Keyu Batu Deck

[leslie19 14]

Hi Everyone,

I am Leslie and am happy to be here. I think this is the great place to share and hear regarding building home and other related things.

When building a deck or fence in Calgary, the choice of wood is most important. Not only should it look good, it should also be durable and be able to withstand different temperature and moisture levels. Kayu Batu Hardwood meets all these requirements, and is an affordable and proven performer. An equally important decision is your choice of builder. It is important to hire an expert in building with Kayu Batu. Think First Construction are specialists in building with Kayu Batu.

From what I gather, "Keyu" (which is spelled incorrectly by the OP) is a branded name. "Batu" is a misnomer for SE Asian woods such as the meranti, shorea, balau, or "Philippine Mahogany".

Not the best hardwoods for exterior use.
