Reclaimed Redwood has a beautiful red color with very few color variations.  Redwood provides an exotic yet conservative look to any accent wall, flooring, craft project, furniture and other project.  Texture of the redwood ranges from silky to slightly coarse. 

The redwood tree is the largest tree in the world.  Because of its size and beautiful wood it was over logged and now the remaining redwood forests are highly protected and it is nearly impossible to attain fresh redwood lumber.  Only through the reclamation efforts of companies like ours are we able to provide this beautiful reclaimed wood for your projects. Resturants, bars, commercial buildings, residential buildings are all places where you could find our redwood.

 

Why Redwood..........

 

In addition to the beauty of Rural Western Reclaimed Redwood, resistance to natural enemies such as insects and fire are built-in features of a coast redwood. Diseases are virtually unknown and insect damage insignificant thanks to the high tannin content of the wood. Thick bark and foliage that rests high above the ground provides protection from all but the hottest fires.
