As with all of nature’s work, each piece of timber is unique. Subtle variations in color, patterns, and markings give the wood its distinctive character. We use these character marks to grade the lumber into eight categories: Edge Grain, Colonial, Contemporary, Country, Cabin, Pre-Finished, Antique, and Honduran. Each grade has its own personality. But, whether you choose an elegant look, or one that is more rustic, you can be assured that your heart pine will be forever beautiful, and always in style.
Our primary source of timber is densely grown longleaf pine. Due to its rich color variations and proven durability, longleaf is superior to all other species of yellow pine in both quality and appearance. Your hardwood floor will show its natural beauty for years.
All grades are trimmed for defect and end waste before shipping. Each board is free from loose knots, rot, wane, resinous pitch pockets, through splits and shakes. The lumber is tallied in one foot intervals from 2 to 16 feet and packed in random lengths averaging 8 to 9 feet. All lumber is kiln dried to an average moisture content of 8-1/2%. Our flooring is run to standard pattern with 1/4" tongue and groove with a single hollow back on bottom.
