Pressure Treated Pine

Pressure treated lumber is wood that has been immersed in a liquid preservative and placed in a pressure chamber. The chamber forces the chemical into the wood fibres. The pressurized approach makes sure the chemical makes it to the core of each piece of wood - it is much more effective than simply soaking the wood in the chemical.

Western Red Cedar

Western Red Cedar easily accepts stains and paints while providing long lasting beauty and warmth to your home. Allowed to weather naturally, Western Red Cedar turns a silver gray, helping to create an economical barrier. Western Red Cedar naturally resists rotting and insects, resulting in a durable, long-lasting fence system. The wood is reddish brown in color and it is widely used for construction of fencing, shingles, outdoor furniture, decks, and siding. The oil contained in western red cedar plays a part in its resistance to decay, and is also responsible for the wide use of the wood to repel moths and carpet beetle larvae. Cedar also has an attractive grain and a pleasant aroma that comes from natural thujaplicins in the wood.
