We exist to change the standard for timber. Permanently
Wood is humanity’s oldest trusted building material. We’re the firm rebuilding the world’s confidence in it, one structure engineered to outlast us all.
Redefining timber construction with global excellence
Timber Restoration Services was founded in 2005 to set a new global standard for excellence in timber structure construction, restoration, and education.
We are more than builders, executing your designs and drawings. Instead, we are pioneers, constantly challenging our own methods, and industry standards, to find better ways to construct, repair, and restore timber structures. We’re also vertically integrated, we inspect, engineer, fabricate, and install with our own people, under one accountable roof.
Our unsurpassed focus on quality has earned global recognition. TRS is the only wood structure repair firm in the world to receive an ISO 9001 certification, which means we have consistently demonstrated our ability to deliver products and services that meet and exceed regulatory requirements.
We will bring our industry-defining innovation and quality standards to your project, whether it’s a state-of-the-art new mass timber construction project or a heritage structure another firm told you couldn’t be saved.
The end result will be an aesthetically beautiful, structurally sound, and environmentally sustainable structure that will stand for the next generation and beyond.
Of combined experience in timber construction across our team.
Patents behind our timber engineering and construction methods.
Timber structure projects completed in 55 countries across 6 continents.
The engineering behind our work
Engineering, testing, and design are provided by our engineering firm, Wood Research and Development (WRD), an IAS-accredited engineering and testing practice.
How we approach the work, each other, and our clients
The TIMBERS way is our method for approaching our work, our relationships with one another and our clients, and our daily lives.
Teamwork, do what it takes to move forward as one.
Innovation, strive to improve while pursuing new ideas.
Mindfulness, act with purposeful awareness of the impact of our actions.
Belonging, create a community committed to supporting each other to be their best.
Embracing safety, work with safety as the top priority.
Respect, welcome all input and treat everyone with civility.
Sustainability, build a better future in a responsible and meaningful way.
Engineering pedigree, not sales pitches
The work is led by the disciplines that make timber dependable, structural engineering, materials science, and master craft. A proprietary patent portfolio anchors the technology; the team carries it into the field.
Proprietary patented IP
40+ patents across reinforcement and decay-detection systems, the proprietary IP behind everything we build.
Structural engineers
Load-path analysis, capacity design, and certification documentation your reviewers can sign off on.
Master timber crews
The hands that assemble, load-test, and install every structure to the tolerance the engineering demands.
Certification you can audit, not just take our word for
Our ISO 9001 quality management system governs every assessment, design, and build, the governance signal public-sector and engineering buyers look for before they commit.
One standard, wherever the work is
Australia
Queensland operations supporting shire councils and infrastructure owners across the eastern seaboard.
Canada
Manufacturing and offices in Cranbrook, BC and Hillsborough, NB, shop-building for Canadian projects since 2015.
United States
Our climate-controlled fabrication facility in Jefferson, Oregon, one of our shop-build and load-test facilities.
Wherever the work is
Our three offices are the base, but our projects span 55 countries across 6 continents. Wherever your timber structure stands, we get there.
