    Looking for lumber in Powhatan Virginia

    Does anyone know a good reasonable source for hard wood around Powhatan Virginia?

    I am going to build a book case and was looking for Red Oak. Looking for kiln dried, could be rough sawn.

    Siewers for sure. Lumber Sales down on 17th St. if you are buying a large amount.

    Bill, Northland is the far better option if you need any quantity, or if you can simply swing a trip towards Charlottesville. Their pricing is cheaper and their selection is much greater.

    I buy from Siewers due to convenience, but for future projects I plan to hit Northland. For that matter, Woodcraft in Richmond has started stocking a lot more wood lately. I don't know if their pricing is any good, but worth a phone call.

    I don't know about the Richmond market, but I go to NFP in Troy. I can spend all day there if I wanted, picking through the stacks, and they don't mind! Nice folks too.
