Rough Cut Cedar Wood

At Metro Building Products, we specialize in rough cut cedar lumber. Rough sawn cedar is wood that has been cut from a log and then literally left rough for the receiver to use as desired. It provides better control over using finished or partially finished lumber and is considered a more cost-effective option. Some people prefer the course nature of rough cut cedar and leave it in its natural state, while others choose to have it planed. If the latter is your preference, consider our in-house sawing and planing services. Our in-house services provide a custom option for your rough cedar posts, rough cedar beams, and rough cedar boards.

Cedar Ceilings

Cedar ceilings offer a unique, elegant look to any structure. When designing, planning, and constructing spaces, people don’t often think of cedar for their ceilings, instead, they stick with the more standard options of plaster or drywall. In using cedar, you can instantly create a warm, appealing feel while also enjoying all the benefits cedar lumber has to offer. Western red cedar is considered one of the most appealing in wood ceiling choices. This cedar is a natural insulator, sound absorber, and is extremely durable.
