  • Welcome to Compton Lumber in Seattle. Our company has been serving Washington and Alaska since 1892. We specialize in Commercial and Industrial building materials, high quality hardwood lumber, plywood & beautiful moldings –This year we are celebrating our 120th year in business. Compton Lumber has been at the fore-front of the recycle curve, selling lumber from responsibly managed forests, and stocking environmentally friendly products. While many businesses want you to believe they are “green” we just do it. We currently stock: • Cherry • Maple • Red Oak • Poplar • WalnutAll of these come in 25” width, and we inventory some of them in 36” widths.The lengths range in 39” to 120”, but we don’t carry every length and every width in all species.We are now stocking 1-1/2 inch thick laminated tops that can be used for table tops, cutting boards, counter tops, workbench top or any other use you can think of.Some of the other products we carry: • Plywood • Roofing • Plastic laminates • Plasterboard • Moldings • Particleboard Products • Millwork Service • Metal Products • Lumber • Flooring • Decking • Insulation • Hardboard • Doors • Concrete Products • Display Parts • Stair Parts Celebrating our 120th year, Compton Lumber Company continues to maintain its strong philosophy on quality merchandise, service that is second to none, fair pricing, and strict attention to detail. Some of the existing customers have been patrons extending back into the early 1900's as a testimony to this philosophy. It is a well earned source of pride for the Compton Family to have kept the business "in the family" all of these years. The entrepreneurial spirit continues to grow within the existing family members, much as it did in the late 1800's with Horace. The prospect for continued success is guaranteed well into the Twenty-First Century. Consult our skilled professional staff for all of your design and project questions. We’ll cut lumber and plywood or mill it to your specification...and we’ll do it by the board or carload.Delivery available.
