Your Specs Are Our Specialty

We custom-mill and handle only ecologically salvaged old growth redwood, clear all heart, all quarter-sawn, all fully air-dried correctly, never used before. No holes, warps, rust, splits, or other waste.

We also have thousands of board feet in quarter-sawn cants, from 24″ x 24″ and down, all of sawlog lengths. We have decks of quarter-sawn full dimension timbers from 24″ x 24″ down.

All our lumber has been air-dried for at least 1 year per 1″ thickness, years of correct stickering, storage, and rotation right here on our property. No splitting or cupping later!

We work with you, your architect and/or your builder to provide redwood in actual dimensions of lumber, and siding in vertical, flat, or mixed grain. We arrange cutting 1 x 6 T&G redwood lumber, or dimensions you specify. See tongue and groove paneling pictures.

Our redwood is ecologically sound; having been cut by original loggers of the mid-1800s and lain at the bottom of Big River for over 135 years, this lost treasure was salvaged by hand-wench and lift of the tides, raising the water-logged giants from the river bottom 35 feet below. Our redwood is not from second-growth harvesting.

Our redwood’s appeal it is first growth, a different animal than 2nd-5th growth redwood. Why? Because subsequent growth, once the old growth is cut, grows from the original roots, and therefore many, many times faster, resulting in lots of small “sucker” trees, a very pulpy wood (wide growth rings, due to the rapid growth, since the roots are already established), not the dense old growth with tight growth rings. So our old-growth, tight-grain redwood appeals to the fine woodworker who, in my father’s words, wants to build something really beautiful “guiltlessly.”

All-growth redwood provides adequate strength for many uses, as well as superior insulation values. Redwoods minute cell structure, with thousands of air-filled cavities, enables redwoods thermal insulation values. Redwood is easily machined, easy to saw, nail, and glue, and has superior finish-holding ability. Redwood is known for its easy maintenance and beautiful color.
