Trusted by Builders. Backed by Experience. 

For almost 50 years, Flinders Timber has been helping South Australian builders bring projects to life with quality products, practical expertise and dependable service.

As a family-owned business, we understand that success on site depends on more than materials alone. It requires trusted advice, reliable supply and people who understand the realities of the building industry. That's why generations of builders, trades, designers and developers continue to partner with Flinders.

From custom homes and renovations to large-scale residential developments, we provide the products, technical support and responsive service that help projects run smoothly from planning through to completion.
