About · Since 1981

Over 45 years of real wood in Colorado Springs

CO Lumber started in 1981 as an unfinished furniture store with a one-person woodworking shop. Today it is one of the largest hardwood retailers and custom woodworking facilities in El Paso County, still locally owned and still on Stone Avenue.

The story

From a one-person shop to one of the largest hardwood retailers in El Paso County

Founded in 1981, CO Lumber began as a humble unfinished furniture store with a one-person woodworking shop and a simple mission: build quality products and ensure every customer received exactly what they envisioned. That commitment to craftsmanship and personalized service quickly earned the trust of homeowners, contractors, and woodworkers throughout the community.

As CO Lumber’s reputation grew, so did its opportunities. In 2001, the company joined forces with Rocky Mountain Cabinets, a respected local business that shared the same dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and customer satisfaction. Together, they expanded their capabilities while staying true to the values that built their success.

Over the years, CO Lumber has become one of the largest hardwood retailers and custom woodworking facilities in the El Paso County area. From premium hardwoods and custom cabinetry to architectural millwork and specialty woodworking, the company has earned a reputation for exceptional products and dependable service.

Today, CO Lumber remains locally owned and operated, continuing to grow while investing in new products and services. Our offerings now include custom millwork, a large selection of domestic and exotic live-edge slabs, premium hardwoods, and a wide variety of high-quality cabinetry lines to meet the needs of homeowners, builders, designers, and craftsmen alike.

More than four decades after opening our doors, our commitment remains unchanged: deliver exceptional quality, expert craftsmanship, and outstanding customer service on every project. We are proud of our history, grateful for the relationships we’ve built, and excited to continue serving our community for many years to come.
