About Us
Muskoka Timber Mills (MTM), based in Bracebridge, has a 30 year history servicing the Ontario custom wood products market. Our products include an exterior branded siding line called Timberthane, custom wood cladding for ceilings and floors as well as most other finished wood products used in the building industry. We work with the top architects in North America and through this we have curated a portfolio of industry leading wood products that get sold in high end and custom building applications in Muskoka and across Ontario.
The Company was recently purchased by a group of energetic entrepreneurs that also own a number of other building products companies in Ontario. Under the new ownership group, MTM has spent the last year investing in foundational elements such as a new ERP and job costing platform as well as laying the seeds for substantial sales growth (new website launching end of October, a cutting edge Bracebridge showroom, new showroom / sales office in Parry Sound). This is an exciting time at MTM and we look forward to adding operational talent to help take the business to the next level. MTM has a fantastic and dedicated workforce. Although MTM operates with 65 people it still feels like a family business with a culture of inclusiveness. In fact, there are company wide lunches provided for all staff on Thursdays!
