Project Description:

Direct Cedar Supplies had the honour of contributing to the preservation of a century-old U.S. Forest Service cabin, a historic structure nestled deep within a forested reserve. This 100-year-old cabin holds great cultural and architectural value and required materials that would match its original character while providing modern durability.

To support this restoration, we provided premium Western Red Cedar Hand-Split & Resawn Shakes, known for their natural beauty, exceptional weather resistance, and traditional look. The DCS cedar shakes helped restore the cabin’s original rustic charm while ensuring long-term protection against the elements.

Our cedar products were chosen for their proven performance in heritage and remote applications—providing the durability and authenticity required for a restoration of this significance. We are proud to have played a part in preserving American heritage with sustainable, high-quality materials.

Highlights:

• Restored to match original architectural style
• Premium #1 Blue Label Western Red Cedar Shakes
• Enhanced weather resistance and longevity
• Sustainably sourced and naturally beautiful

Direct Cedar Supplies is proud to support heritage conservation across North America by supplying high-grade cedar products for restorations like this one.
