Tips for First-Time Buyers

• Bring project photos and dimensions to help staff recommend the best species and grades for your specific application
• Ask about the history of different pieces – knowing a board’s origin story adds value to your finished project
• Inspect boards for nail holes, checking, and other character marks to ensure they match your design vision
• Consider moisture content and acclimation time needed before installation, especially for flooring applications
• Inquire about custom milling services if you need specific profiles or dimensions not available in stock
• Plan for 10-15% overage when calculating quantities, as character variations may require some selectivity during installation
