Porch Floor and Rail
Niece Lumber combines classic porch options with revolutionary porch floor technology of today. Featuring Mahagony (Dark Red Meranti), Douglas Fir and synthetic options, Niece Lumber has something for any porch project.
Vertical Grain Douglas Fir porch flooring dates back to the oldest homes in our area. Widely used and accepted, this tongue and groove board domestic porch option provides homeowners and builders an economical choice when replacing defective porch boards. Niece Lumber stocks fir porch flooring in 1 x 4 and 5/4 x 4 can be special ordered. Proper installation techniques can preserve the longevity of fir porch flooring. Coating all six sides (top, bottom, tongue, groove, end and end) with a quality exterior primer or clear sealer before installation is necessary. Top coating this product with a high quality latex paint or oil finish after installation is recommended. Vertical Grain Douglas Fir porch flooring is the choice for customers demanding a domestic harvested and milled product. Douglas Fir products are sourced from parts of the Pacific Northwest, Idaho and British Columbia.
Dark Red Meranti porch flooring, also know as Mahagony porch flooring has emerged over the past 20 years as an alternative to fir porch flooring. Not a true Mahagony, Meranti is harvested in Malaysia. Although slightly harder, the Dark Red Meranti shares similar decay resistance attributes as Douglas Fir. Do not settle for lower cost alternatives such as light red Meranti. Light red Meranti is more susceptible to rot and decay.
* Dark Red Meranti is currently out of stock and is now replaced with Red Balua "Batu Ultimate Decking". Specific information on this product can be found here
Synthetic porch flooring, Niece Lumber has access to many porch flooring options in material that does not require much maintenance. Options from Wolf Building Products, Gossen, Aeratis and Azek lead the way.
