Crafting Excellence Since 1988: Our Journey at Special Wood Inc.

Rooted in Quality

Beginning in a humble home garage near Wrightsville Beach, N.C., Special Wood has evolved from a small family business to a leading supplier of exterior trim and interior moldings. Serving the finest home builders in Southeastern North Carolina, we’ve been committed to providing not just products, but a legacy of quality and craftsmanship.

Special Wood’s story started with a simple yet profound mission: to offer high-quality cypress and cedar to local builders. As we grew alongside the booming regional housing market, our reputation for premium-grade lumber became our hallmark. Our commitment to excellence made us the go-to source for exquisite lumber needs.

Expanding Horizons: Innovating for Efficiency

In 1995, we revolutionized the building industry in our region with re-dried, treated lumber. This innovative product not only maintained our standard of quality but also significantly reduced the builders’ drying time and increased overall customer satisfaction.

Custom Solutions: Catering to Unique Visions

Responding to the evolving needs of the market, 1997 marked the formation of our Lumber Remanufacturing division. This venture allowed us to produce custom patterns designed by architects, further diversifying our offerings and enabling builders to deliver exceptional products to homeowners.

Joining Forces: Our Spacious New Facility

With increasing demand, Special Wood outgrew its initial location, leading to our move in 2006 to a spacious facility in northern New Hanover county. Here, operating in tandem with Lumber Remanufacturing, we’ve enhanced our efficiency and capacity to meet the growing needs of both builders and homeowners.
