Quality materials are the key to ensuring the lasting beauty of your exterior structures.  Because we specialize in Redwood, we buy only from the best mills.  We consistently offer the highest quality, widest selection, and lowest prices in the Bay Area.  Many of our competitors offer lower grades of redwood such as con-common (cream in color) which rots away from the heart wood in a short amount of time.  Why spend money on a product that doesn't last?

Unlike other lumber yards, The Lumber Baron offers five grades of premium all-heart redwood to satisfy the highest standards for any budget.  We stock over twenty-five different sizes of redwood, surfaced and rough, in both unseasoned and kiln dried lumber.

A
complete list of our inventory can be found on our redwood products page.  From 2x6 redwood decking, to 12x18 recycled redwood beams, we have the material to satisfy all your redwood building needs.  We are happy to custom mill to any unusual dimension or redwood pattern.  

L
iving green is very important to us and the health of our planet.  To serve your Green Building lumber needs, we offer a number of different reclaimed, salvaged and recycled redwood, cedar and Doug Fir lumber products.  We also stock the sustainably harvested tropical hardwood Angelim Pedra and have access to two others, Tigerwood and Merbau.  The redwood we stock is from generational mills who cut at sustainable rates, in order to ensure they have something to pass down to future generations.

I
n need of a price list?  Just give us a call, we will be happy to fax one over.  On it, you'll find all of our Redwood, Tropical Hardwood, and Pressure Treated Doug Fir prices.  We can also happily quote any of your Cedar, Doug Fir, Radiata Pine, Plywood, Kiln Dried Doug Fir Beam,  Redwood and Cedar Grapestake, Old Growth Redwood, Full Dimension Redwood, Vertical Grain Redwood, Trex or other synthetic wood needs.

Prefinished Tropical Hardwood Decking
Available in 5/4x6 and 1x6, The Lumber Baron is now offering, three different types of sustainably harvested,  prefinished tropical hardwood decking products.  Prefinishing makes installation faster and saves you the much higher cost of labor required to finish the tropical decking boards.  The finish is applied in optimum conditions, evenly and throughly, at a commercial facility to ensure the best finish possible.  Our prefinished tropical hardwood decking boards also eliminate the two week on site acclimation time that unfinished hardwoods need before finishing can even begin.  2x2, 4x4, 2x6 top-rail and 1x4 sub-rail are also available in the tropical hardwood, Tigerwood.
Tigerwood Decking
A dazzling brownish-red tone with varying tiger strips, graded clear with no knots and only minor surface defects, Tigerwood is a beautiful product.   Kiln dried, naturally resistant to decay and insects, and measuring 2160 on the hardness scale, a Tigerwood deck can be counted on to stay beautiful for years to come.
Angelim Decking
A medium-density hardwood with unique characteristics that give it a beautiful warm feeling, an effect resulting from its' straight, course, open grain.  Available now as a stocked item in our yard.
Merbau Decking
Found throughout South East Asia, Merbau is a straight-grain hardwood, similar to walnut and IPE with its' dark brown color.
All of our tropical hardwood decking is backed by a 25 year limited warranty! Ask about a 10% homeowners rebate on qualifying tropical hardwood decking purchases.  Samples are available in our office.
