Redwood Barn Siding

These barns were built on the Ferndale bottoms in the late 1800s and early 1900s from fine grained Eel River redwood.  They were no longer functional when the owners contacted us to dismantle them so that the old growth material could still be used in a new application.  The barn boards come in various widths (from 8" to 14" , but mainly 1x12) and have coloration that varies from silver to lichen-covered green.

We also salvaged the barn timbers, mainly 6x6 and 6x8 and larger, as well as the corrugated metal roofing.

 

You may want to look at cedar 1x10 and 1x12 remilled from old timbers.  These boards turn silver in a year or two and are structurally more sound than the older redwood barn siding.

     

There is a commercial airport in Arcata (serviced by United Express and Horizon Airlines) and several non-commercial airfields in the Eureka area.  If you plan to fly in, let us know and we will pick you up.
