Cedar Supply for Austin, Atlanta, and Nashville
Western Red Cedar has been shaping outdoor spaces for generations, and it still knows how to make a project feel current.
Warm color, natural durability, and easy workability make Western Red Cedar lumber one of the most versatile materials builders can put on a job. Cedar can be used for siding, soffits, porch ceilings, decking, fences, pergolas, and architectural accents. It cuts and mills cleanly, takes stain well, and carries the same natural wood expression from exterior applications into covered and interior spaces.
Grade changes the character. Clear Cedar creates a refined, consistent surface, while Select Tight Knot Cedar brings more texture and natural variation. TimberTown can help match the grade to the application, custom mill the profile, and apply ProCoating before delivery—giving builders a more complete, install-ready package.
Builders in Austin often choose Western Red Cedar for soffits, porch ceilings, and outdoor living structures exposed to constant heat and sun. In Atlanta and Nashville, it is frequently specified for siding, ceilings, and architectural accents that must perform through humidity, seasonal swings, and extended installation schedules. Across all three markets, Cedar offers the workability and natural durability to support both modern and traditional designs
Siding & Soffits
Cedar is a trusted material for siding and soffits because it delivers natural warmth while maintaining a refined, architectural look.
One of cedar’s greatest strengths is its ability to carry the same material language across multiple surfaces. Using cedar for both siding and soffits allows designers and builders to create clean transitions, consistent reveals, and a unified finish without introducing visual breaks. This continuity is especially effective on custom homes where detailing and proportion play a major role in the overall design.
Custom Milling
Good cedar deserves good profiles. That’s where our milling comes in.
TimberTown offers custom milling across cedar and other natural wood products so builders can use the same material from floor to ceiling without compromising on detail. From clean-lined wall cladding and ceilings to soffits, trim, and architectural accents, our profiles are designed to support consistent reveals and sharp transitions throughout a project.
Builders in Austin, Atlanta, and Nashville lean on our milling when standard options fall short. Whether you’re recreating a profile, dialing in proportions, or keeping details consistent across elevations, our team helps deliver cedar that’s ready to install and easy to execute.
Rainier Plank® Cedar-Inspired Option
For projects that call for the warmth and linear rhythm of cedar with a more controlled, contemporary expression, Rainier Plank offers a cedar-inspired solution suited to modern architecture. Its consistency and refined surface treatment allow the material to read clean and intentional across both exterior and interior applications.
Rainier Plank is often selected when the design intent favors uniformity, repetition, and precision. Long, uninterrupted runs, tight reveals, and crisp transitions are easier to achieve, making it a strong choice for soffits, ceilings, accent walls, and modern siding.
Our team works closely with project teams in Austin, Atlanta, and Nashville to help determine which cedar-inspired solution best supports the overall design concept.
