We have Cypress lumber in every form in
the industry. Whether it for interior use, or exterior application. Hand
rived Cypress shakes or shingles, decking, shiplap siding, support beams.
Cypress flooring, Old growth cypress lumber , cypress paneling tongue or v-
groove.
Sinker Cypress (cypress sinkers) that are very old, to second
growth logs that have just been cut.
We take Cypress logs out of rivers and swamps that have
been there for hundreds of years that once dried and milled are even more
beautiful than the day they were felled. We take down barns, warehouses,
cotton gins and railroad tunnels, that were built with cypress lumber.
These are hundreds of years old that are reused in homes and businesses
and bring a premium price.
We can handle your needs from the framing to the roof
finish. There has not been a request in any Cypress lumber that we have
not been able to provide.
