Hand-Hewn & Rough Sawn Timbers
Wood beams are an excellent way to add natural texture to your living space. We offer both reclaimed hardwood and natural white oak. The white oak is naturally aged, air dried and structurally rated to meet engineering demands. White oak timbers are the ultimate building component, both structurally and aesthetically.
In addition to white oak, we have hemlock timbers that are a great soft wood timber option. These beams weather gracefully and are very rot & bug resistant. Hemlock is a very stable timber that resists warping / twisting. Stronger and harder than pine, these can be used in high strength applications.
