About Us

Hello, and welcome to Tweed River Timbers! I’m Peter Sutton, the proud owner of this family-owned business, located on the banks of the beautiful Tweed River. Here at Tweed River Timbers, we specialize in high-quality, kiln-dried timber sourced from salvaged logs, and we’re committed to providing sustainable, locally sourced timber products that will stand the test of time.

Our Story

Timber has always been a part of my life. From a young age, I’ve had a deep respect for the craftsmanship and beauty of wood. Over the years, I saw how much potential there was in salvaging logs that would otherwise go to waste. This passion for creating something beautiful out of discarded trees led me to start Tweed River Timbers. Our business is built on the belief that the best products come from a deep respect for both the environment and the craft.

Our Commitment to Quality and Sustainability

At Tweed River Timbers, quality and sustainability are at the heart of everything we do. Each piece of timber we offer is carefully selected, kiln-dried to perfection, and milled with precision. We believe in giving new life to salvaged timber, reducing waste and contributing to a more sustainable future. This commitment ensures that our customers receive timber that is not only beautiful but also durable and long-lasting. Even our waste is used for biofuel to help power green energy. Coming soon we are looking to produce biochar from our waste, which captures carbon and stores it in the ground for hundreds of years to come benefiting the planet for the next generation.

Our Range of Timbers

We offer a wide selection of timbers, each with its own unique characteristics. Whether you're drawn to the rich aroma of Red Cedar, the strength of Tallowwood, or the beauty of Camphor Laurel, we’ve got something to suit every project. Our timber is perfect for everything from fine furniture and cabinetry to indoor and outdoor structures. We pride ourselves on the versatility and beauty of our products, and we're always here to help you choose the right timber for your needs.

Why Choose Us?

What sets Tweed River Timbers apart is not just the quality of our timber but our hands-on, personal approach. As a small, local business, we take great pride in working closely with our customers to ensure they get exactly what they need. Whether you’re looking for premium timber for a custom project or need milling or leveling services, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

We’re passionate about the timber we work with and the stories behind each piece. We believe that timber is more than just a building material—it’s a connection to the land, to craftsmanship, and to nature. We’re excited to share this passion with you, and we look forward to being part of your next project.

Thank you for choosing Tweed River Timbers. Let us help you bring your vision to life with the finest quality timber and expert services.

Sincerely,
Peter Sutton
Owner, Tweed River Timbers
