5/4 Cedar Deck Boards

Western red cedar is the ultimate decking material. It’s sourced sustainably in Canada and possesses a number of properties that make it perfect for use in decking in Eastern Ontario.

In addition to the common 5/4x6 size, we also stock 5/4x6 select grade (clear, no knots) and 5/4x5 standard grade.

Naturally Rot Resistant

Western red cedar contains natural oils that help resist decay and moisture, making it well suited for exterior applications.

Dimensionally Stable

Western red cedar resists warping, twisting, and shrinking better than other softwoods and is perfect for siding and decking.

Sustainable

Western red cedar is responsibly sourced and renewable, offering a long service life with a lower environmental impact than many alternative materials.

2" Cedar Decking

For those looking for a thicker deck board, we stock standard and G4S 2" cedar as well.

2x6 cedar is available up to 20'. We also carry 2x4, 2x6, 2x10 and 2x12 in various lengths.

2x6 tongue and groove decking is milled onsite in our Ottawa manufacturing center.

Cedar Categorization

We sort our cedar using two factors: face appearance and knots.  Using these criteria, we categorize all of our cedar into one of four grades: Select, Good Four Sides, Premium, and Standard. 

Abbreviated as D, also called Surfaced. Dressed (or surfaced) means the lumber face has been machined, usually planed, and is smooth. Lumber can be dressed on one or more sides. For example D4S stands for dressed four sides and means every side of the board has been machined. D2S stands for dressed two sides and means the top and bottom face have been machined.
Abbreviated as G. This means that we have hand sorted cedar for pieces free of defects. Lumber can be graded Good on one or more sides. For example: G4S stands for good four sides and means the face is defect-free on all four sides. G1F2E stands for good one face, two edges and means that all but the bottom face is defect-free.
There are stable knots (meaning they won't fall out) throughout the board. This is sometimes referred to as STK (select tight knotty).
Indicates that the boards are virtually free of knots. This type of cedar is also referred to as select.
