About Columbia Sawmill

We're a working Columbia-area sawmill. We mill people's own logs into lumber, slabs and beams, and we sell rough-sawn hardwood, slabs and mantel beams cut from local trees. Our mill is stationary, so the logs come to our yard and the wood goes home from here.

Who we are

Too many good trees around here end up as firewood or chips. A walnut that grew in a backyard for 70 years, or a white oak that came down in a spring storm, has a lot more to give than that. When someone brings us a log, we treat it as their tree, not just raw material: we talk through what they want from it and cut to that.

The mill and equipment

Our mill stays at the yard, set up and ready to saw. You bring the log; we do the rest.

Where the logs come from

Milling customers' own logs is the heart of what we do: yard trees, storm-downed trees and removals, sawn for the people who own them. Local tree crews can also bring us good trunks that would otherwise become firewood.

If you run a tree service, see our page for tree services.

Visit the yard

Send us a quote request and we'll reply with directions to the yard and when to come.

A first job with us usually goes like this. You send a few photos of your log with its diameter and length. We reply with what it could become and a price range. Once you've decided on boards, slabs, a beam or a mix, we agree on a cut list, you bring the log to the yard, and you come back to load up your wood. If you're buying rather than bringing a log, tell us the species and sizes you need, and we'll tell you what we have before you make the drive.

Message us before you come, whether you're bringing a log or looking for lumber, so we can have the right wood out for you. See our service area and pricing.
