termites. It does not tend to warp when facing prolonged exposure to moisture, being highly resistant to decay. Add to all that an elegant appearance, and you find the perfect choice for home improvement projects.
