Mesquite Flooring
Mesquite Wood Flooring - UNFINISHED OR PRE-FINISHED
Mesquite Flooring is both Rustic and extremely elegant at the same time. It has the
rare quality of being at home in an old town tavern setting or the centerpiece in any modern commercial
project.
This blend of “rustic elegance” allows Mesquite hardwood flooring to fit into almost any wood oriented design
scheme. From Rustic and Cozy to sophisticated and modern, a Texas Mesquite floor can set your project apart
making it both unique and beautiful.

The American Hardwood Association classifies Mesquite as REPLENISHABLE. Our mesquite lumber is
harvested from rescued or re-claimed mesquite trees on ranches and farms throughout South
Texas. Clearing land free of charge saves farmers and ranchers money and makes practical and
efficient use of a wood that would otherwise be destroyed. That makes our production method a
"GREENER" alternative to imported exotics.

Sekula Sawmilling works directly with ranchers to harvest the cleared Mesquite Wood. Our
mesquite is harvested and milled right here in the great State of Texas and delivered to your
jobsite, straight from the mill. No middle man means the best possible prices and
environmentally streamlined production.

Mesquite Wood is A HARDWOOD CONTENDER!
Teak, Mahogany and Mesquite are equally ranked as the most stable hardwoods in the world. Better than Oak!
From wet to dry Mesquite wood loses less than 5% of
its overall volume while other woods lose in excess of 15%. This means a mesquite hardwood floor is much
less likely to move during extreme weather changes. That stability to the consumer means this wood will
perform well in any climate hot or cold, humid or dry. The wood does not degrade in any weather
condition.
Anyone, anywhere in the world, can use Mesquite wood to enhance the beauty of their hardwood flooring project
and expect it to perform when properly cared for.

The Residual Moisture of our mesquite wood after the furnace drying process ranges from 6 -12%.
The mesquite wood remains in the dryer for 12-14 days to ensure indigenous wood insects are
killed.
|
|
During installation we recommend gluing mesquite wood flooring instead of nailing it as nails
may cause the wood to split and crack. This is especially true for #1 and Better mesquite
grade.

The logs produced from a Mesquite tree are usually much shorter than other species since the tree branches curl
in many instances. This makes it harder to find long enough branches to produce longer planks, making such
planks a rarity. Commonly available lengths of Mesquite Flooring depend on the
width, for example:
3" wide strips average 26" - 30" in length
4" wide strips average 30" - 34" in length
5" wide strips average 34" - 38" in length
We can mill longer lengths but at additional cost depending on width and mesquite wood grade.
