Why Cedar Wood Furniture is Good for Outdoor Use
To All Our Valued Customers, Over the past few years, the Covid 19 Pandemic has forced us to adapt and change the way we do things on a day-to-day basis. Florida Lumber is no exception. To make sure that we remain strong and competitive in the market for the years to come, Florida Lumber has had to adjust and change our vision for the future. In the last 2 years, we have stopped selling Sheetrock and drywall products, roofing felt and roofing materials, and have even closed on Saturdays.
Over the last few months, we have been transitioning our way out of the door supply business so on August 31, 2022, our door shop will stop assembling doors. We will continue liquidating our doors from inventory until we are out of material.
Some customers have asked if we are closing or even moving locations. To set the story straight, we are not closing or selling the business and we are not moving. These changes are all part of our new vision and path to continue serving South Florida and increasing our footprint in the construction supply industry.
Our focus is going to be on Lumber, Construction Materials, Rebar Fabrication and Rebar Accessories. As we have liquidated some of the items that we don’t sell anymore we have created more space to buy a larger volume of our core items and pass on the savings to our customers.
In the next year you will start seeing changes that will help improve our ability to serve you, our customers. We appreciate your business and your patience as Florida Lumber’s new vision becomes reality.

Searching for the best outdoor furniture can at times turn out to be a daunting task, especially if you are looking for furniture that should last in your home for an extended period. There are several considerations to weigh when buying outdoor furniture: For instance, this furniture needs to be resistant to the ravages of nature if you are to use it over an extensive period. Cedar furniture is often regarded as a viable option where outdoor furniture is concerned. Read on to find out why cedar wood furniture is good for outdoor use.
Resistant to Bugs and Decay
When you opt for cedar furniture, you’ll never have to worry about it deteriorating due to insects. This high-quality furniture will not be prone to wear and tear, including attacks from bugs and other insects. Since this is solid wood furniture, it is also not likely to decay easily, even when exposed to water or moisture over an extended period of time. The natural oils in cedar wood prevent it from being easily destroyed by bugs or by bad weather conditions.
Ages Gracefully
A remarkable feature of cedar wood furniture is that it tends to age gracefully. As the years go by, it slowly transforms into a beautiful silver or grey color and looks as wonderful as it did when you first bought it. This is true even for cedar wood furniture items that are red in color. As it keeps growing older, the red hue begins to fade and gives way to a sophisticated grey or silver. If your house is painted white, then such furniture items will look beautiful when kept outside in the garden or in the patio.
Not Prone to Sagging and Warping
Warping and sagging are problems that you shouldn’t experience when you decide to utilize cedar wood furniture at home. This wood is highly durable and is easily resistant to sagging and warping. Once you buy a piece of cedar wood furniture, you can expect to use it for at least 20-30 years before you feel the need to get a new furniture piece.
Well Insulated
The tiny air pockets in cedar wood protect it against the damage typically caused by temperature and humidity. Therefore, even if it happens to be exposed to very high temperatures, it won’t feel warm or hot to touch. You can safely place your hands over the furniture or sit on it during even in the hottest of summer months without feeling a sense of discomfort.
Protects your Home from the Winter Winds
Cedar wood furniture is almost as solid as oak wood furniture and can keep strong gusts of wind away from your home when it is placed outdoors in the patio. This would be especially beneficial in the winter months, when the cold winter wind can be drastic and wreak havoc if allowed to enter the house through windows and other cracks. When you have cedar wood furniture placed in your patio, it will direct the winds away, keeping you safe and warm during the coldest times of the year.
Low Maintenance
The low maintenance required by cedar furniture is another appealing feature, especially when it is used outdoors. You do not have to spend an exorbitant amount of money to keep your furniture in good condition. Also, the fact that it repels insects, is resistant to humidity and not prone to fungal growth enables you to use this furniture in your home for an extended period. It will be quite some time before this furniture begins to show signs of wear and tear.
Thus, buying cedar lumber furniture can be a wonderful investment to make, especially if you are looking to decorate your home’s outdoor with furniture items that are not only sophisticated and elegant in appearance, but also highly durable.
