A third-generation family business

Meltz Lumber was started by Emil Meltz, Sr. in 1946, producing 2,500 board feet a day on a handset sawmill. Today, Ghent Wood Products and Meltz Lumber mill roughly 16,000 board feet of hardwoods a day — from raw logs to flooring, siding, paneling, slabs, and custom millwork.

What we make

Siding

Siding

The right exterior siding sets your home apart. Choose from a variety of wood sidings — some rustic, some refined — and finish with a natural stain to bring out the wood's beauty, or leave it natural.

Paneling

Paneling

All of our paneling is kiln-dried and planed, available in a variety of widths and ready to install with minimal finish work. We can also make custom paneling from any of our kiln-dried stock.

Custom Millwork

Custom Millwork

Our custom mill shop reproduces the unique moldings your project requires — we keep molder knives in stock or custom-cut them for a perfect match. We also specialize in glue-ups, from stair treads to large table tops.

Flooring

Flooring

All of our flooring is kiln-dried, tongue-and-groove, planed, and back-relieved for stability — ready to install with minimum finish work. Boards are not end-matched, so installers can trim to fit.
