Wilson Lumber Company, Inc. keeps a large and well-rounded Cypress inventory to supply you with what you need, when you need it, at a reasonable price.  Prompt delivery is available virtually anywhere from our central location in Memphis, Tennessee.

Cypress is superbly workable, easily installed, and readily finished.  It holds paint well and is in the group of woods offering the highest resistance to the elements.  Given a suitable surface treatment, well-seasoned Cypress lumber has little tendency to warp, twist, or cup and offers good nail-holding ability.  It is the choice today for a wide variety of decorative and/or practical applications, interior and exterior.  Perfect for applications that require aesthetic appeal and atmosphere practicality, Cypress is one of the most versatile woods available.  
 
With its legendary hardiness and durability, Cypress wood lends elegance to any home, business, institution or recreational setting.  It serves myriad applications outside the home, including fencing, decking, sidings, exterior trim, shutters, window boxes, gazebos, and landscape design elements.  Other recommended uses include:  fishing piers and boat houses, fishing and hunting lodges (both exterior and interior), restaurants, churches, offices, and meeting rooms.
 
We warrant our Cypress to be dried to 13-18% moisture content when it leaves our yard.  Before installation, Cypress must be stored under conditions that will maintain this moisture content.  Depending on its end use, dry Cypress should be properly primed or sealed before installation to prevent moisture absorption.
