Cedar & Building Materials for Every DFW Project
Dallas Cedar specialises in a complete range of outdoor building materials selected for durability, beauty, and performance in the North Texas climate. Both our Garland and Arlington locations carry full inventory.
Cedar Lumber
Known for its resistance to rot and insects, cedar is an ideal choice for Texas weather. It’s commonly used for outdoor structures, adding both beauty and resilience.
Cedar Decking Boards
Smooth-sanded cedar decking stays cooler underfoot, resists warping in extreme Texas heat, and takes stain exceptionally well. Ideal for pool areas, elevated patios, and backyard retreats. Composite decking also available for low-maintenance builds.
Pergola & Patio Cover Lumber
Hand-selected cedar beams, posts, and trim profiles for pergolas, arbors, and attached patio covers. Outdoor living is one of the fastest-growing project types across North Texas, and cedar is the preferred material for its natural performance in harsh Texas sun.
Douglas Fir Structural Lumber
For structural applications where strength is the priority, Douglas Fir is the contractor's choice. Strong, straight-grained, and ideal for load-bearing beams, subframe construction, and elevated deck systems. Stocked in a range of dimensional sizes at both locations.
Cedar Siding & Exterior Trim
Bevel siding, channel siding, and trim profiles for rustic farmhouse exteriors, board-and-batten accents, and decorative wall finishes. Cedar insulates naturally, resists dimensional change with temperature swings, and accepts stain, paint, or clear finish with equal ease.
Fasteners, Hardware & Supplies
Complete your full bill of materials in one stop. We carry Simpson Strong-Tie connectors, stainless and hot-dipped galvanized fasteners, gate hardware, post anchors, deck screws, fence staples, stains, and sealants for wood protection in the Texas climate.

Why Cedar Is the Right Choice for Texas Builds
Texas weather puts building materials to the test — 100°F+ summers, humidity surges, and relentless UV exposure. Western Red Cedar thrives in these conditions.
🛡️ Naturally Rot & Insect Resistant
Cedar's natural oils repel moisture and insects without chemical pressure treatment — safer near pools, gardens, and play areas.
🌡️ Thermally Stable in Texas Heat
Cedar expands and contracts less than treated pine in temperature extremes, reducing splitting, cupping, and nail pop over time.
❄️ Cool to the Touch
Cedar's cellular structure traps air, making it naturally insulating — cooler underfoot than composite or metal in direct summer sun.
📅 30+ Year Service Life
Properly sealed cedar structures in DFW consistently last 20–30+ years, often outlasting pressure-treated pine by a significant margin.
🎨 Takes Stain Beautifully
Cedar accepts stain and sealant exceptionally well. Annual or biannual maintenance preserves color and extends service life indefinitely.
✂️ Custom Milling Available
Non-standard dimensions? Our Waco milling facility produces custom profiles and specialty cuts for architectural and custom home builds.
