Sinker Pine is a recovered virgin growth wood that has been buried in the muddy bottoms of northwest Florida’s rivers for many years, and has been retrieved for use in both historic restoration and new construction. The logs would be marked with a number or symbol to determine ownership and differentiate the lumber, with many still visible on the logs today. Sinker Pine is used as rough lumber, tongue & groove, trim, molding and beams.

Sinker Cypress is first generation, river retrieved lumber that is also known as deadhead cypress, river reclaimed cypress, river recovered cypress, old growth cypress, and virgin cypress. This quality old growth lumber was cut from 1890 to 1930, and then rafted down the rivers of northwest Florida to different sawmills in the region. Sinker Cypress is used primarily for interior and exterior paneling, tongue & groove, trim, ceilings, moldings, table tops, and beams.

The Pecky process manifests when the wood becomes riddled with fungus, eventually resulting in small, typically circular pockets through out the lumber. Since this fungus typically develops in older Cypresses, the wood is becoming more and more sparse in availability. This rare, durable wood is a favorite among those wanting a higher-quality, decay resistant lumber. After Pecky Sinker is shaped for project use, the wood gleams with an attractive depth that has earned itself a reputation of being unmatched in quality.
