Lumber - Home Store or Lumber Yard?
Bought a house last year and we knew there were some things that the previous owners had neglected. And now it is time to give the deck some attention. The deck was painted but it is peeling. So, I tried to power wash but that only worked somewhat. Some of the loose stuff came off while some of it is still stuck on there. Plus, some of the wood is not in the greatest shape. So, we decided to just replace the decking planks.
In the past, I have bought pressure treated wood from Home Depot and Lowes for various projects such as privacy fencing, but it is not always the greatest quality and you have to go through it to find decent boards. Since these deck planks will be 16' X 2" X 6", I am going to see about having them delivered. And that means that I won't be picking out my wood. Does anyone have recommendations for where to buy the lumber? In Topeka, we have Home Depot, Lowes, Menards, Sutherlands, ABC, and a place called McCray Lumber and Millwork. |
