We here at Exotic Hardwoods are dedicated to procuring the world's most rare and beautiful hardwoods.  The company has been in operation for sixteen years, and the warehouse is stocked with what might be the widest selection anywhere.  We enjoy our small family-run business in large part because we enjoy working with you - our enthusiastic woodworking customer.  Tell us what you want and we go to work to find just the right piece.  We pick and choose the way you would if you were here doing it yourself.  In most cases we ship within a day or two of receiving your order.  Our prices are low because we import sawmill direct (or buy wholesale bulk).  Check out the discounts and guarantee - you're covered!  The "specials" offer big savings and the odds-and-ends are an inexpensive alternative to lumber.  Call & use our (800) number to place an order.  We look forward to hearing from you!

Our Guarantee: We offer exchanges, credits, and refunds on any wood that isn't satisfactory.   Send it back with a note explaining what's wrong and what you'd like us to do.   Don't send back wood which has been cut, sliced, or otherwise worked on.   Return shipping is at your expense.  We'll pay for the shipping back to you if it's an exchange.  Wood returns must be postmarked for return within 7 days of receipt, and properly packaged.  Returned wood affects discounts.

~ Need to Knows before Ordering: ~

How close will we come to your "minimum" dimensions?  We try to come within 12 inches of your specified length, & within a couple of inches of your specified width.  We may do better but don't hold us to it!  Figure on boards being bigger than what you ask for!

Note on Extra-Wides:
We may increase by 15% the price of any board that we consider to be "extra-wide" (average 6"+).  If you don't specify a minimum width, you won't be surcharged.  We won't surcharge a board without attempting to contact you about it before we ship.

Note on Thickness:
Boards are measured "in the rough" before planning.  Since most boards are planed, actual thickness ends up being somewhat less than a full 1 or 2 inches.  Even so, board won't fall below .75" and 1.75" respectively.  This applies to squares and samples as well.

What is a board foot?
Multiply thickness x width x length and divide by 144 - the magic #.  For example, both a 1" x 6" x 24" and a 4" x 6" x 6" are 1 board foot.  You can calculate your Board Feet with our Board Foot Calculator!
