Our Story: Quality Craft Lumber Since 1998

The Timberline Heritage

Timberline Lumber Company was founded in 1998 in Asheville, North Carolina, by Matt Gryder and Russ Scruggs. What began as a local venture to supply Western North Carolina with high-quality specialty lumber has grown into a trusted wholesale distribution partner for contractors across the Southeast.

For over 25 years, our mission has been simple: to provide the absolute best building materials—from premium tropical hardwoods to reliable domestic framing—backed by the highest quality mills and unmatched service. We remain a family-owned business, dedicated to treating every customer, whether they’re building a backyard deck or a multi-unit development, with the same level of personal attention.

Built on Partnerships, Focused on Quality

Premium Softwoods (1998):Our commitment to quality began with foundational partnerships, including early relationships with mills like Pyramid Lumber in Montana and Ray White Lumber in Arkansas, ensuring a steady stream of high-quality Spruce, Lodgepole Pine, Ponderosa Pine, and Yellow Pine.

Tropical Hardwood Supply (1999):We also maintain one of the Southeast’s largest and most reliable channels of high-quality tropical hardwoods, including Ipe, Cumaru, and Garapa, catering to wholesale volume needs across NC, SC, TN and parts of GA, VA, KY & AL.
Eastern White Pine (2016):We deepened our specialty offerings by partnering with industry leaders like Britton Lumber in New Hampshire, securing the best quality Eastern White Pine for interiors and custom millwork.

We offer the same exceptional quality to everyone, with pricing structured to give professional builders or homeowners the competitive edge they need.
