How much will my project cost?
Our experienced staff estimates lumber and building materials for projects every day. We often estimate complete projects or cooperate with our contractor and remodeler customers.

Why does your lumber look so good?
Like with most other merchandise with lumber you get what you pay for. We still buy our material based on the desire to produce high quality projects and the contractors and remodelers who buy from us do so because they want to produce high quality projects as well. Most are either hands on or entered the building business through the carpentry trade. They have experienced the difference and because of their background and are in general fussy about what they use on your project. Whether it is lumber from the best mills in North America or the name brand building materials people trust, we at Top Notch seek the best when we buy material for your building projects.
