Small, independent sawmills assures Carlisle gets the best wide plank floor boards

You might wonder how we select and process the trees that will become the boards that will become the floors we sell here at Carlisle.

In today’s “grow big or die” driven economy, it has become harder and harder for small, independent sawmills to survive. We use small, independent sawmills because we know they can assure us of getting the best boards cut from the best parts of the tree. The smaller sawmills can meet our special needs and our demands for excellence. Over the years, we have built a network of small, independent sawmills and built relationships with the sawyers who work at them. We consider them part of the Carlisle family. These sawyers carefully check each plank they cut for us, up and down and over and under, before they send it along for us to use.

Our boards are also the longest and widest you can find on the market. We also happen to believe they are the prettiest. Here’s a story about just one of the small sawmills we use.
