Choosing Cedar Deck Boards

Dimensions
- 2x6: The most common decking size
- 5/4x6: A thicker, premium option
- 2x4: For a more refined look
Grades
For decking, choose Select Tight Knot or Free of Box Heart for the best performance.

Apply a penetrating oil stain within two weeks of installation for best results.
