Q: Do you carry the screws?
Q: What type of screw should I use?
A: Yes. We carry OEM quality screws with cutting threads. We offer 2", 2-1/2", 3", 3-1/2" and 4" lengths.
Which screw size is right for me? Depends on the thickness of your decking material - use 2" screws for 1-1/8", 2-1/2" for 1-3/8" and 6/4, 3" for 7/4 and 8/4 rough, 3-1/2" for 8/4 rough when you want a little extra length, 4" for 12/4 or 3" rough.
There is some flexibility as well, depending on your under structure, joist material and thickness, etc.
It's usually safe to have a minimum of 7/8" to 1" longer screws than the thickness of your decking.
We keep inventory on all popular standard length screws so you can replace screws exactly as the manufacturer designed the original trailer.
Q: Do I need to treat my floor?
A: Certainly treating your floor with a high quality oil finish will extend the life of your floor and make it look great. And we always recommend you protect your investment.

Q: What species of wood do you recommend? What species do you carry?
A: Apitong is the best - practically all OEM's use for the toughest outdoor applications. We only offer the best - durable and dense, Apitong.
Q: Where are you based out of?
A: Our offices are in Forest Grove, OR - with warehouses in Memphis, Forest Grove, Atlanta & more.
Q: Can I pick up my order?
Q: Does that cost?
A: We are more than willing to offer Will Call pick up for our customers. It still takes us a day or two to pull an order so please allow for plenty of time. Occasionally, customers just show up at the warehouse - that won't work - you have to order well in advance. There is no shipping charge for Will Call orders.
Q: How quickly can you ship?
A: Provided we have the material in stock, 1-2 days is typical; but sometimes, we do get backed up. We will confirm expected ship date when you place your order.
Q: What is transit time?
A: 5 days to 10 days, depending on distance from warehouse. If you are located within a few hundred miles from one of our warehouses, shipping can be as fast as 3 days.
Q: Can I request my lengths?
A: Yes, absolutely - there is a text box you can use to enter your requested lengths when you order online. Or you can just call in and make a length request. Or, after you order online, just give us a call to pick lengths. Need to note lengths run between 8'-24' in foot long increments and stock will vary so check before ordering if requesting a length.
Q: Do you cut to length?
A: No. All of our material is full length at a minimum. Most pieces are 1" to 2" over in length.
Q: Will you rip specific widths for starter or finish boards?
A: No. We cannot rip boards for you. We suggest using a table saw with a good quality carbide tipped blade and a straight fence. A cabinet grade saw with a minimum 3 HP motor works great for anything up to 2" thick. If the fence is misaligned, the hardwood will bind up and burn while cutting - alignment of the fence is the key to ripping quickly without burning.
Q: Do you charge a cancelation fee if I change my mind after I place the order?
A: If you cancel the order by emailing us back or calling within 24 hours of placing the order, there is no cancelation fee. After 24 hours we charge a 10% restocking fee to cover the handling of material to put it back into inventory.
