Northern Log Supply
Building Supplies Companies in Oakland County, MI
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 January 2017
“I own a great log home but the contractor I used to initially build it installed his own raw pine "log home" type deck handrails which rotted within 10 years. When looking for repairs, very few contractors could do it, much less had the materials to replace the log rails. Finding Northern Log Supply was wonderful. They have a great variety of Cedar log home components and handrails. This company answered all my e-mail questions and offered tech assistance when asked. I sent my dimensions in and Northern Log sent me components for several sections of cedar log handrails that were attractive and very well crafted. I chose to assemble the handrail components myself and found their materials to be accurately cut and finished. It took a rubber mallet, a couple of days and a simple brace to pound the handrails together (no connecting hardware was needed, just pintels pressed into the pre-drilled holes) after I stained/preserved all the parts (Northern Log would have pre-finished and pre-assembled the handrails for a reasonable fee if I had wanted that). Everything fit great and looks terrific, very good match to those handrails that were still existing on my home. I recommend this company to all log home owners who need repairs or addition components for the building.”

“We hired JWS to order and install our whole house Jeld Wen windows. They did an excellent job explaining our options, ordering, installing, and doing the outside trimwork. Everything turned out wonderful, I couldn't have asked for better results. We had one issue later with 1 window, and they were able to contact Jeld Wen for us and get us a replacement piece. I have recommended them to many people asking about windows.”

He is very personable in his approach, timely with return calls, able to share a lot of product knowledge and is willing to go the extra mile for his customers.

What should I consider when choosing building materials?


One of the biggest challenges when building or renovating a home is deciding where to spend and where to save on building materials. One way to balance your spend is to use more expensive building materials, such as stone, timber panelling, and rain screens, sparingly, or to substitute a lower installation cost for a higher material cost.

When comparing costs, also take into account energy efficiency and lifespan. Some windows, for example, are more energy efficient than others; and while they may have a bigger price tag, the savings you make from insulation will, over time, offset the higher upfront cost. The same goes for timber flooring – often the cheaper the material, the sooner it will need to be replaced.

Raw materials and how they’re applied – including everything from metal roofing and timber panelling, to board-formed concrete and porcelain tiles – can provide infinite design possibilities. If you’re working with an Oakland County, MI builder, architect or designer, they will likely have favourite building materials they like to work with, as well as favourite suppliers. Ask them for examples of how the material has been used in past projects, and seek out alternatives for comparisons.

Questions to ask a supplier of timber and building materials in Oakland County, MI:


  • Where do you source your supplies from?
  • How is your timber harvested?
