vanMason Your Wood Dealer.

Think of us as your wood dealer — totally legal and ideally only needed once. We source the good stuff, then hand you the person who should be working with it.

Good wood. / Good work. / Fair numbers. / No bullshit.

The wood is perfect.
the pricing is unhinged.

We have been quoted twice for one deck in one week — nowhere near the same number. Here is what keeps happening.
02 — How it works

Three things
keep happening.

01

You want the wood.

Ipe, Cumaru, Garapa and other premium tropical hardwoods — the right grade, the right mill, at prices that don’t feel criminal.

02

You need someone to build it.

We don’t just know where to get it — we know who should be working with it. Need a contractor? We’ll make the introduction. This isn’t pine. It bites back.

03

The quotes make zero sense.

One guy says $20K. Another says $40K for basically the same thing.

Same deck. Same wood. Same week.

We don’t pretend to know everything. But we know good wood, quality work, and bullshit when we see it.

03 — Later

Then you
become the plug.

“Nice deck.” Them, over the fence

“Thanks. I got a guy.” You, insufferable now

The guy is us. Whether you share the number is entirely your business.

04 — The ask

Got a
project?

Deck. Fence. Cladding. Pergola. Something weird.

Tell us what you’re trying to build. We’ll tell you whether the number makes sense.

No newsletter. No drip campaign. One human, usually the same day.

Landed.

We’ll come back with real numbers and, if you need one, a builder who has cut this stuff before.
