Reclaimed timbers stacked in the shop, nail and bolt holes still in them

Older than the
country it's in

We don't cut old-growth longleaf — there isn't enough left to cut. We take it back out of the mills and barns it went into a hundred and fifty years ago, and run it again.

180years of growth in a 6" face

Longleaf put on an inch of diameter every thirty years. Drag the rule — the width you pick is a length of time.

Longleaf pine built the USS Constitution. It is under the floors of Independence Hall, and it was in Washington's house and Jefferson's. Then the Industrial Revolution got to it, and in one working lifetime almost all of it was gone.

What survived went into buildings — textile mills, cotton warehouses, factory floors. Those buildings are coming down now. We buy the timbers before they are burned or landfilled, pull the iron out of them, and mill them into something that gets another two hundred years.

How a job runs

  1. 01

    You send the takeoff

    Square footage and a species, or a full plan set. A phone photo of the room works too. Whatever you have is enough to start.

  2. 02

    We price it against the yard

    Dustin checks what is actually stacked out back before anything gets quoted, so the number you get is a number we can hold.

  3. 03

    It goes through the mill

    De-nailed, metal detected, kiln dried, milled and end matched here in Mansura. Nothing gets subbed out.

  4. 04

    It ships, or you pick it up

    On our trailer through Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi and Alabama, or freight anywhere else. Acclimate it in the house before it goes down.

Worth the drive

“Jody and the family were fantastic to deal with and the beams are absolutely stunning. Was worth every second of the 7 hour drive each way!”

Mike & Terri J.Beams for a house in Arkansas

“I blew in there needing flooring in a specific time frame… They were more than willing to try and did squeeze my order in and got my flooring ready at a time where we could pick it up.”
