What Sets Us Apart
Personal Service & Consulting mindset, Not Sales Teams
When you call Durable Hardwoods, you speak directly to Matt or a member of the consulting team – not a call centre or sales team. With 50+ years of combined industry experience, we provide expert consultation for our project that retail chains and large suppliers simply can’t match.
Specification Timber, Not Commodity Stock
While other suppliers focus on standard retail lines, we specialise in sourcing timber to your exact specifications. Our timber isn’t commodity stock found at hardware stores – it’s carefully selected from our network of 40+ specialist mills and international suppliers, including our specialty Australian Sourced Cedar Pine and premium Merbau.
Job-Lot Pricing Philosophy
Unlike suppliers with rigid price lists, we price each project individually based on your specific quality, quantity, and specification requirements. This tailored approach often delivers better value than standardised retail pricing.
Mill Samples
We can provide you with samples from our mills, so you can be confident in the timber quality.
Never Say Never Approach
We don’t say something isn’t available just because we don’t stock it. Our extensive mill network and years of industry relationships mean we can source unusual species and specifications that larger retailers won’t touch.
Australian & International Timber Expertise
We prioritise Australian timber from Australian mills wherever suitable for your application, particularly our Australian Sourced Cedar Pine. When Australian hardwoods aren’t appropriate, we source premium international species like Merbau through verified sustainable programs. We’ll provide honest advice about the best timber choice for your project.
