Each piece is crafted from the highest quality logs, offering the natural beauty and resilience expected from this esteemed timber. Whether you’re embarking on an external project or looking for materials that combine durability with aesthetic appeal, this rough-sawn Douglas fir is your ideal choice.
The wood typically showcases a light brown hue with subtle hints of red and yellow, complemented by darker growth rings, ensuring each piece displays its own unique character. The grain ranges from straight to slightly wavy, with a medium to coarse texture that boasts a moderate natural luster. From structural applications to cladding, this timber performs exceptionally well, accepting stains, glues, and finishes with ease.
When ordering, keep in mind that lengths are cut oversized and not in exact measurements to facilitate postage. Our specialized cutting process ensures that your timber meets your precise requirements while also accounting for the natural properties of the wood, which may include some warping and movement. We recommend ordering 10% more than needed, especially for cladding, to account for any adjustments during installation.
Sustainability is a cornerstone of Douglas Fir, classified as a species of least concern by the IUCN, making it an environmentally responsible choice. Additionally, while the heartwood is moderately durable against decay, it remains vulnerable to insect attacks, so suitable protective measures should be considered for long-term use.
