Why Redwood?

While tastes and trends fade in and out, there’s a reason redwood has remained the choice for discriminating homeowners and builders for decades. It starts with the iconic and rich beauty of the wood. After all, it’s not hard to fall in love with the warmth and unique look of real redwood.

But it doesn’t end there.

Redwood is also highly sought after because of its unique wood properties. It has a natural resistance to decay, fire and insects, making it the best of both worlds, all the beauty of real wood with low maintenance. Redwood is also extremely stable, more than most soft woods, meaning it goes on straight and stays straight, with far less of the shrinkage, warping and splitting inherent with other woods. It also takes stains and finishes better than other woods. And even a redwood deck that’s a decade or more old can be cleaned or sanded and restored, saving you thousands of dollars over a full replacement. Redwood truly is the option that offers both looks and performance.
