Timbers

We manufacture the widest range of profiled red cedar timber products in the country, for residential and commercial applications.

Looking up into a timber pavilion roof against a blue sky: rough sawn timber rafters, a king post truss and heavy beams meeting at the corners, under tongue and groove roof decking. — Rough sawn
Straight off the saw, with the tool marks left showing.

A timber frame going up on a building site: square posts and heavy beams, every face scalloped by the hewing tool, with a hewn timber wall rising behind them and a ladder among the posts. — Hand hewn
The standard finish on our timbers, worked by hand across the face.

A long, smooth faced cedar timber laid on a sofa wrapped in plastic, ready to become a mantel: straight grain, a few dark knots and one streak of colour along its face. — Smooth
Cedar with a smooth, even face, for a cleaner look. This piece is a mantel.

Finishes. Hand-hewn, smooth or rough sawn.
Custom sizes. Boards, timbers or slabs up to 24 inches wide.
Long lengths. Up to 50 feet.
Appearance grade as standard. Structural grading on request. How grading works

We are the only red cedar producer in the United States to offer structurally graded red cedar for both log and timber products. All of our timber products are produced here in California; our wood is grown locally and purchased both from the forest and from respected sawmills.

Close up

Close on a square hand hewn timber post in the showroom: shallow scallops left by the hewing tool run down its pale face, beside a wall of rough boards. — Hand hewn
A hewn post close up: the hewing tool's scallops run the length of each face.

Two long, thick slabs lying side by side in the mill yard, their faces rough sawn and their edges left natural, on a floor of sawdust beside a stack of boards. — Rough sawn
A pair of bar slabs at the mill, with the saw's marks left across the face.

A large rough sawn Douglas fir timber laid across the mill yard in low sun: saw marks run across its top face and the growth rings show on its squared end, with a strapping cart and stacked offcuts behind. — Rough sawn Douglas fir
