About Us

For over 40 years, BBS Timbers has been delivering exceptional timber solutions, but it’s our people and the relationships we build that truly set us apart. Established in Auckland in 1985, our family-owned business has grown to include facilities in Whangārei (pictured above) and Christchurch, serving customers right across New Zealand with care and dedication.

As a third-generation business, we are proud to continue a legacy of craftsmanship, trust, and expertise. Our team of 60 is the cornerstone of our success, bringing centuries of collective experience and a customer-first approach to every project. It’s their passion and commitment to building strong, lasting relationships that have earned us a reputation for excellence.

We’ve grown our range of timbers to serve industries including architecture, building, joinery, cabinet making and boat-building, always with the goal of understanding and meeting the unique needs of every customer. Whether you’re crafting architectural details, tackling a residential project, or creating something one-of-a-kind, you can count on our people to deliver not just materials but the support and expertise to make it happen.
