Tigerwood

Some materials fill a space. Tigerwood defines it.

Each board brings its own mix of warm amber, reddish-brown, and dramatic dark striping. The natural variation creates movement across decks, porches, siding, soffits, and custom architectural details without relying on an applied pattern. Tigerwood brings more than a bold look. This dense tropical hardwood has the strength and durability needed for demanding exterior applications. TimberTown stocks it kiln-dried rather than air-dried to support better stability and help reduce unwanted movement after installation.

Because Tigerwood’s color and contrast are the main event, the finish matters. A clear TimberTown ProCoating protects the surface from external factors and helps the wood develop a slower, more even patina. Clear coatings do not provide UV protection. To maintain more of the original color, we can apply a pigmented ProCoating that adds the UV protection the material needs.

Our Austin, Atlanta, and Nashville locations stock Tigerwood in multiple dimensions and lengths for projects throughout the Southeast.

Kiln-Dried Makes All the Difference

All hardwoods need time to acclimate to their new environments, and the process makes all the difference in how long your deck will last without warping or twisting. That's why all our tigerwood is kiln-dried instead of air-dried, ensuring our product will last longer and remain stable for the life of the project.
