How to Buy Southern Pine Floors when you live in Montana or Idaho

If you want to know how to buy southern pine floors, that is easy, just call you local lumber yard. But if you want to know how to get the best price on the ‘best’ Southern Pine floors, that is easier because you found us already.  Another key to this process is trust, finding a source that you can trust. Specifically, the grades such as #2 Knotty Southern Yellow Pine. If you are searching for this term on Google you will run into some “specialist”, and there you find “Select” #2 Knotty Southern Yellow Pine, $3.05 per sq foot.

Comparing Southern Pine

First of all, select indicates two things; one it has been hand selected and second, it adds cost. Select, of any grade should be perfect, right? Read the descriptions of other the so called pine specialist, they tell you there will be defects. That is unacceptable, our normal #2 has no defects they are sorted into #3 grade which we do not offer so please do not ask. The point, for .30 less you can get up to 40% heartwood and our best seller, 1 x 6 or the 1 x8  #2 Southern Yellow “Knotty” pine.

  • Drop siding (#105, #117, #119, #131)
  • Log cabin siding and Handrails.

Heart Pine too

The southern pine make the best prefinished floors

“New” Heart Pine is not new at all.

The word new in New Heart Pine alerts the buyer that this is not reclaimed or antique heart pine. Also known as heart pine, and even hard-pine, this classic species has been in our homes and building them since the Mayflower landed. Heart content, and therefore heartpine is created by age and species. The price pine floors should be about age and species. Age creates stability, stability and character not to mention heart wood. Our ‘Pine Like Wine’ idea make perfect sense but there is one variable ruining it all, advertising.

Classic clear coat #2 Knotty

Character of southern yellow #2 knotty pine with heart content from Longleaf Pine

Buying Knotty Pine from SYP Direct does not mean you are buying defects, our #2 grade is rustic not broken.  This differs from mill to mill depending on their customers and location. We use two sources, one heart pine on “normal” Southern Pine, both of them the best at what they do. Since 2016, we have delivered over 3 million square feet of flooring from our Alabama mill and our Louisiana Pine source is one we love to brag about as they can handle any volume order in up to 16′ boards. See Pinterest Pictures.

Not all Knotty the same

What is knotty pine answer given visual example

In 2023, we have already delivered floors to Idaho, California (3), Washington, South Dakota, Maine, Connecticut, Virginia, Maryland, New York and all over the south, just to name a few. Nationwide shipping with an A + rating from BBB is not easy to find, not in our business.

Southern Yellow Pine Direct offer homeowners the reliability of an A+ rated BBB company; the best quality, pricing and service bar none. We operate under an "old school" philosophy that the customer is always right. We make sure you are just that by educating and dispelling myths about Southern Pine and Heart Pine flooring.
Remember we are a mill to order manufacturer of unfinished and prefinished Southern Pine, including our speciality Heart Pine. Our lead times are normally about two weeks, with Hardwoods and Imports the lead times vary and that is an understatement. 2 days -2 months has bee the answer since COVID. But things are imporving, as White Oak prices continue to fall. (Jason Howard 9/9/2022)
