As natural wood species go, redwood is in a class of its own.

A sustainable alternative to tropical hardwoods,

redwood is grown and harvested to the highest environmental standards in the world.

Name for the dark red heartwood at the center of the tree,

redwood imparts natural beauty, warmth, and durability to interior and exterior building applications, including decking, fencing,

paneling, siding, exposed beams and timbers, pergolas, and other shade structures.

Like when we were building this house,

like, we'll never sell this house, we'll live here forever.

And yesterday I was driving home,

and I saw a project under construction,

and I thought,

maybe we will sell the house so we can do it again.
