Professional Builder Services at DeWitt Lumber
Building Central Michigan since 1890. DeWitt Lumber is a family-owned lumber yard and builders supply company that works for professional builders, remodelers, and construction businesses across Central Michigan. Our staff can help you with your building project at every stage, whether you are framing a new home, putting up a pole building, or finishing a kitchen remodel.
Bring us your plans. We will get you a price, get you the product, and get it to your jobsite.
This page covers the pro services we offer: material sourcing, estimating, our trade program, jobsite delivery, contractor credit, commercial services, and blueprint services.
Material Sourcing: Standard and Specialty Building Products from One Local Supplier
DeWitt Lumber stocks the lumber and building materials you use every day, including dimensional lumber, treated lumber, trusses, siding, roofing, windows, doors, insulation, and decking. When your project calls for something we do not keep in the yard, our product specialists will track it down. We source specialty products through our supplier network so you make one call instead of five.
Our selection centers also give your customers a place to pick out kitchen and bath products, flooring, and finish materials with help from our designers. That keeps your homeowner clients moving and keeps your schedule intact.
Free Estimating and Material Take-Offs: Bid Faster and Order Accurately
Estimates and take-offs eat up hours you could spend on the job. Hand that work to us. Our experienced estimators will take your blueprints and produce a complete material take-off for new homes, garages, pole buildings, decks, sheds, and remodeling projects.
Estimating is free for any project. You get an accurate material list and a firm price, so you can bid with confidence and avoid mid-project shortages or costly over-ordering.
What Does the DeWitt Lumber Trade Program Offer Professional Builders?
Our trade program is built around the way contractors actually work. As a pro customer, you get an experienced outside salesperson who knows your business, contractor pricing on the products you buy most, and priority scheduling on estimates and deliveries. You also get access to builder education and product knowledge training, so your crew stays current on new products and installation methods.
There is no gimmick to it. We have supplied Central Michigan builders for over 130 years, and the trade program is how we keep that relationship personal and hands-on.
Jobsite Delivery: The Right Equipment to Place Materials Safely Where You Need Them
Anyone can drop a bunk of lumber at the curb. We put materials where your crew can use them. Our delivery fleet includes:
That equipment means shingles go on the roof, drywall goes through the window, and framing packages land next to the foundation. Safe, convenient jobsite delivery saves your crew hours of handling time on every load. Call your salesperson to schedule delivery when you place your order.
Contractor Credit Application: Monthly Charge Accounts That Help You Manage Cash Flow
Cash flow is one of the biggest pressures a builder faces. A DeWitt Lumber contractor charge account lets you purchase materials throughout the month and pay on a single monthly statement. That keeps your projects moving while you wait on draws and customer payments.
Applying is simple. Request a credit application at any DeWitt Lumber location or from your outside salesperson. Once approved, you and your crew can charge purchases at the counter, over the phone, or through your salesperson.
Commercial Services: Material Support for Commercial and Agricultural Construction
DeWitt Lumber supplies more than residential jobs. We support commercial and agricultural construction throughout Central Michigan with the same estimating, sourcing, and delivery services our residential builders count on. Our staff can quote material packages for commercial buildings, agricultural structures, and pole buildings, and our delivery equipment handles the larger loads these projects require. If your project has a spec sheet, bring it in. We will price it.
Blueprint Services: Plotting, Printing, and Design Assistance
Good projects start on paper. Our design staff can help you get your thoughts, ideas, and wishes onto paper, and select DeWitt Lumber locations can plot and print blueprints in-house. Need extra sets for the permit office, your subs, or your customer? We print them. Need design assistance on a garage, deck, or pole building before you quote it? We can help with that too, and the finished drawings feed straight into our free estimating service.
