Western Red Cedar Siding

For centuries builders and artisans have valued Western Red Cedar for its natural beauty and durability. Because cedar is virtually pitch and resin free, the wood easily accepts a range of finishes, from fine oils and stains, to solid coatings and paint so you can customize the look of your home.

We offer several different types of Western Red Cedar Siding.

Clear Western Red Cedar
Clear cedar is the highest quality of Western Red Cedar available. Most pieces are completely free and clear of knots and imperfections. The grade allows only minor blemishes that do not detract from the cedar’s overall exceptional appearance.

A Grade Western Red Cedar
A Grade cedar allows for slightly more imperfections than Clear cedar and is comprised of both flat and vertical grain cedars. Flat grain lumber is sawn approximately parallel to the annual growth rings so that some or all of the rings form an angle of less than 45% with the surface of the board. Vertical grain is sawn at approximately right angles to the annual growth rings so that the rings form an angle of 45% or more with the surface of the board.
