About our process

Valley View Industries believes in making quality cedar products. These products start as hand selected logs. The logs are cut to length for best recovery and loaded into our sawmill line. We are unique that the sawmilling and construction of our products are done in one facility. Our team is always communicating and continuously improving the entire manufacturing process. This leads to on time, beautiful products that are made to last.

Rough Sawn Cedar Lumber

Our lumber is sawn with band saws for an attractive and consistent appearance. Unless otherwise specified our rough sawn lumber is “green” meaning it has not been kiln dried, kiln drying is available on request. The rough sawn lumber is full dimensional, meaning a rough sawn 2”x4” is a full 2”x4” and not 1 ½ “ x 3 ½” like our smooth finished lumber. Our rough sawn cedar comes in a variety of grades from clear, select (STK), #2 and #3 grade. We cut lumber in 2’ increments from 6’ to 16’ long, we also offer material from 18’ to 26’ long at an additional charge.  Most common sizes and lengths are stocked in our customer self serve area including 1×4, 1×6, 1×8, 2×4, 2×6, 2×8, 4×4 and 6×6. Other sizes are available.

Smooth Cedar Lumber

All our smooth lumber goes through our dry kiln to reach a desirable moisture content that will machine well and be dimensionally stable. The dried material goes through our moulder which planes every side in one pass. We process over 10,000 feet of material per day in any of the below profiles. We make moulding knives in house, please inquire for custom profiles like bead and cove or handrail stock. Any of the profiles are available in clear or select grades.
