Grown for your imagination

Bring your design vision to life with beautiful timbers grown here in the Papamoa Hills, Bay of Plenty.

Now more than ever, New Zealand-grown timbers have an increasingly important role in our architecture and heritage.

In long-standing recognition of this, Summerhill Timbers have been planting, growing, and nurturing a range of hard and softwood specialty forests over the last 45 years.

As they reach maturity, our trees are hand-selected and milled without treatment to preserve their full strength and colour.

Enduring Character. Built with Summerhill Timbers.

Cut to Order

We mill premium-quality New Zealand-grown specialty timbers from our FSC-managed forests. Our timber is the natural choice for builders and architects who value sustainability and character.

We carefully dry and store our timbers, supplementing with selective summer harvests to bring new projects to life. Each timber has a unique colour and grain texture shaped by our coastal climate. We provide a sustainable local alternative to imported timber or composite materials. 

We supply three main timber species and offer straightforward, flexible solutions for creating standout timber features — whether you're after solid beams, custom flooring, wall linings, or bespoke features.

If you need high-quality timbers, contact us now and see how we can help.
