Labrador Lumber Company, Inc is a sawmill in Berkshire, New York, on Mill Street. They mill lumber right on site and sell it straight to the customer, working with hardwood timber.

Their own words for the work are "There are a variety of products milled on our site, sold directly to you." They also describe their goods as "Quality products at attainable prices."

If you are building and need a contractor, they say they can share their list of log and timberframe builders, so this looks like a place set up for people building with wood more than one buying standing timber off a woodlot. This fits a landowner who already has logs to turn into lumber, or who wants a log home, siding, flooring, or similar milled from hardwood, rather than someone looking for a forester or logger to come mark and cut trees still standing in the woods.

How much is my timber worth in Tioga County?
Nobody can tell you what your timber is worth without walking it. Value depends on the species, the size and grade of the trees, how thickly they stand, the ground conditions and how easily a logger can reach them. Anyone who quotes you a figure without seeing the land is guessing, and a guess in that direction is rarely in your favour.
What stumpage value means →Do I need a forestry consultant to sell timber in Tioga County?
You do not have to use one. A consulting forester works for you rather than the buyer, marks the timber, runs a sealed-bid sale and typically charges a percentage of the sale. Research from several state extension services has found that timber sold through a consultant often returns enough more to cover the fee, though results vary by tract and by market. The decision usually turns on the size of the sale and whether you have sold timber before.
