Domestic Hardwood Lumber

Premium Domestic Hardwood Lumber in Los Angeles

When your project demands wood with proven character, domestic hardwoods deliver. Grown and milled in North America, these species have been the backbone of fine furniture, cabinetry, flooring, and architectural millwork for generations - and for good reason. They're stable, workable, and beautiful in ways that no manufactured material can replicate.

At House of Hardwood, we carry a deep and carefully selected inventory of domestic hardwood lumber at our Los Angeles yard. Whether you need rough-sawn boards for a live-edge table, S4S stock for cabinetry, or wide slabs for a statement piece, we have the material and the expertise to match you with the right wood.

Our Domestic Hardwood Species

We stock a full range of North American hardwoods, including White Oak, Walnut, Maple, Cherry, Ash, Red Oak, Poplar, and more. Each species is available in a variety of thicknesses, widths, and grades. Custom milling, straight-lining, and thickness planing are available in-house.

Why Choose Domestic Hardwood?

Domestic hardwoods offer a unique combination of availability, sustainability, and sheer beauty. Because they're sourced closer to home, they're typically more affordable than exotic imports while still offering exceptional grain character and durability. Many of our domestic species are also available as FSC-certified lumber for builders and designers with sustainability requirements.

Whether you're working with walnut, white oak, maple, cherry, ash, red oak, or poplar, our team can help you select boards with the right figure, color consistency, and moisture content for your application.

Sizing

Here at the House Of Hardwood, we sell most of our lumber by volume, using Board Feet.

Volume = Thickness" x Width" x Length" / 144 = bf

Importantly, the hardwood measuring system bases the thickness based on rough cutting done at the lumber mill, so all fractions indicate the ROUGH thickness.

We sell our hardwood S2S (Surfaced 2 Sides) – This means the boards have been planed down from their rough cut form to be flat. The edges are still not straight at this point, but we can straighten them up for you!

This S2S operation removes 3/16" therefore it is important to note net thicknesses:

Rough Thickness	Net Thickness (S2S)
4/4 Lumber	13/16"
5/4 Lumber	1 1/16"
6/4 Lumber	1 5/16"
8/4 Lumber	1 13/16"
10/4 Lumber	2 5/16"
12/4 Lumber	2 13/16"
16/4 Lumber	3 13/16"
