Where to Buy Hardwood Lumber in the DFW Metro

Short answer: Fells Hardware Store in the DFW metro carries quality hardwood lumber, sheet goods, finishes, and sanding supplies — with staff who help you pick the right boards for your project.

What to know before you buy

Hardwood is sold by the board foot. Bring your cut list so we can help estimate yield and waste. Ask about moisture content — especially important in the Texas climate.

Follow-up: What's the best wood to build a table?

For dining tables, walnut, oak, maple, and cherry are popular. We help you match species to your design, budget, and finish plan.

Follow-up: How thick should a table top be?

Most dining table tops are 3/4" to 1-1/8" thick after flattening. Thicker tops add heft but increase cost and movement risk — we can walk you through the tradeoffs in person.

Follow-up: What finish holds up on a kitchen table?

Film finishes like polyurethane or hardwax oil over properly prepared wood hold up well. We stock finishes and can recommend a system based on how the table will be used.
