Whether you are framing a multi-story residence or adding custom exterior finishes, we supply materials that meet the industry’s toughest standards for strength and consistency.
Our yard is fully stocked with common framing woods, dimensional boards, and specialized panel products, ensuring that builders from Bentonville and Fayetteville to Eureka Springs and Berryville receive straight, true material for their projects. We understand that time is money on a job site, which is why we prioritize having the stock you need ready for your residential or commercial builds in Huntsville, Jasper, Yellville, and Mountain Home. From the first stud to the final header, we serve the entire region and every community in between with the core materials that make a structure sound.
Here are some of the key engineered wood products we stock:
I-joist (I-Beam)
An engineered structural member, often featuring a plywood or OSB web sandwiched between two solid or laminated wood flanges, creating a lightweight yet strong ‘I’ cross-section for use as floor joists and rafters.
LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber)
A high-strength wood product created by bonding thin wood veneers together under heat and pressure with a waterproof adhesive, commonly used for beams, headers, and rimboard applications where high load-bearing capacity is required.
Rimboard
An engineered wood product, often made from OSB or LVL, used to cap the end of a floor assembly, providing a surface for attaching exterior sheathing or siding and matching the depth of the I-joists or dimensional lumber.
Glulams (Glued-Laminated Timber)
Structural members produced by bonding individual laminations of dimension lumber together with durable, moisture-resistant adhesives, suitable for long spans and heavy loads in beams, columns, and arches.
PSL (Parallel Strand Lumber)
A structural composite lumber made from long, narrow strands of wood veneer that are aligned in a parallel direction and bonded together, offering exceptional strength and consistency for beams, headers, and columns.
Moulding
Decorative millwork, typically made from solid wood or MDF, used to enhance the aesthetic appeal of a room, covering transitions and joints between surfaces, such as baseboards, crown moulding, and casing.
OSB (Oriented Strand Board)
A widely used, cost-effective structural panel made of compressed, cross-oriented layers of wood strands and adhesive, common for roof, wall, and floor sheathing.
Plywood
A versatile building panel constructed from thin layers (plies) of wood veneer glued together, with adjacent plies having their grain rotated up to 90 degrees for strength and dimensional stability in applications like sheathing, subflooring, and underlayment.
