Father-Daughter Duo
Lee and Caroline McInnis work together to organically grow their family business.
We believe in putting our customers first, to provide solutions and help advise them throughout their projects. Our fair pricing and transparency has built us a reputation of trust. We treat others the way we want to be treated. We work hard and play hard!
Shiplap “without the lap” By popular demand, we began producing our own style of ‘shiplap’. We have sold more than 250,000 square feet in the last year to home owners, crafters, contractors and real estate investors. This wood is unique because of it’s 3/8” nominal thickness. It’s not the same ole stuff from Lowe’s or Home Depot. It is thin and lightweight, ideal for walls and ceilings, alike. At 5.5” wide, it is the perfect width to cover your area. The length is 12’ long. The wood we offer is premium, hand selected and repurposed, white pine or white fir. Beautiful grain and bandsaw texture. Many customers love the natural color of the wood, others paint or stain the wood to their liking. The wood is soft and you can use a palm sander to quickly sand the surface, if necessary. For tips, contact us to coach you through your new shiplap project.
We are based out of Azle, Texas, where our prices our lowest ($.99/ sqft). We also have units in Salado, Georgetown, and Austin, Texas. We charge a few cents more at these locations to cover transportation costs ($1.08-$1.20/ sqft). Lee’s brother Alan opened up a unit in Colorado Springs, Colorado in mid February, 2018 ($1.20-$1.45/ sqft). We deliver and can ship nationwide. To date, we have provided lumber products to 20+ states.
With Lee’s extensive experience of wood working over the last 4 decades, he has passed down a wealth of knowledge to his daughter. Caroline is a quick learner and leverages the technology world to launch them forward in business.
The American Lumbermill Co began in Azle, Texas, in 1987, Lee built custom cabinets and furniture for 100’s of clients in DFW. He went on to create reclaimed wood flooring from industrial pallet wood with his brother Alan (see photo above). Though he no longer does custom cabinets, the wood flooring is still available.
