About Us Report

It was the entrepreneurial savvy of businessman John Cutter that launched the beginnings of Holt & Bugbee. In 1825, Cutter sought to establish a sawmill for rough cutting Mahogany logs in Charlestown, Massachusetts. Armed with nothing more than a strong knowledge of the trade and a single, but powerful, idea, Cutter struck a bargain where he would supply an equally industrious sea captain with much-needed block ice. The captain would deliver the ice to South America and, on Cutter's behalf, exchange it for rough Mahogany.

Species Report

Holt & Bugbee sells hardwood lumber that has been graded according to the exacting specifications of the National Hardwood Lumber Association (NHLA). The result is the most perfect grading possible with very little human error. Pine lumber grades differ from hardwood and fall under the jurisdiction of the Northeastern Lumber Manufacturers' Association (NELMA).

Flooring Report

One of a home's most prominent features is its floors. The abiding look of a wide plank hardwood floor adds natural beauty and enhances the character of any room. Holt & Bugbee offers a diverse range of the finest domestic and imported hardwoods in a custom variety of species, grades and widths. Our long history in the hardwood industry allows us access to mills that saw the highest quality lumber available.

Great selection and quality lumber. Perhaps a little pricey but you definitely get what you pay for. Coming here for years and will continue to do so.

Poor quality products. Shipment was late and I was not told about the many defects in my lumber. Overall would not recommend.
