Winell Lee Lumber Company

About Winell Lee Lumber Company

Winell Lee Lumber Company is a sawmill and hardwood business in Baxter, Tennessee, in Putnam County. The family has been in the business since the 1930s, when Isaac Lee opened a sawmill there, and the company has passed through five generations of the Lee family since. The mill works in hardwood and softwood, and the business describes itself as a "single-source hardwood specialist" that handles "everything from logging to the finished product." Products made from the logs include lumber square stock, flooring, paneling, siding, mouldings, mantels and columns, stairs, and rough lumber. The company serves Upper Cumberland, Nashville, and Knoxville and the surrounding areas. This is a business built around turning logs into finished wood products on site, from the tree to the board in your hand, rather than one that buys standing timber off a landowner's tract. A landowner in Putnam County or nearby who wants their timber sawn into usable lumber, flooring, or trim, and who likes the idea of working with a mill that has been run by the same family for generations, is the kind of person this suits.
