Over 100 Years of Building Vancouver: The Legacy & Future of Kerrisdale Lumber Contractor Division
Vancouver’s landscape is defined by its craftsmanship, from restored heritage homes in Shaughnessy and modern infill developments in Kitsilano to custom builds along the North Shore. Behind generations of iconic West Coast architecture stands a trusted local partner: Kerrisdale Lumber.
For over a century, Kerrisdale Lumber has grown alongside the city. What began as a community-focused neighborhood hardware store has evolved into a powerhouse for tradespeople: the Kerrisdale Lumber Contractor Division. Operating from our Marpole storefront and expansive building supply yard at 76th Avenue and Oak Street, we provide local builders with the materials, logistics, and expertise required to bring ambitious projects to life.
Here is how our century-long heritage and modern contractor services help Vancouver builders stay on schedule, on budget, and ahead of the curve.
Built on Tradition, Driven by Innovation
In an industry where delays cost time and money, having a reliable building material supplier is crucial. Under the leadership of the Perry family, including Mark Perry, Tremayne Perry, and Lyle Perry, Kerrisdale Lumber has continually modernized while remaining true to our founding values.
We’ve paired traditional West Coast woodworking knowledge with modern logistics technology. Whether you need specialized structural timber for a complex residential build or bulk framing materials delivered to a tight urban job site, our team bridges the gap between old-world craftsmanship and modern construction speeds.
“We don’t just supply materials. We build relationships based on trust, reliability, and a shared passion for craftsmanship.”
