I'm having some custom garage doors built and I can have my choice of redwood or cedar for the same price. I haven't seen samples of the redwood, but I've seen the cedar -- typical western red cedar with some tight knots. (I'm guessing the redwood will be straighter with fewer knots.)
Which has better decay resistance? I've been assuming redwood, but I figured I'd ask you folks (who presumably have more experience with this sort of thing :-)
