MILL TO ORDER
Buffalo Lumber specializes in Milled to Order Pre-Finished - Primed, Painted, or Stained - Cedar Siding, Redwood Siding and Knotty Pine Paneling shipped direct from the mill located closest to You.
We do Not stock inventory. We create each project individually. When you factor in setting up the mill, packaging for transit and shipping we become a good value to you at about the $5000 mark. If that is not in the budget we are not a good fit for your project.
WHY QUOTE IN SQFT?
The lumber industry is constantly changing and sizes of finished products are changing so we quote everything (except Trim and Lumber) in terms of SQUARE FEET. That is a 12 inch by 12 inch area on the wall to be covered when the siding is put together. This eliminates the need to convert lineal footage to square footage in a world where the size is not constant.
OUR GOAL
We are experts trained in wood grade, performance and finish applications. We listen to your project goals, help you find the wood that is best suited to achieve them and then make sure you get what you expected and what you paid for!

EDUCATED WOOD DECISIONS
A 15 minute consultation with Buffalo Lumber could save you EIGHTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
It is TRUE. We saved one of our customers $80,000 over what "other experts" were telling them by understanding the priorities of the decision maker.
Our expertise lies in communication. We know people and we know wood. We can show you the various options available to you and give accurate ideas of cost associated with those options.
Our job is not to convince you to buy wood from us. Our job is to determine your wood priorities and prescribe a successful method to achieve them.
We point out the pitfalls associated with each option you consider and allow you to make an EDUCATED DECISION.
100% commitment to the long term success of your project means- We are not always the best price option up front. Buffalo Lumber specializes in doing it the "right" way not the cheapest way. Long term success often costs more up front.
We are not less expensive if your local lumber yard has the wood in stock. We become a good deal for things the local guys have to "order in".
We are not a bidding machine. We understand that everyone shops for the best lumber value. Our position on charging for quotes is that we are not charging for quotes at all- we are charging for the "due diligence" to do the job right.
Every Buffalo Lumber project is evaluated and carefully examined for potential problems and long term success. If you get a Buffalo Lumber quote it means your chances of success are very high because we won't even quote you if you are not serious about the performance and care of the wood.
