Company Profile
Compton Lumber & Hardware has been helping build Seattle since 1892, founded to aid rebuilding after the Great Seattle Fire and now a fifth-generation family company operating from its Renton yard. More than 130 years in, we bring deep institutional knowledge to every order, serving residential, commercial and contractor customers across Seattle, Renton, Kent, Bellevue and the wider Puget Sound. Our full line spans hardwood lumber and plywood, softwood framing lumber and plywood, mouldings and millwork, hardboard and particle board, drywall, doors, insulation, concrete products and hardware, and we carry Makita tools. An in-house millwork and door shop handles custom cutting to spec, and we deliver to the jobsite. As one of the oldest continuously operating lumber yards in the metro, Compton pairs a century-plus of experience with the personal service of a true family independent. For lumber, millwork and hardware from a Seattle institution, builders trust Compton.

“We shifted our custom residential framing packages to Compton Lumber & Hardware last season. Their takeoff estimators are meticulous—they spotted a load-bearing transfer discrepancy in our drawings that would have cost us thousands in framing corrections. Elite service.”
“Their crane truck operators are the best in the business. Staged three heavy framing drops on a steep, narrow hillside lot with zero damage to the trees or neighbor's fence. Very dependable logistics dispatch.”
“Top-notch independent supplier counter. They don't just scan tags—they actually understand engineered wood and local code requirements. Whenever I call, I get direct answers on dispatch times and pricing buffers.”
