Now operating as
Rain Forest Sawmill, our most common products are heavy timbers, siding, decking, interior and exterior trim and fencing, but we also produce door and window stock, furniture stock, mantles, garden bed frames and framing lumber.
We can also provide you with firewood, and sawdust for animal bedding or garden beds.
Furthermore, we offer custom drying and resawing services.
Upon request, we can grade lumber according to building inspection requirements.
Most of our work is with
Douglas Fir and
Western Red Cedar. We also work with Whitewoods, such as
Hemlock,
Balsam and
Spruce, as well as
Western White Pine. Our Hardwoods include
Alder and
Maple. We can also offer
Yellow Cedar.
We are always happy to mill your own logs for you. This can vary from a piece of your old fruit tree brought in your car trunk, up to multiple logging-truckloads.
You should contact the BC Ministry of Forests before transporting logs, however. Check our
Links page for their website as well as the guidelines and application form for a timbermark, which serves as a transport permit. Their service is free but can take a week or two.
Our guarantee: All wood cut is guaranteed to be of the specified grade or better at the time of cutting (and kiln drying if applicable). Blacktail Enterprises and Rain Forest Sawmill take no responsibility for subsequent downgrade due to storage, drying, customer handling, etc.
